Mood Board
Justification: We want our application to feel readily accessible to everyone, fun, soothing, calm, and structured. We chose images that elicit comfort and tranquility. We wanted our app to feel like a hug. Calm, accessible design is how we want our product to feel. That is why we included stuffed animals, comfortable furniture, warm rugs, dogs, wholesome interactions, and happy sunshine. It is for everyone to use. We also wanted to have a pleasant color palette that was not overwhelming, but gave the app a kind, soft, personality. Most of our users have anxiety and self-image issues, so comfort is an absolute necessity for the feel of the app. We also want our users to feel like our app is trustworthy, which necessitates clean, organized design.
Style Tiles
Justification: For our style tile, we selected a font that we would typically associate with comfort like a spa or massage place. We also chose a soft color palette to ensure that we do not overwhelm our users. Many of the times our user opens our app, they will already be feeling stressed and overwhelmed. Therefore, we chose soothing colors and a calming style tile. We tried 2 different styles: one that is more professional and one that is more approachable. We will decide between a muted color palette so as not to overwhelm the user or a brighter, friendly palette to seem more approachable as according to our mood board.
