Taste Test
A study in contrast.
Both pieces use similar layout logic and framing, but push the emotional tone in opposite directions to show how flexible a visual system can be.

Have to side with Gotham
Option 2 is incredibly striking. Its a great example of how a flexible system can handle high-intensity visuals without losing structure.

We built Undo for files. We never built it for feelings.
Emotional Undo is a hold-to-reconsider gesture that catches you right before you send, post, or delete and shows you your emotional temperature in that moment.
Not a blocker. Just a breath.
The seat belt of digital communication.

What if an interface could feel what you feel?
BREATHE is an emotional interaction experience built with Figma Make. You open it and watch a single circle breathe in the dark. Then you choose your emotional state — CALM, ANXIOUS, TIRED, or ALIVE.
The entire interface transforms around your choice. Color, motion, atmosphere, typography — everything shifts to mirror how you feel. Each state is a completely different world.
It's not an app. It's not a tool. It's a mirror.
The interface felt it too.
Try it here:

This is exactly what I need right now, after a long workday. Cool!
Collective Pulse reimagines the "Reaction" buttons with a new interaction primitive: a continuous, anonymous 2D gesture where you locate yourself in emotional space. One placement creates a living, real-time map of how humanity feels — no content, no identity, just presence.
Features:
- New emotional gesture: self-location on a sea of emotions
- Anonymous by design: no accounts, no identity, no attribution
- 24-hour mood decay: every pulse fades like weather, not a permanent record
- Draggable live update: your pulse becomes a handle; mood is a position, not a selection
- Nearest-first community reveal: connection framed as proximity, not comparison
- Dark ambient canvas : emotional color glows with high-fidelity contrast
