Sunflower is built around the idea that every sober day grows your garden, and a relapse costs you something. We designed the field switch animation to make that psychological loop visible and felt, not just understood.

The movement had to feel natural and meaningful, soft timing, nothing gamified or cheap, because a recovery app that feels like a slot machine loses the user's trust immediately.

The goal is to make progress feel real enough that users think twice before breaking their streak.

This started as another experiment with halftone, but I wanted the dots to have a reason for being there rather than simply applying the technique as a surface effect.

The thought was: what if the dots were actually seeds?

From there, the idea became Studies in Reproduction — playing with two meanings of reproduction at once. Halftone is a way of reproducing an image through repeated marks, while a flower reproduces itself through seeds.

So the flower gradually breaks down into thousands of seed-like “dots”, with tiny versions of the flower appearing among them. From a distance they behave like halftone; up close, you discover the image is effectively reproducing itself.

I wanted to see how the same visual system behaves with different flowers, crops and tonal treatments.

The double meaning of reproduction is the kind of concept that sounds simple in one sentence but is genuinely hard to execute without it reading as gimmicky, this pulls it off. Did any of the flowers or tonal treatments fail to hold up at the seed-dot scale, or did the system work cleanly across all of them?
