In a product with thousands of envelopes, search is how people find anything. So I made it useful before you type: your recent searches, quick links and what’s waiting for you, right when it opens. Type three letters and the suggestions do the rest.
Making search useful before anyone types is underrated, and "what's waiting for you" is the smart part. One thing I think about in document-heavy products like invoicing: people rarely remember a document's number or title. They remember who it was for, roughly how much, or...
Thoughtful search layout.

Landing page design for Lumo — banking for freelance life
Banks sell control — dashboards, charts, a card floating at fifteen degrees. Freelancers don't want control over their money. They want to stop thinking about it in the gap between sending an invoice and the money landing.
That gap is what the page is built on. The product sits in a meadow instead of on a dark grid, because the promise isn't "manage your finances better" — it's "we handle the part that keeps you up." And the strongest line on the page isn't a feature: no waiting for Monday. Freelancers don't lose weekends to fees. They lose them to timing.
The proof follows the same rule. One freelancer, one number — 4% lost on every international payment. A percentage someone can check against their own account beats any adjective.
great visuals 🙌
I’ve been playing with Figma Motion lately, and honestly, it’s so much fun to watch an idea go from a static frame to something that actually moves and feels alive.
So I started with something personal: my favorite track on repeat, “My Way” by Calvin Harris. I designed a soft glass music player around it, with a frosted body, a vinyl peeking out from the top, and a warm sunset glow behind it, then brought it to life with motion.
Small experiments like this are my favorite way to learn new tools: one idea, one evening, and you see what’s possible.
Now I’m curious: who’s on repeat for you right now?
Love the UI concept
