Obsessed with NASA's interactive Landsat website. I could click this button all day to see all the different ways the letterforms in my name occur naturally around the world ♥️🌎

Reminds me of the Amazonia branding that launched a few weeks ago!

Here's the link if you want to try your own!

This is too good not to share.

Type your name and see it spelled using real satellite images from Earth. Yes, actual NASA Landsat imagery. It’s oddly satisfying.

I just tried mine and now I want to see everyone else’s.

NASA 🚀🪐 built a tool that spells your name using Landsat satellite images of Earth. Rivers, dunes, lava, glaciers, all shaped like letters when seen from above. This reminded me of FutureBrand São Paulo, which created the amazing logo shaped from the real curves of the Amazon River ✨ The planet has been literally writing our lives for billions of years 🌎❤️ Try Nasa's tool here :) https://science.nasa.gov/specials/your-name-in-landsat/ FutureBrand's case study: https://www.futurebrand.com/our-work/amazonia

I built Explore My Universe as an interactive experience rather than a traditional personal website. The goal was to transform a portfolio into something users can explore, where each section feels like a part of a larger system.

Visitors can switch perspectives, interact with projects as orbiting elements, and discover hidden layers including a mini-game and a secret page. These features were designed to reward curiosity and make the experience feel alive.

Instead of focusing only on information, I focused on how the site feels — combining motion, interactivity, and storytelling to create something memorable and personal.
