Project description

This self-initiated meditation app was designed to help users build calm, clarity, and daily mindfulness. My goal was to create a soft, intuitive mobile experience that feels peaceful from the moment you open it. Clean visuals, gentle gradients, and clear flows guide users from stress to serenity in just a few taps.

Timeline

From early explorations to final designs all wrapped up in 1 week while juggling other creative projects on the side.

Background

This meditation app concept was born from a desire to create a safe, soft, and welcoming space for mindfulness. I wanted to explore a product that felt calming at first glance visually airy, emotionally gentle, and easy to navigate.

Process

This category details the step-by-step approach taken during the project, including research, planning, design, development, testing, and optimization phases.

Research & Planning

I explored popular wellness and mindfulness apps to understand what made users feel calm and connected. I also gathered aesthetic references that balanced clarity with emotional softness.

Design & Prototyping

I focused on warm gradients, rounded UI elements, and soft typography. Each screen was wireframed, then gradually layered with visual polish prioritizing ease of use and visual tranquility.

Implementation

This was a design-only project, so I created a clickable prototype in Figma to simulate core flows like onboarding and meditation session selection

Testing & Optimization

I conducted informal peer reviews and iterated on feedback around accessibility and layout clarity, ensuring each screen felt balanced and intuitive.

Solution

A calming interface with soft visuals and easy session access to help users relax and build mindfulness habits.

Personalized Sound Control

The sound screen gives users intuitive volume sliders for nature sounds and voice guidance — designed for seamless customization of each session’s ambiance without leaving the meditation flow.

Mindful Timing with Gentle Alarms

The alarm timer feature uses soft tones, minimal UI, and subtle animation to let users schedule sessions with peace of mind. It’s built to reduce cognitive load while reinforcing mindfulness habits.

Home Page: Calm, Clear, and Centered

The profile screen offers personalized access showing recently played sessions and premium features to unlock. It encourages continued use while balancing motivation with visual calm.
