The brief

Mental health is a category where a slick site actively works against you. The design leans quiet and clinical on purpose — hand-coded rather than dropped into a builder, so the motion could be tuned to the subject matter: slow, settled, nothing that jumps at you.

Mid-project, the client renamed the brand — SoberScience became PsyConscious. Identity, domain strategy, and site copy all pivoted with it: the old domain 301-redirects to the new one, so nothing that had been built or indexed was lost.

How we did it.

3 steps, from brief to launch.

  1. 01

    Design for a wary visitor

    Earn trust by not performing.

    A restrained identity and layout system that reads as structured and professional — closer to a practice than a landing page.

  2. 02

    Hand-code the calm

    Make the motion match the therapy.

    Hand-written HTML/CSS/JS with GSAP, deployed on Netlify — every transition slow and settled, tuned like a breathing exercise rather than a product demo.

  3. 03

    Survive the rename

    Rebrand mid-flight without losing the launch.

    When SoberScience became PsyConscious, the identity and copy pivoted and the legacy domain was 301-redirected — same site, new name, SEO intact.

The result

A calm, credible practice site that outlived its own rebrand.
