Project Description

Project Description

Marra is a daily mood-based online platform for female identifying and non-binary solo travelers to meet with like minded travelers spontaneously, and to safely and memorably immerse themselves in the local activities of a city.


Nine smartphones are displayed on a purple background, each showing a dating app interface. The screens display various profiles with photos and text, including “It’s a CONVERSATION,” “TODAY IS A DAY TO SHARE,” “FRIENDS WITH A PURPOSE,” and “TODAY IS A DAY TO SHARE.” The phones are arranged in a grid pattern, with some showing partial views.



Six square images are arranged in a 2x3 grid, each showing a screenshot of a Marra app interface. Each screenshot displays a unique image and text. The top row features images: “OUR SOULO STORY,” “Mornings Hikes,” and “THROUGH THE LOCAL EYE.” The bottom row shows: “UNEXPLORED,” “BUCKETLIST ACTIVITIES FOR TWO IN NYC!” and “OUR SOULO STORY.” All screenshots include “marra_app” in the top left corner and standard icons for liking, commenting, and sharing.



Three screenshots from Instagram Stories are displayed side by side. The leftmost screenshot shows a woman in a denim jacket and sunglasses, reacting with open mouth. The center screenshot depicts two women, one on a skateboard and the other holding her hand, walking on a paved path. The rightmost screenshot shows a woman sitting on grass with a stack of bricks, overlaid with “BEST EVENTS NYC TODAY.” Each screenshot includes text bubbles with messages and location tags.



The logo features the word "MVARRA" in a stylized black font, with the "M" slightly curved. Below it, the text "SOLO TOGETHER" is written in a smaller, simpler font. The background is a solid purple color.



A triptych of images shows three distinct scenes: a white t-shirt with a cactus design and the text "Solo Alone Thrive Together," a white tote bag with the text "Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo Together Solo



A purple background features a white box with questions and answers. The top question asks, “What do you feel like doing?” with options eating, relaxing, sightseeing, physical activity, entertainment, and vocational skills. The bottom question asks, “Which time best suits you?” with options morning, afternoon, and evening.



A poster on a tiled wall displays a collage of photos featuring people in various poses. The text “SOLO ALONE” appears at the top, and “THRIVE TOGETHER” at the bottom. The poster is framed in black and includes logos for Mwatta and JFK Airport. A black signboard to the right displays the same text and logos. The wall is composed of white square tiles.



A silver subway train car with a purple advertisement for the movie "Solo Together" mounted on its side. The ad features four people sitting together on a bench and includes the tagline "Have twice the fun exploring New York!" and the Warner Bros. logo. The train car has multiple windows and a metal handrail is visible beside the advertisement.
