Challenge
The challenge was to conceptualize and build a complete digital ecosystem from zero. How could we connect socially-conscious travelers with meaningful volunteering and donation opportunities in a single, transparent, and trustworthy platform, all while building a compelling brand identity from scratch?
Results
The result is a fully functional, deployed web platform with a complete and cohesive brand identity. The project successfully integrated three distinct user journeys (travel, volunteering, donation) into a single experience and was recognized for its ambition by being submitted to the 'Bal de projet Esprit' and participating in the Hedera Africa Hackathon.

Process
Branding & Strategy: We started by defining the brand's mission and values. This led to the creation of the complete brand identity, including the Miraviaspace logo, a unique color palette, and a full graphic charter (charte graphique).
UI/UX Design: Using Figma, we mapped out user journeys for travelers, volunteers, and donors. We then designed a complete, high-fidelity, and interactive prototype of the entire platform.
Full-Stack Development: Our development process covered two main components: a comprehensive web platform and a native desktop application. The entire web platform was built on the Symfony framework, which handled all logic and front-end rendering. To complement the web experience, we also developed a powerful companion desktop application using JavaFX.
Deployment & Management: The project concluded with a successful deployment to a live server on the miravia.space domain, making the platform publicly accessible.
“ Miraviaspace was more than a project; it was a mission to prove that technology could be a powerful force for social good. Seeing our idea go from a sketch in Figma to a live, deployed platform was an incredible journey. ”
