Today I'm celebrating!
We're half way through the year and I already made the same monies as I did for the whole of 2025.
✴︎ I'm absolutely not a millionaire.
✴︎ Not even a 6–figure earner.
And of course, anything could happen in the second half of the year...
But I love what I do and I'm proud of myself, and at this stage, that's what makes me feel rich.
If you're building your own thing, be patient! Keep putting in the work and you'll see, you can make yourself proud :)
Fantastic!
Congrats.
Make sense
Great
Amazing!

All alone, heart made of glass
😊 🙌
That's so cool!
Niceee 🔥
Hitting a whole year's income at the halfway mark while staying proud of the work, not just the number, is the real win. What shifted for you this year - more repeat clients, higher rates, or just more volume?
Great question Maty! I redesigned my brand identity packages, reducing the delivery time, streamlining them and also offering 2 instead of 3. I also worked hard on making my proposals focus on benefits and not so much on listing individual deliverables :)
Congrats 🥳
I celebrate with you
Ow that's lovely Esther, thank you!

I redesigned the website for this project, keeping its core elements while making it more modern and techy with dark mode by default, eye-catching floating animations, and improved color contrast.
Do you think the redesign I made in Figma is better? Or is the original version better?

Both of them looks nice but I can clearly see a big mistake on the footer the orig light page footer should be white or blue in color. @Grecia Valero that's why everyone's voted on the dark mode
MIDDAY | Campaign & Art Direction
MIDDAY was positioned as a habit brand rather than a special-occasion destination.
The campaign language is direct, playful and grounded in the reality of a busy day. Good food, made properly, without turning lunch into a whole performance.
Not the place you save for someday. The place you return to every Tuesday.
Soon a deeper take and look in this personal project.
MIDDAY may not be a real sandwich bar yet, but the concept is ready to leave the mockups whenever someone wants to open the doors.
Lunch. Handled.
Amazing work
For the Envato Design Challenge, I created Sol & Snow, a completely visual identity for a fictional brand that doesn't exist yet; nestled in the Canadian mountains. A premium cold plunge and sauna wellness experience, inspired by the contrast between warmth and cold. My project includes a complete brand system, art direction, environmental storytelling, social campaigns, packaging, and moody touch points. Really focus on feeling for this one.
Enjoyed not having a workflow challenge but being tasked to make something functional.
I used Envato to generate the brand identity and Figma to glue it all together. Let me know what you think!
Great project! It's motivating to see the creativity in this community. Thanks for sharing your process and bringing your idea to life.
