The ASMR Discovery App
Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) is an experience caused by certain audio or visual stimuli. This experience is characterized by a static “tingly” sensation felt throughout the head, neck, and sometimes travels down the spine. As someone who frequently experiences this odd sensation, I aimed to design a branding and mobile app concept that encompasses the needs of someone looking to experience these sensations by creating a comforting yet playful mobile experience.

The Logo
The logo concept was based on the idea of having your head in the clouds. With this, imagery related to peacefulness and the mind inspired the direction. The goal was to maintain flexibility and legibility on multiple platforms while presenting these aspects.
