The Brief
A Minimalist, Intentional Journal Designed for Everyday Wellness
Branding, Product Design, Art Direction
When Kathryn Sauser, founder of Pop Journals, came to Ambrose Marketing, she had a clear mission: to create a journaling experience that felt approachable, uplifting, and intentional, designed to support both personal reflection and fitness-focused routines. She envisioned a tool that could become part of her brand’s daily rhythm without overwhelming the user.
The goal was to develop a prompt-based journal that was equal parts functional and inspiring: something people would actually want to open each morning. The challenge? Balance structure with creativity, and minimalism with personality.
