Friends, I havenโt announced this properly yet, but I canโt keep quiet anymore

And sharing a bit of our experience in this post.

โ๏ธ We posted 2โ4 works per week. So behind this result are 5 years of consistency.
โ๏ธ Thanks to regular posting, we grew to around 100,000 followers across all our accounts.

So far, Dribbble hasnโt brought us a single client.
We do get inquiries from there, but so far, none of them have been from clients with the budgets we usually work with.
Letโs see what happens next.
Also, Iโll be happy to answer your questions about growing on Dribbble, if you have any.
By the way, this case shows me that the phrase โwhere there is focus, there is resultโ is not entirely true. Because Dribbble wasnโt our daily focus throughout these 5 years.
Iโll unpack this in the next post.
Congratulations. I also haven't gotten any clients from Dribbble yet but my reach is nowhere near yours. It's real surprising.

Just shipped a new one. Marketing site for Elfa Studio, built in Figma + Relume + Webflow.
The goal was simple: make it minimal, make it convert, don't overthink it. Every section had to earn its spot on the page.
Went from wireframes to live site in about a month. Collaborated with Svitlana Subbota, who brought sharp UX/UI thinking to the project.
Site's not live yet (waiting on final content from the client, the classic hold-up), but the case study has the full walkthrough.
This is what I do: design it, build it, ship it. No handoff limbo. If you need a site that looks good and actually works, let's chat.
Full case study here:
Hi! Nice work. Which program you use to make this animation of all screens of work? Thx.
I gave myself a brief no client would ever send.
Design a website for a private orbital travel company departing 2027. Make it feel like booking a Rolls-Royce, not a rocket. So I built Aphelion. spaceplane concept renders. orbital cabin interiors. luxury seating. full design system. WebGL animations in Unicorn Studio. the whole thing from scratch. 408 km above Earth. 90 minutes per orbit. 16 sunrises a day. this is what i think luxury space travel ux looks like
Impressive.
Create Informational designs to help users understand what they want to purchase, then add it to your menu or socials

this is so simple & sleek while also being incredibly informative, kudos! as a consumer, i know that this sort of breakdown of menu items would reduce so many questions that tend to crop up re: what's actually inside.
