Case Study - Stillwater
Stillwater is a digital wellness platform designed to help users track their mood and sleep, connect with therapists and build healthier habits.
Overview
Taking care of your mental health and wellbeing can sometimes feel very overwhelming when there are so many things to keep track of.
The goal was to create a visually calm and approachable experience that helps users find support and make progress toward their goals.
I worked across the full design process, from creating brand identity to designing the interface. My main focus was on buliding a cohesive brand and creating an intuitive experience.
User personas
I created personas to understand users’ core needs and behaviors. This helped me prioritize the features that would be the most valuable to users.
Visual Design
I created a visual identity that feels calm and approachable while keeping the interface easy to navigate. I kept the typography, colors and components consistent across the entire platform.
I also designed key screens around different stages of the user journey. New users are able to explore the platform, browse the sessions library and explore therapists before signing up. They then complete a short assessment and select a plan to create their personalized dashboard.
For returning users, the dashboard provides a space to keep track of their wellbeing and access the main features. I structured it to make frequently used tools and personal progress easy to find.
