Wanted to try something different and a bit more fun for a personal portfolio. Not a site to sell anything, just one that tells my story.
So I stepped out of my comfort zone and built a 3D version of me. It loads in as a hologram, the head and eyes follow your cursor, and each sticker on my face, neck and sweater opens a short story about something that matters to me.
It's well outside what I usually build, so I'd love your honest take. How does it look, and what would you change or add to make it better?
Built with Next.js, React Three Fiber and Blender.
the stickers opening stories is the hook, id make the cursor follow a touch lazier though
I appreciate the feedback, I will test it out for sure.

The best part of this website might be the page nobody is supposed to see.
About 4 months ago, we launched the new website for STORY Design Amsterdam.
STORY is all about giving homes personality, so we wanted the website to have some too.
Including their 404 page.
Naturally, I put the owner's dog on it.
If you end up on the wrong page, you might as well enjoy it.
But the fun details only work if the website itself does too.
Before the launch, most of their website traffic came through Instagram.
Today, around 60% comes from Google.
And now we've taken the next step by adding a little shop, so people can buy their kitchen handles directly from the site.
Next up: a great about us page; photoshoots are already planned.
I don't design websites that often.
But when I do, I don't want to create something that could belong to any business.
It should feel like their business. Do you think I achieved that?
Great work, Bram
The soft highlight on the Messages bubble makes it feel like real glass. Which tool did you render these in?
