Giving screen time a new purpose?

Larry

2025 — now

Founding Designer

Larry was born from a simple but ambitious idea: turn children’s screen time into a space for creativity, learning and expression.


Context


Founded by parents, Larry is not another kids’ app. It combines a drawing tablet experience with a mobile application, designed to help children create, draw and explore while keeping the tactile pleasure of paper.


✨ Key question ✨


How can screen time become creative, active and meaningful without feeling digital?



My role


As founding designer, I shaped the product from the ground up, defining both the brand identity and the entire product experience.


From vision to execution, my work covered


✦ Brand foundations and visual language

✦ Product UX and UI for iPad

✦ Interaction patterns designed for children

✦ Alignment between physical experience and digital interface



Design principles


✔️ Turn the iPad into an activity notebook, not a gaming device

✔️ Keep the experience simple, calm and playful

✔️ Design interfaces adapted to children’s motor skills

✔️ Build a friendly, reassuring brand universe for both children and parents




💥 Impact


Larry transforms screen time into an active creative moment. Children draw, write and explore while parents regain confidence in digital learning tools. The product establishes a strong foundation for a scalable educational brand.


🥳 100% conversion rate in demo mode on the target audience (iPad + children aged 4-9)

____


Designing Larry was about more than building an app.
It was about giving screen time a new purpose: creative, tactile and meaningful.














Let’s make something

people will feel.
