Most brands become inconsistent the moment they start growing. At the beginning, everything is controlled.  Small team, clear direction, fewer touchpoints. Then growth happens.  More platforms, more campaigns, more people involved. Without a strong system, the brand slowly fragments. Consistency is not maintained through talent alone.  It’s maintained through structure.

With growth, brands should focus on evolving to the environments.

Same skincare brand. Two very different first impressions.

For my latest NeuroDNA project, LUMIÈRE, I explored two creative directions:

01 — the face and the skincare ritual. 02 — the bottle as the main focus.

Warm ivory, deep green and consistent packaging connect both designs. The imagery is AI-assisted, with layout and typography composed separately.

LUMIÈRE is a self-initiated concept for a fictional brand.

For a skincare brand you’ve never heard of, which would make you pause — 01 or 02, and why?

I Built Untangled, an onboarding desk for small design and development studios.

The problem is not writing a follow up. It is noticing that someone stopped replying, before the client does. Studios run this on a mix of notes, a spreadsheet and memory, and the thing that slips is usually the quiet one.

Untangled turns a new client or hire into a branded kickoff kit with dated follow ups. You set a wait window per engagement, three days for a client and two for a hire by default. Every person then carries their own clock from the day their message was sent. Anyone past their window with no reply is promoted to overdue, with the arithmetic written down: sent date, window length, days past.

The desk is built around that subtraction. A board of who needs a decision today. An engagement page with the scope, the people, the window controls and an evidence log where every promotion records why it happened. A kickoff kit a client can open from a link without an account.

Built on Base44 with its database, auth and hosting. Everything labelled sample data really is sample data. A signed in studio sees only its own records.
