🌲 Holiday Grief Companion — UX prototype
I designed a gentle holiday grief companion focused on humane, trauma-aware UX. Instead of forcing “cheer,” it creates space to slow down, remember, and breathe.
Design priorities • optional interactions, no streaks or pressure • soft language, no “fixing” tone • calm pacing and minimal motion • clear crisis resources presented respectfully • local only — nothing typed is collected or stored
Core flows • light-a-candle ritual with a simple log • winter journal with changeable prompts • quiet breathing animation • onboarding that sets expectations and boundaries
Open to feedback on tone, flow, accessibility, and ethical design choices.
