Freedom Diaries
About the initiative
Freedom Diaries is an educational and cultural platform created to help Ukrainian children discover their creativity, courage, and sense of inner freedom.
This is a space where:
- culture, education, and children’s creativity are combined;
- stories that inspire and support are born;
- every child can feel that their voice matters.
The main idea of the project is to create a warm, humane digital ecosystem that heals, inspires, and gives a sense of space.
The purpose of the Freedom Diaries website
As part of the project, we created a modern website that:
- conveys the values of Freedom Diaries — lightness, freedom, sincerity;
- structuredly introduces users to the initiatives;
- forms a space for communication with children, families, and teachers;
- allows you to feel an atmosphere of warmth and trust through minimalistic visual solutions.
Design that conveys emotion
Freedom Diaries is about lightness. About the feeling that the site “breathes”. That is why in the design we used:
- minimalism and clean forms, where typography is the main accent;
- light graphic elements that create a feeling of space;
- white background and soft shades that enhance the theme of freedom, warmth and trust;
- visual language that helps focus on stories and meanings.
Challenges and UX solutions
The challenge was to find a balance between artistic emotion and functionality. The site had to be both warm and practical, emotional and structured.
Our solutions:
- created an interface that is not overloaded, but has character;
- thought out logical transition scenarios for children, parents, and teachers;
- provided easy immersion in content: from drawings to educational materials;
- adapted the design and structure to the short development time.
The meanings we conveyed in the design
The site should not just be convenient, but one that speaks to children and adults in the language of trust and gentleness. During the work, we were inspired by the phrase that became the symbol of the project:
“Culture is our common wings. And happiness is when we use them.” (this is how to highlight it.. or put it in italics, or something like that)
This idea is embedded in every page, every detail of the interface.
A collaborative project
The Freedom Diaries website is the result of teamwork: designers, copywriters, cultural managers and the initiative team. Together we formed the structure, prepared the content, processed the photo materials and UX-flow, which made the platform what it is — warm, light and honest.
Technical implementation
The platform is created on WordPress with custom functionality adapted to the needs of the initiative:
- individual templates for section pages;
- lightweight modules for educational materials and coloring books;
- adaptive design for comfortable viewing from any device;
- the ability to scale to new programs and areas of activity.
Freedom Diaries is more than a website.
This is a digital space that supports Ukrainian children, inspires families and teachers, and helps them find warmth and peace in difficult times.
Freedom Diaries is a place where children can feel: the world is big, and dreams are real.
