Production Technology

Restful was designed with Figma, using user-centered design methodologies, A/B testing, and iterative prototyping.

Design Challenge

The biggest challenge was balancing aesthetic appeal with functional accessibility. The day-to-night UI transition required extensive color testing to ensure smooth visual adaptation without abrupt shifts. Another challenge was integrating science-backed sleep and meditation principles into an interface that felt intuitive and engaging while minimizing cognitive load. Ensuring readability and inclusivity for diverse user demographics was also a key focus.

Project Duration

The project started in September 2023 in USA and finished in December 2023 in USA

Operation Flow

Restful App Operation Flow. Upon login, users are asked, "What brings you here today?" to personalize content. The home screen displays tailored sleep and meditation options. Users can: Select Meditation: Choose from guided mindfulness sessions. Start Sleep Routine: Pick from sleep stories or soothing sounds for deep rest. Background animations shift gradually, creating a calming transition to sleep, enhancing relaxation and mindful rest.

Research

This project involved qualitative research, usability testing, and color psychology studies to understand meditation and sleep behaviors. The research explored habit formation, cognitive load reduction, and engagement patterns, using semi-structured interviews with 14 participants. These findings shaped the app's adaptive interface and content personalization strategies.

Inspiration

It is designed to nurture mental and physical well-being, offering tailored content for both adults and children. By creating a calming bedtime ritual, Restful fosters long-term wellness, helping users achieve deeper rest and a more balanced life.
