Empty State Page - Casual PM Software

Hi Guys,

This minimalist concept ties in the cute and sleepy visual with a fun, light-hearted theme about getting started with new projects, using the metaphor of "waking things up” in the UI.

Header:

• “Looks like things are a bit sleepy here.”

• Subheader: “Wake up your workflow by starting a new project!”

Main Visual Element:

The cute, sleepy character resting on a laptop. The character reinforces the idea that nothing is happening because no projects have been created yet.

Main Call-to-Action (CTA) Button:

• “Start New Project”

• Use a dark color that contrasts well with the minimalist design to grab attention. The button is centered above the visual, casting a playful shadow over the character’s head.

Secondary Information (Optional):

• At the bottom of the page a small section: “Not sure where to begin?

• A secondary button placed below: “Explore Templates” with an icon communicating it will lead you out of this page.

Tone:

• Playful and motivating: The copy nudges users in a fun way to take action and “wake up” the sleepy workspace by adding new projects.

I hope you like it! Please feel free to share your thoughts.

Thanks!
