The design process began with a half-day exploratory workshop with GoZen! to align on goals and gather feature requirements. From there, I led a series of internal, iterative whiteboarding sessions to explore ideas in higher fidelity, map out initial user flows, and refine the product’s structure before passing them to a UX designer to build out low-fidelity wireframes. Once the initial low-fidelity wireframes were approved, they were sent into user testing (via. UserTesting.com) and revised based on meaningful, user feedback.

As the feature set, user flows, and the UX were refined, I began crafting the brand identity for Jurna, shaping the visual language that would be used across the UI of the final product as well as all future Jurna marketing materials. Working closely with the client, I ensured the brand felt playful yet inclusive, thoughtfully designed to resonate with a diverse, gender-neutral audience ranging from ages 7 to 15.

As mentioned, once Jurna's brand identity was established and creative direction was set, final UI was handed off to a separate designer to complete. This final UI constitutes a majority of the app creative shown below.
