Ever start a small graphics experiment and suddenly find yourself writing rudder physics, buoyancy formulas, and a dual-oscillator boat horn at 2 AM?

Went with A. The house and car photo does more to sell the lifestyle promise in "Your Goals, Our Expertise" than the city skyline does, feels warmer for a first touchpoint like login.
🏔️ Someone you love is dying. There's a cure on a mountain hundreds of miles away. You don't know which herb it is. So you carry the entire mountain back.
That's not a metaphor. That's the Ramayana.
🙏 SANJEEVANI: THE NIGHT DEVOTION MOVED MOUNTAINS — my submission for the FLORA Museum Challenge.
I started with "Hanuman Bearing the Mountaintop with Medicinal Herbs" (ca. 1800, Rajasthan) — a massive devotional painting from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Open Access archive. It captures Hanuman's most famous act: flying across India carrying Mount Dronagiri to save the dying Lakshmana.
The Met's painting freezes this story in one frame. I unfolded it into five.
🩸 THE WOUND — On the battlefield of Lanka, Lakshmana falls. Rama kneels beside his brother. The physician says only the Sanjeevani herb from the Himalayas can save him — and it must arrive before sunrise.
🚀 THE LEAP — Hanuman steps forward. He grows to colossal size and launches into the night sky with a force that parts the ocean. The earth cracks beneath him.
🌿 THE MOUNTAIN — He lands on Dronagiri. Thousands of herbs glow with bioluminescent light in the moonlit darkness — teals, blues, golds, greens. He cannot identify the Sanjeevani among them. Time is running out. Dawn creeps onto the horizon. And then — the decision that echoed through millennia.
☄️ THE FLIGHT BACK — Hanuman carries the entire mountain on his palm, flying across the Indian night sky. Luminous herbs fall from the peak and trail behind him like a bioluminescent comet tail — a river of healing light streaming through the stars. The Ramayana says herbs fell along his flight path, and where they landed, medicinal plants still grow today.
🌅 THE HEALING — Dawn breaks. The mountain sits glowing on the battlefield. Lakshmana breathes again. Rama embraces his brother. And Hanuman stands apart, head bowed, hands folded in prayer. He does not celebrate. His work was service, not spectacle.
Each panel was built on FLORA and animated into a cinematic sequence — from the darkest night to the most golden dawn.
The Rajasthani painters captured this story in one frame 200 years ago. I needed five — because some acts of devotion deserve to be witnessed in motion.
"Where in all the three worlds will I find another brother like Lakshmana?" — Lord Rama

stunning.
Great design doesn't just look good, it converts.
I've recently been working on two luxury fashion concepts that balance brand storytelling with conversion-focused UX.
One is a heritage-inspired knitwear brand. I focused on creating a clean, editorial layout that lets the product photography breathe because when you're selling premium knitwear, the texture and quality need to be the hero.
The other is a seamless activewear brand launching a new leggings collection. The challenge here was different: high-intent shoppers want to see product details fast. I designed a "Shop Now" flow that reduces friction, highlights the "Seamless Collection" as a key differentiator, and surfaces bestsellers immediately.
What I learned:
- Luxury fashion needs editorial breathing room.
- Activewear needs speed and clarity (users want to find their size and buy)
- Both need mobile-first layouts because 70%+ traffic comes from mobile
I didn't just design these, I built them with clean Liquid, optimized for Core Web Vitals, and integrated with Klaviyo for email capture. From Figma to launch, I handled it all.
One thing I want to understand deeply from each of my clients is what's the most important element of a fashion e-commerce site for them?
