Metronational
MetroNational is a real estate developer and operator with more than 10 million square feet of mixed-use assets spanning office, retail, hospitality, dining, and healthcare. At the center of its portfolio is Memorial City, a 300-acre district that has shaped West Houston for more than 70 years through long-term planning, steady growth, and continuous reinvestment.

More than just Memorial City Mall, MetroNational is a collection of destinations, properties, and experiences that have helped shape West Houston for over seven decades. When it came time to redesign the website, the goal wasn’t reinvention, but refinement — modernizing a digital platform we originally built years earlier to better support the company’s evolving portfolio.
Structure Informed by Identity
The website’s grid draws from the three-blade geometry of the MetroNational logo. Content, spacing, and modular layouts were organized in repeating groups of three to create visual consistency and reinforce the brand language throughout the site.
Motion with Intent
Interactions were designed around the ideas of growth, scale, and openness. Links enlarge on hover, navigation expands outward, and motion cues help guide attention while reinforcing the brand’s broader visual language.

Memorial City is a 300-acre mixed-use district in West Houston encompassing retail, hospitality, dining, healthcare, office, and public spaces. Developed in under three weeks, the website leveraged MetroNational’s existing platform architecture as the foundation, allowing the team to focus on refining navigation, content structure, and the overall user experience across a large and constantly evolving destination.

Storytelling at Scale
To support rapid leasing and business development efforts, more than 100 modular presentation templates were developed into a flexible slide library.

memorial cityzen

Memorial Cityzen is a monthly print and digital newsletter designed to communicate events, new openings, and seasonal programming across Memorial City. Each issue adopted a distinct visual theme tied to major activations or seasonal moments, using editorial layouts, photography, and structured content to maintain consistency across both print and email formats.






The digital newsletter adapted the print edition into a mobile-friendly email format. Editorial spreads were restructured into modular content blocks to improve readability, responsiveness, and navigation across devices.
Evolving the Identity
The original Cityzen identity drew from the thin contour lines of the Memorial City logo, but over time the mark felt too visually restrained as a publication header. The updated version introduced heavier typography and stronger contrast, creating a more confident and recognizable presence across both print and digital formats.
