My last-minute submission.
This is my entry for the Config Makeathon.
I built a 3D brick simulator where you can create and play with LEGO-style bricks using only your hand gestures.
Instead of clicking through menus, you can point, pinch, rotate, and move your hands to build in 3D space. You can choose different brick types, change colors, rotate pieces, and experiment freely.
The goal was to make building feel more natural, playful, and interactive by bringing the physical experience of playing with bricks into a digital world.

This is dope!
Thank you!
Wow! That is actually insane, did it took you so long to make?
Thank you! It did not took that long, I just been busy with work stuff.
Hand gesture input for a brick builder is the right idea for this kind of spatial interaction. The pinch-to-place mechanic maps well to how people actually think about building with physical pieces.
Thank you. You're spot on about spatial interaction because that's is the idea, because I think we're moving towards spatial interface and experience so I created something that reduce the use of mouse/keyboard.

Wonder -- Visual Expressions
The restraint in the warm palette really lets the sound-object concept breathe—especially that shift from readable type to atmosphere.
A look at the identity we designed for Vetti, a dog health monitoring brand.
There’s a lot of data behind a product like this but the person using it just wants to know their dog is okay.
That’s the balance in the design with a connected dot system that feels precise and warm colors and photography that keep it close to what people care about.
Also, an excellent excuse to spend far too long choosing dog photos.
