Neumorphism on mobile

Johnu Marattilvisual & brand1 min

This was a trial of neumorphism on mobile screens. I wanted to see how far mild shadows alone could carry the soft, extruded look, so most of the work was adjusting shadow properties in Figma until the elements looked pressed out of the surface rather than placed on it.

Each element gets two shadows, one light and one dark, so it seems to rise from the background or sink into it. The palette stays close in value on purpose; that low contrast is what gives neumorphism its soft feel.
