Another concept from our archives that we're still proud of.
SYNTHH was our take on what an AI workspace assistant could feel like if it was designed around focus instead of constant notifications.
Instead of another chat interface, we explored a calmer experience with cinematic visuals, subtle motion, and an interface that fades into the background while helping you stay in flow.
We wanted every interaction to feel intentional, from the ambient UI to the conversational experience and the overall visual language.
It's always fun looking back at concepts like this and seeing ideas that are becoming more relevant today than when we first designed them.
Clean work!
Really appreciate it ❤️
An artistic and dark minimal designed assistant for work? Take my money!
Thanks a ton 🤩
Dark with clean layout. You nailed it.
Appreciate it 🤝
Amazing work!
Thanks! 🔥
You're welcome!
Designing SYNTHH around focus instead of notifications is a much more interesting AI assistant premise than another chat window. What interaction did the most to make the experience feel calm and cinematic?
Probably the restrained UI. We minimized visual noise, used plenty of negative space, and made the interface feel present without demanding attention.
The restraint in the ambient UI works really well.

Would love to hear your thoughts!
I’m designing an alert feature to help users monitor their parents' medication adherence. The goal is to notify children when a dose is missed, while also allowing them to view upcoming schedules, all without feeling too alarmist.
How would you balance this sense of urgency with a supportive, clear UI? I’d love to hear your thoughts on this design direction!
