Some concept work from the agency. Planning to share more of what we create, from clean interfaces to the little motion details that bring them to life.

An exploration of experimental graphic design, sculptural form, and architectural minimalism.
PAPER MONOLITH transforms the delicate nature of paper into a monumental visual statement. Inspired by origami geometry and contemporary architecture, this concept combines intricate folded structures, sophisticated typography, and refined editorial composition.
Created for 1286 CRAFT, the project explores the contrast between softness and strength through ivory-toned sculptural forms, realistic CGI aesthetics, precise geometric detailing, and a minimalist Swiss-inspired design approach.
The accompanying cinematic motion design brings the composition to life through subtle unfolding movements, atmospheric lighting, and elegant visual storytelling.
Creative Direction: Experimental Graphic Design, 3D Art Direction, Editorial Typography, Conceptual Design, Architectural Visualization, AI-Assisted Visual Design, and Cinematic Motion Design.
Weekend fun 😺. The new MacBook Pro has a Dynamic Island, and I kept wondering: what if that little pill was where your AI agent lived?
Try it live: https://lab.behzad.me/agent-mew/
So I spent the weekend prototyping Agent Mew. You drop a file on the notch, give it a task, and it quietly works up there while you keep doing your thing. It shows progress in the wings, asks a quick question when it needs one, and always waits for your OK before doing anything that leaves your Mac, like sending an email.
A few things I explored:
- Progress that stays out of the way, readable at a glance
- Questions as one tap, not a chat window
- Approval cards for anything with real consequences
- Paused and stuck states that tell you what to do next
- A small animated cat, because agents should have some personality
Approval cards for anything that leaves the Mac is the right line to draw. Does the card show the full email before you tap OK, or a short summary? I'd lean toward full text for anything going to another person.
