Day 12/30 of my hero section challenge.

Another day of prioritising the visuals and imagining a company that doesn't exist. I promise the next one is a tech brief with barely any imagery at all, I've leaned hard on beautiful photography for twelve days straight.

Concept: a mycelium materials company producing leather, packaging and foam grown from fungal networks. The design deliberately inverts the category's defaults; biotech branding tends toward dark, clinical and electric blue, so this one goes warm and botanical, with a subtle looping video of spores drifting and mushrooms emerging. The copy pulls hard the other way: plain, technical, B2B-direct, anchored by two concrete numbers instead of sustainability adjectives.

Twelve briefs across travel, food retail, personal branding, events, landscape architecture, pet services, hospitality, coffee, lighting, wellness, restaurants and now biomaterials.

12 down, 18 to go.

Imagery and video generated with AI.

brilliant

Of course, AI now can do more than basic understanding of rough sketches or shapes, it is far beyond what the public frontier AI models we are able to access can even do, we are far too limited from the use if its full power, no complaints from me though, we should strive to support AI safety-measures to avoid catastrophe.

What do you guys use AI for?

the rough sketches test is cool. did the simple ones come out ok?
