Google Froggy

Google Weather has a face and a name: Froggy. This amphibious friend has sat alongside Google's Weather UI for over a decade and it was time for an expansive redesign. Alongside the in-house team at Oddfellows and a global band of artists, I directed an ownable style and a truly modular system to showcase every weather scenario imagineable alongside Froggy and his delightful universe. The suite of nearly 300 illustrations covers vast landscapes and countless activities, all to bring the weather a touch of delight. Keep your eyes trained to Google's mobile weather interface for a familiar Froggy face.

The system includes 12 immersive locations, 45 activities with adaptable wardrobe, and a range of 17 unique weather conditions. These illustrations fit seamlessly in a data rich environmentand crop perfectly across Mobile and Tablet.

In the early Style Development phase we developed three distinct styles that would marry with the latest Material Design and elevate Froggy for a more mature audience. The ultimate style is a hybrid between 'Simply Dimensional's' subtle three-dimensional forms & scenic depth, with the handmade watercolor treatment of 'Graphic Naturalism.'
