Social Battery is a mood-based companion designed to adapt to how you feel throughout the day. Users check in with their mood, and suggests personalized activities—whether they need to relax, recharge, feel better, or stay productive. The goal is to turn small actions into positive daily progress through a playful and comforting experience.
Those mood characters carry it, the sad banana and stressed one read instantly before you even hit the label, which is exactly what a check-in needs. Since the greeting already says Good Morning, I would let time of day shape the suggestions so the same Tired at 9am and 9pm gets...
Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback! I really appreciate you pointing out how the mood characters communicate emotions instantly. The idea of making suggestions time-aware is especially interesting, and I'll definitely explore how my app can make mood check-ins feel more effortless and personalized.

The contrast here makes all the difference
EARTHTURN is a ceramics brand I hope to open one day. I'm not a potter. So I used FLORA to help me build the whole branding, from physical product to brand identity mockup around the idea.
FLORA was where I pushed the ideas and a strategy I already had in my head, and tested it until it held. So I'd have more time for the part that actually matters: the brand strategy.
Here's what I kept reminding myself while making the visuals. You create images to sell a product, not just to look good.
So every image should have a job.
It might be a logo evolving: a turning wheel, then fire, then a vessel, resolving into the mark. I wanted the logo to show where it comes from, not just sit there finished.
It might be the slow rotation effect for poster or social media posts, you can realise this effect when someone throws on a wheel, the movement the brand is named after. Not a trending effect that looks cool but says nothing about EARTHTURN.
It might be the close-ups images: the material, the pattern, the piece from different angles. A customer buys what they can see clearly. Pretty from a distance doesn't sell, texture you can almost feel does.
It might be the packaging shots that show the foam and wrapping: the piece protected, not a bare pot sitting alone in a cardboard box. You're not just selling a vase. You're selling care, and a product that arrives whole and unchipped.
That's what making images for a brand really means, not grabbing whatever composition looks nice and calling it done. If you can't say why a visual serves the brand, it's decoration, not design.
Building the full brand system before the pottery skills even exist is a bold order of operations. Now that EARTHTURN looks this real, does it make you more likely to actually go learn the craft, or is this more about seeing the idea through as a design exercise?
