What if sending money felt a little more like giving a gift?
For Nova, I explored a banking app that brings payments, cards, and a bit of personality together. You can check your balance, browse recent transactions, send or request money, top up, and pay bills.
My favorite part is the digital postcard feature. Before sending a transfer, you can add a little illustrated card—a heart, a birthday greeting, or a playful character. A simple way to make birthday money or a thank-you feel more personal.
I carried that same 3D character into onboarding, pairing it with bold red gradients and large, clear payment details. There’s room for play, while the recipient and amount stay easy to check.
Would you add a postcard to a transfer? I’d love to know what occasion you’d use it for.
Love this hero.
Lumen: TV Video Player UI
A video player interface designed for the living-room TV, where the only input is a remote.
Most player UIs are designed for a mouse or a finger. On a TV, people navigate with a D-pad from across the room, so I rebuilt the player around that.
What I focused on:
→ Focus states over hover. The selected control scales up, fills with amber and glows, so it's always clear what the remote is pointing at.
→ Input source switching. HDMI 1–3, USB and Cast sit in one panel, each with a live status (Console, Streaming box, No signal) so people don't have to guess which source is active.
→ Chaptered progress bar with a thumbnail preview, making seeking easier with step-based remote input.
→ 10-foot readability. Large buttons (104px), large type, and safe margins so nothing gets cut off by TV overscan.
→ One accent colour. A dusk-toned background with a single amber highlight keeps the controls clear without competing with the video.
Does the focus wrap around?
