Noisli — a project by Italian multidisciplinary designer Stefano Merlo — is an ambient high-quality sound and colour generator for working and relaxing. The sounds are designed to help you focus while working, relieve anxiety or just to relax.

You may already be familiar with the web version, but today Noisli release their beautiful new iOS app for both iPad and iPhone. The app features various sounds including, rain, thunderstorm, bonfire, forest, train and seaside — all of which can be toggled and layered with varying emphasis, to produce your ideal sound combination. The app also features a built-in timer function, which can be used during work, creativity sessions or to simply fall asleep.

The Noisli app lets you play all of the sounds offline and therefore you can enjoy its features and benefits while travelling, commuting or any other activity with no need for an internet connection.

Since downloading the iPhone app, I have found the rain and thunderstorm combination a particular favourite when I require focus. An everyday app with a beautiful and minimalist user-interface.
