Hey Contra — new here but figured I’d share what I’ve been building.
I’ve been posting progress on Twitter, but quick look at where Desk Doodles is at.
It’s basically a canvas that takes any drawing, SVG, or image and pushes it through different hand-drawn treatments — rough sketch, bold ink, stipple, charcoal, etc.
The fun part is that every mark-making modifier is controllable. Wobble, multi-stroke, shading, pen tips, texture, all that stuff.
The fun part is its going to become a live canvas people around the world can put thier own object. Think of it like a desk as a public space!
The bigger goal is an intelligent design system that can look at the source and pick the right treatment per region automatically. So it’s not just “slap a filter on it.” It’s more like the system understanding what kind of marks should go where.
Where it’s at right now:
/audit — 197 reference shapes rendering through every style in real time. This is mostly the engine testbed.
/playground — pick items, place them, tweak modifiers live.
SVG upload is working too.
Still need to ship drawing → 3D, complex SVG → 3D, public canvas, and mode switching.
But yeah, that’s where I’m at right now.
Thank you hoping the backend goes smoothly

Every website starts long before the first screen is designed.
For this concept, we began with a moodboard: tea ceremony photography, botanical elements, natural textures, and a calm earthy palette.
Those references shaped the visual direction, typography, colors, and overall atmosphere of the website.
The goal isn't to copy the moodboard, but to transform inspiration into a cohesive digital experience.
Do you think the final design captures the mood of the original references?

good work~
I’m happy to take part in this challenge and share my project created with Google Stitch ❤️🔥
For this challenge, I designed a marketing landing page for a sleep improvement app that helps users build better sleep habits 😴
[𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄]I used Google Stitch throughout the whole design process:
- Imported my design system from Figma
- Added visual references
- Generated the first version of the interface with prompts
- Improved the content and layouts using AI edits
- Added animations and interactions to complete the experience
[𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗨𝘀𝗲𝗱] In this project, I explored several Stitch features:
- Design imports
- AI editing
- Prompt-based UI generation
- Animations and motion
𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 🤩
I really enjoyed working with Stitch. The workflow felt intuitive and easy to understand, making it simple to move from ideas to polished screens. Creating and updating layouts was fast, and the AI-powered editing significantly accelerated the design process. I also appreciated how seamlessly Stitch worked with my existing design assets, allowing me to combine my design system with AI-generated concepts and iterate efficiently

If you enjoyed this project and found the workflow demonstration valuable, I would greatly appreciate your support. Thank you for taking the time to review my submission ❤️
This is a great example of how AI can actually speed up the design process without replacing the designer’s vision.
Really like how you combined your own design system with Stitch’s AI capabilities instead of relying purely on generated outputs. The workflow feels practical, the...
