A place to begin
Pick individual stems or start with a ready-made bouquet.
FLOWERS FOR YOU / PERSONAL PROJECT
A little care,
in full bloom.
I designed a playful way to make a digital bouquet, add a personal note, and send it as a gift. A self-initiated exploration of how a small online gesture can feel thoughtful and personal.
Make a bouquet
01 / A SMALL GESTURE
Something you choose.
Something they can open.
The idea was simple: make sending digital flowers feel more personal than sharing a picture. The person giving the bouquet chooses the stems, adjusts the arrangement, picks the wrapping, and adds their own words.
I shaped the experience around two people: someone making a gift, and someone receiving it. The first needs freedom to experiment. The second needs a lovely, effortless moment.
A little more you
Arrange, wrap, and add a note in your own words.
A moment for them
Share a link to a gift they can unwrap, without signing in.
Small choices, intentional interactions
Design + working productMake the first choice easy.
A blank canvas can be a lovely invitation—or one more decision. I included individual flowers, four ready-made arrangements, and “Choose for me.” Each is a starting point people can make their own.
Give people control without making it feel like work.
Flowers can be moved, rotated, and layered directly in the bouquet. Keyboard and button controls offer another way to arrange. Undo, reset, and a saved draft make experimentation reversible.
During hands-on review, disconnected stems broke the illusion of a real arrangement. I refined how each illustration meets its stem so the flower moves as one piece.
Keep the personal touches in focus.
I organized the maker into five clear steps: stems, arrangement, wrapping, note, and preview. A persistent bouquet preview connects each choice to the finished gift. Botanical artwork, soft paper colors, and restrained motion carry the warmth.
Design the receiving moment, too.
The recipient opens a shared link and unwraps the bouquet to reveal a note. There’s no account to create, and the animation can be skipped. A text description offers another way to experience the gift.
A shared gift keeps the arrangement as it was when sent. Later edits to the sender’s draft don’t change it, and the sender can deactivate the link from the device that created it.
03 / MAKE, TRY, REFINE
Playfulness is in the details.
I used AI-assisted development and illustration to take the concept into a working product, then refined it through hands-on interaction review across desktop and mobile. The work connected visual direction, interaction design, and the practical details of saving and sharing.
The next step is research with people making and receiving a bouquet: where they hesitate, which starting point they choose, and whether the reveal feels personal.
WHAT I TAKE FORWARD
Try Flowers for You The freedom to play works best when the next step is clear and every choice feels easy to undo.
