KUMO is a toy brand I created from scratch. 🧸 I designed the toy characters, developed the branding, created custom mockups, and designed a website to bring the brand to life. Using Envato throughout the process helped me turn a simple idea into a cohesive visual world. ✨

Aise is a conceptual skincare brand built around a simple premise: wellness should simplify your life, not add to it. Inspired by growing consumer overwhelm and decision fatigue, I developed a reduction-led brand strategy and visual identity that transforms minimalism into a functional system rather than a stylistic trend. Through restrained typography, intentional spacing, refined packaging, and clear product architecture, the brand is designed to reduce cognitive load and make skincare feel calm, intuitive, and effortless.
Love how restrained the packaging feels, that wordmark on the outer box doing double duty as texture is a nice touch. Did you test other color combos before landing on the pink and sage, or was that pairing there from the start?
This submission was made with a little bit of pure, mindless vandalism against AI.
I wanted a killer website for my brand, Discern Like a Rebel. So I fed Claude with Envato assets (fonts, textures, illustrations, sound, templates, generations...) and asked it to build. It did. But it was all clean grids and neat boxes.
So, to make it more me, I let the drawings spill over the nav bar and loosened the grid up. Even than, the generator kept sliding back to safe, when it refused to animate a nude Greek statue (only once though). But rebels fight haha.
The big step was to bring it to life with looping animations, paper tears, and hand-drawn lines (all using Envato's library).
A pro designer would have moved the drawing in seconds. I spent my time changing AI's mind instead, since I am not one yet. Funny enough, that friction became the creative process. AI can follow a rule beautifully. It can't feel when breaking one makes something come alive.
I must say, very on par with my brand's philosophy.
P.S. This is a re-upload because the sound quality on the first attempt was awful. Enjoy much better audio this time around!
The idea of using AI while keeping a deliberately rebellious, imperfect brand voice is a fun tension. Which Envato asset pushed the Discern Like a Rebel site in the most unexpected direction?
