Prana Health & Wellness App - Brand Identity.

Optimising lifestyles, improving well-being.

Sanskrit meanings.

Following a branding session I delivered to a cohort of entrepreneurs on an accelerator program, two ambitious founders asked if I could help them by designing and shaping the brand for their new business.
The founders had decided to put the problem-solving skills they had developed in aerospace engineering to better use, with their innovative health-tech concept ‘Prana’. Designed to optimise lifestyles and improve well-being, the subscription-based app would provide users with personalised and qualified analysis, as well as actionable insights.
Tapping into the Sanskrit meanings of ‘Prana’ – life-force, vital energy, breath – and researching the symbolism associated with them, I designed an agile and versatile identity that would bring these ancient meanings into a digital context.

Valuable lessons.

Unfortunately, and after more than two years of dedication to the project, the complex rules and regulations of the healthcare sector proved an insurmountable barrier for the founders, specifically in terms of the level of funding needing to be raised. 
Prana did however create an important legacy, and that is in the valuable lessons learned that have completely changed the way these two smart individuals are now approaching their latest venture.
I wish them every success and have no doubt that they will succeed.
