TSUNDOKU
A community-driven book sharing app that lets neighbors lend, swap and give away books — because a good book deserves more than one reader.

Problem
Books often sit forgotten while nearby readers may want exactly that title.
The product opportunity is not simply listing books. It is making local sharing feel easy, safe and emotionally worthwhile.
Research
4 interviews · 20 survey responses
The research focused on reading habits, past sharing behavior and how people feel about exchanging books with strangers.
Solution
If readers had an easy way to make their library available to others nearby, they would be more willing to share books.
Design System · High Fidelity
A warm, low-friction interface for a human exchange.
A cohesive visual language transformed research insights into a polished, intuitive interface that feels warm, trustworthy, and effortless to use.
Prototype video · High Fidelity
AI-assisted storytelling prototype created with Google Flow to bring Mara’s Tsundoku journey to life.
