What if reading worked the way modern life actually does?
The problem worth solving
Year: 2019
Scope: Concept, research, UX and UI design
Work done:
User interviews and surveys,
Problem definition around passive reading,
Feature ideation for active reading,
UX flows,
Mobile UI design
Consistent reading habits
The final concept resulted in a focused reading experience built around short sessions, active engagement, and visible progress. By aligning the design with real reading behavior, the app supports better concentration, improves recall between sessions, and helps users build a consistent reading habit that fits naturally into daily routines.
My contributions
I did not start by designing an app. I explored how people actually read, lose focus, and quit.
I owned this project end to end and treated it like a real product:
- Started from human behavior, short attention spans, broken focus, zero patience
- Defined the core problem through research on reading habits and cognitive load
- Designed the full experience from onboarding to daily reading sessions, questions, notes, and progress
- Turned learning theory into real mechanics like micro sessions, reflection prompts, and streaks
- Designed wireframes and high fidelity UI built for focus, clarity, and calm
- Iterated hard through critique and testing until the experience felt right
- Balanced theory, user needs, and real world constraints into something actually buildable
This project shows how I work.
Research first. Ideas second. Pixels last.
