## The task

BYRD is a digital assistant and travel navigator that supports users through every stage of their journey — from the first spark of inspiration to the moment they return home. It is more than just a planner or a map: it is an ecosystem that thinks alongside the traveller, helps make decisions, and makes the entire trip easier, more flexible and more enjoyable.

The product goal was stated as building a convenient, intuitive and technological platform that brings planning, organising and accompanying a trip into one place — without having to jump between different apps and services.

There was no client and no brief here: the agency built the concept itself.

## The solution

The name came before the interface. The app is named after Richard Evelyn Byrd, the American aviator and polar explorer. We put it in one line: a name is a story, and every story begins with a name.

The mark grew out of the name. The logo symbolises both the many paths a person encounters on their journey and a bird with outstretched wings, soaring toward discovery and new experiences. The mark is built from three crossing bars and reads as a crossroads and as a silhouette in flight at once.

Visually the project sits on a light base with a single bright orange and a system of tile-cards: city, air humidity, dates and travel-scenario tags — active, sport, detox, rest.

## What we did

**Selections by interests.** Choosing a trip by your current state: if you're looking to relax and recharge, the app offers destinations perfect for complete unwinding and digital detox — slow-paced and stress-free. If you're chasing adventure, you'll find more extreme routes designed for active travel and vivid experiences.

**Personal recommendations.** All trips are saved in the profile, and the system analyses preferences to recommend destinations more accurately: the more you travel, the better the app understands what you enjoy.

**Pix, the AI assistant.** A character of its own with a pixel avatar, introducing itself as the AI there to help pass the time on holiday.

**Secret location.** A format in which one destination stays a surprise until the very end: where you are flying and where you will be staying is revealed only at the moment of boarding. The interface carries the warning outright — this travel format is extreme and suitable only for experienced travellers.

**Profile.** A traveller's card with the statistics: distance covered, cities explored, days on the road, longest trip, favourite destination and the country visited most often.

**Awards.** An achievement system: missions from the AI assistant, a rising rating and unlocked opportunities — including access to secret locations and additional app features. The first stamp is given for the first country outside your homeland.

**Notifications.** Status feeds: ticket's ready, new message, an alert counter.

## The result

A concept of 50+ screens covering a trip end to end: inspiration, selection, documents, support on the road and a return with the statistics collected.

The project was made by Ruslan Kochubarov, Aleksandr Zhukov, Kirill Pilipenko and Anfisa Naumova.
