Daily affirmation app concept
An exploration of a visual style that captures the unwavering optimism and trust in technological progress reminiscent of the 1950s, but with a greater emphasis on mindfulness. A loose riff on #dailyui challenge #1
In my quest to hone my rapid-fire visual design skills and indulge in concept ideation, I stumbled upon UI Daily's first challenge. The task was to create a sign-up page for an imagined product or event. Little did I know that this initial prompt would spark an idea that I couldn't help but fall in love with.
Inspired by the aesthetics of retro-futurism and driven by a modern approach to mindfulness, I decided to explore an onboarding flow that let me shirk the usual constraints of pushing a product. Just for fun? What a concept.
Unleashing the Retro-Futuristic Vibes: To capture the unmistakable spirit of the "nuclear era" era, I turned to the Astro font for my header. Its bold and distinctive style instantly transported me back to the optimism and wonder of the 1950s. For the body text, I opted for the sleek and highly-legible Roboto font. Its slimline structure perfectly complements Astro, creating a harmonious blend of retro and contemporary elements.
A Mindful Twist on Retro-Futurism: As I ventured further into this visual exploration, I decided to infuse a modern touch by embracing the principles of mindfulness. With a conscious effort to keep the layout light, airy, and minimalistic, I aimed to create a user experience that instills a sense of calm and focus. While considering the addition of a dark mode for this design, I chose to retain the current light palette to align with the mindful approach.
Future Explorations: The cosmic journey doesn’t end here. It’s been a really long time since I dedicated time to just have fun, and I’m eager to continue expanding this concept. In the near future, my plans involve incorporating animated elements to bring further life and interactivity to the app. Additionally, I have my sights set on implementing a dark mode, ensuring a dynamic and immersive experience for users across different preferences and environments.
The potential for a comprehensive app dashboard also holds promise, offering users a centralized hub to explore and engage with the whimsical absurdity and positive affirmations that define this unique concept.
All space puns aside, I’m excited to see where this wild little one-off project takes me.
