I don’t know exactly when, but I’ll eventually release the website built around the 3D cube — and it will be the last cinematic website I create specifically for sale.
After that, I’ll gradually transition this profile toward a more restrained, business-focused direction. The same shift will happen across my components and ready-made products.
My existing cinematic projects are staying, and I’m not abandoning experimental work completely — it will still be available for custom projects. But the new work appearing here will slowly start to look different.
If you originally followed me for cinematic websites and unusual interactions, thank you for being here for that chapter.
This isn’t exactly goodbye. It’s just a rebrand happening in real time.
Apparently, I’m growing up.

Most companies need a great website fast.
The problem is, "fast" usually means cutting corners.
I don't.
Here's how I build and launch a website in one week without sacrificing quality.
I only take on one project at a time. If it's your week, you have my full attention. That focus keeps everything moving.
Before I start building, I gather every asset, piece of copy, and reference I'll need. We align on the direction early with moodboards and inspiration, so there are no surprises halfway through.
I also build directly in Framer from day one. Clients actually really love seeing their live website immediately. They can click through it, experience it, and leave feedback on something that already feels real. It also removes the extra design to development handoff that often adds days or even weeks.
After launch, I stick around for another week to make sure everything runs smoothly and fix any small issues.
A clear process creates room for better design.
And that's where I spend my time. Crafting the details, polishing interactions, and making the website feel like a product, not just a collection of pages.
Having a clear process for sure makes room for better design. What you wrote really resonates with me Natália.

Playing around with a scroll-driven 3D animation in Framer.
The "3D" is actually just a video. The animation was made in Blender (not by me), then I exported it as a video and used a component that syncs the video playback with the scroll position.
Pretty cool way to get a 3D-like effect without embedding a real 3D scene.
The quality might look a bit off in places, but I think that's because the animation itself is pretty fast. I'll probably slow it down and see if that improves it.
I used the same setup for a 73-second Seedance film, with scroll controlling video playback. The tricky part was hiding the seams between generated clips so the scrub still felt continuous.
