Gently is a calm, emotionally supportive space for people who are overwhelmed, anxious, or simply in need of a moment of peace. I’ve been dreaming of building an app like this — one that supports emotional recovery without pressure or judgment. The soft green aura throughout the design represents healing and balance, while the Hamsa symbol acts as a spiritual protection icon, reminding users that they are safe and seen here.
I designed Gently with empathy, focusing on a soothing user experience that encourages mindfulness without overwhelm. The UI features soft colors, rounded elements, and gentle typography to create a peaceful atmosphere. Wireframes were thoughtfully structured to ensure ease of navigation, and the branding choices were made to foster trust, calm, and emotional connection for all users.

Gently taught me how design can be emotionally supportive. I learned how subtle choices — like shape, color, and pacing — can create a sense of peace. I'd love to build out the app further with user flows and more wellness-focused features.
