Calm Technology: What is it and how does it benefit you?

Today we are going to talk about a concept that is very important to us and our way of facing life, Calm Technology .

Calm Technology is basically a way of designing devices so they don't stress you out or drive you crazy with constant notifications and distractions.

It's like the quiet friend who's never going to be a bore, but is always there when you need them. The idea is that technology isn't the main focus, but rather that it integrates seamlessly into your daily life, without you having to be constantly attentive to it. It's like that boyfriend/girlfriend who doesn't text you every two minutes to check on you—the kind of person who knows how to love without being overwhelming, you understand, right?

For example, imagine a smartwatch that gives you useful information without bothering you every five minutes with crappy notifications. It's increasingly important to design calming tech products because technology is so prevalent in our daily lives and we're overusing it. We all depend on it, but if you spend all day with your eyes glued to a screen, you're not doing the most important thing: living your life.

Integrate calm technology into your life

In short, calm tech is a response to the increasing use of technology in daily life. It seeks to integrate seamlessly into people's lives without constantly distracting or interrupting. Calm devices are simple, elegant, and discreet, reducing the negative impact of technology on human attention and well-being. By designing technology in this way, at Lekus we seek to create more balanced and harmonious technological experiences with our daily lives.
