Tide
Designing a calmer productivity experience focused on intentional work, clear planning, and fewer distractions.
The challenge
Helping users focus on what actually matters.
Traditional productivity apps often encourage users to manage more tasks, notifications, and information. The challenge was to create a simpler experience that helps users prioritize, plan their time, and stay focused without unnecessary visual noise.
My approach
Less tasks. More focus.
I designed the product around a simple principle: instead of encouraging users to do more, help them focus on the right things. The experience combines task management, visual planning, and dedicated focus sessions into one simple workflow.

The result
A calmer approach to productivity.
Tide turns task management into a more intentional
experience by limiting noise and focusing attention on
what matters most.
The project allowed me to explore the full product design
process — from concept and user flows to high-fidelity UI,
design system, and interaction states.
