Hi, I'm Daniel. I run BrightStudios and design brand identity systems and build the websites to match. The throughline isn't industry It's the moment: companies at fundraise, launch, rebrand, or going upmarket. My work spans across SaaS, consumer, hospitality, education, marketplace, and a few that don't fit a category. Started designing at 18. Top 1% on Contra. Framer Partner, Webflow Partner most importantly a Barca fan. A few names you might recognize: DAZN, Contra, Daydream, Hypernative, Marcura, Averi AI, SupaHumans. I put together a reel of recent work, here it is:

Stunning!

🌈✨ 2026 has officially locked in one major trend: dopamine design is no longer just an aesthetic – it’s a whole mood taking over everything.

It’s in interiors (bold accents, unexpected combinations), in fashion (prints, color, play), in branding (expressive visuals over strict rules), and of course – it has made its way into web design.

So what does it actually look like on websites?

It’s all about that “I want to keep clicking” feeling: 

🫟 color that isn’t afraid to stand out  🫟 playful, character-driven graphics  🫟 collages, stickers, illustrations  🫟 a touch of naivety and a lot of emotion 

Less about perfection – more about personality ✨

And even in course design (including Kajabi), this style is starting to show up 🚀

Not everywhere, but it works especially well in certain niches:

• creative fields 🎨 (design, illustration, content creation) • courses for teens and younger audiences 🧃 • lifestyle and self-development products 🌿 • beauty and fashion education 💄 • personal brands with a warm, human tone 🤍 • creative studios and hobby-based learning ✂️

Anywhere where the feeling matters just as much as the information 

What about you – how do you feel about this trend? 

Would you bring more color and dopamine into your website, or do you still prefer minimalism?

creative niches really need this energy
