Build & Bloom

Build & Bloom is a mindful growth companion that helps young-adults cultivate healthier digital habits. When users place their phone in the dock, it detects their disconnection and nurtures virtual flowers within the paired app. As their time away from screens grows, the flowers blossom, and the dock itself ‘blooms’ in harmony, creating a tangible reflection of personal-growth. By linking action with both physical and digital feedback, Build & Bloom turns moments of mindful pausing into flourishing. The shared garden and goals features extend this growth beyond the individual, fostering collective wellbeing as friends encourage and support each other’s progress.
