Pledge Website

 

Simplifying sustainability in logistics

 

Pledge is an accredited platform that simplifies the complexities of carbon measurement for the logistics industry.

2025

Pledge’s website had started to feel out of date — it didn’t reflect the maturity of the product or the brand. The business had also grown, and now had two distinct offerings — one for logistics service providers, and one for shippers — but the old site didn’t support that split.

I began by collaborating with illustrator Ivan Mesaroš to refine Pledge’s brand illustration style, ensuring it aligned with their mission of simplifying sustainability. With a focus on clean lines, motion, and clarity, the updated style helped depict complex challenges more effectively.

This evolution set the foundation for the website refresh, where I crafted every element—from custom iconography to illustration—to create a cohesive and engaging digital experience that reinforces Pledge’s brand identity.

The modular design system ensures consistency, scalability, and efficiency. The reusable components create a cohesive look while making updates and expansions seamless, keeping the site adaptable to evolving needs.
