Wellnest

Wellnest Health came to us with a mission: to empower people to take charge of their mental wellness through a user-friendly mobile application. They envisioned an experience that felt calm, personal, and focused—free from the clutter and overwhelm that often plagues self-help apps.

‍

We kicked off with deep user research to uncover behavioral patterns and needs around mindfulness, journaling, and habit formation. From there, we designed an elegant and intuitive interface that promotes mental clarity while offering rich functionality beneath the surface. Every screen was crafted to reduce friction and build a habit loop through delightful interactions.
