What if recipe apps felt less like tools and more like companions?

Introducing Sous — a motion-first cooking experience with hands-free mode, contextual meal planning, living interfaces, and immersive food interactions.

Most recipe apps assume users are fully focused on their screens while cooking. In reality, cooking is messy, fast, and hands-busy. So I designed Sous.

Features include: • Hands-free cooking mode for uninterrupted workflows • Adaptive meal planning based on available ingredients • Motion-rich interactions and immersive recipe exploration • Smart collections and contextual recipe discovery • A visual system inspired by premium culinary experiences

How Google Stitch helped: Google Stitch became part of the workflow instead of just another design tool. I used it to rapidly move from rough concepts to interactive interfaces, iterate directly on screens using AI edits, experiment with layouts faster, and refine motion-heavy experiences without rebuilding everything repeatedly.

Stitch made it easier to: → Explore multiple interface directions quickly → Iterate components in-place with AI feedback loops → Build interaction-heavy screens faster → Focus more on UX decisions instead of repetitive UI work → Prototype a more “alive” interface through motion and interaction experimentation

The goal wasn’t just to design another recipe app — it was to create an interface that feels present while you cook. ✨ Try the prototype → Prototype

Would love feedback on the interactions, motion system, and cooking workflow.
