Make criteria explicit
Asset, protocol, return type and period remain visible so every curve keeps a clear context.

Comparing historical returns of decentralized-finance assets through data, not short-term promises.
I created the DeFi Returns identity to give a technical financial product a clear, coherent and immediately recognizable presence.
The work started with the logo: a compact symbol designed to remain recognizable in an interface and as an application icon. I then built a palette around a bright purple on deep tones and defined how the identity could extend to editorial material, social media and mobile.
I then translated the identity into a product experience for selecting assets and protocols and comparing their historical returns over time.
The design work covered information architecture, data hierarchy, filters, chart reading and comparison states. The visual system had to preserve the density required for analysis without turning the interface into an unreadable dashboard.
Asset, protocol, return type and period remain visible so every curve keeps a clear context.
Charts, legends and tooltips allow people to inspect differences without losing the wider view.
The hierarchy separates selection, results and secondary actions without hiding the depth of the data.
Filters and the legend reorganize around the chart to preserve its use on a narrow screen.
