Airbnb Fellowship Project

Airbnb, Summer/Fall 2015

The fellowship project was an open ended personal project done alongside other project duties—a chance for the fellow to create something that reflects both Airbnb's values and the fellow's own interests. 

As a former nanny with interest in design for kids, I chose to focus my project on family travel with Airbnb. I spent my time conducting research and compiling a strategy for how Airbnb could improve the experience for families traveling on the platform.

Alongside the research pitch, I created a gift box to send to exceptional family-friendly hosts that includes a wooden puzzle with shapes based on real family-friendly Airbnb listings, a kid's guide to the local city, and a matching game to accompany the puzzle.
