I was going through a bunch of my files a fews days ago and came across an app design I made in May of 2014, which I had completely forgotten about. There aren’t many designs of mine that I love five years later, but this one definitely qualifies. It’s also funny that I put design notes in the sample files.
I didn’t end up making Awesome Note, or anything derived from this design but there’s a big part of me that wishes I had. I am keeping the color scheme close at hand though.
