The storyboard helped me to visualize *Priya Sharma's* daily journey and identify key moments where the app can seamlessly fit into her life and improve her commuting and nap-taking experience.

I began with pen and paper for quick idea generation and wireframing, which enabled me to think creatively and iterate much faster. By avoiding the distraction of design details, this approach ensures a solid foundation to build upon.

After sketching, I moved on to high-fidelity wireframing in Figma. These wireframes offer a detailed and realistic representation of the final product while remaining fast and inexpensive to iterate.

In the visual design phase, the primary focus was to transform the wireframes into polished, aesthetically pleasing screens that are both functional and visually engaging. This involved iterating on the initial wireframes and applying design principles to enhance usability and appeal.
