THE SQUARE is a one-page website I built for a chess club in Bucharest. My goal was a
site that feels alive rather than static, so the hero centers on a 3D chess set that
rotates slowly, the cards respond with a subtle tilt on hover, soft periwinkle gradients
drift behind the content, and key figures count up as you scroll. The design stays light
and editorial ā a serif display face for headings, a clean sans for body, and small
chess-notation details as a nod to the subject. https://stitch.withgoogle.com/preview/11055894979560643717?node-id=e66b3c3f47cc4387bebd9b8a618cbdd1
Wow, Georgiana, this is incredibly elegant! Building a landing page for a chess club is such a fun theme, and you absolutely nailed the editorial vibe.
I love that you didn't settle for a static page, the rotating 3D chess set in the hero section and the subtle tilt on the hover...

PROJECT TITLE
SimpleRent - Student Rental Platform for Sri Lanka
Every year, university students in Sri Lanka leave their hometowns to study in Colombo. They arrive with no local knowledge and no housing plan. No platform was built specifically for them.
SimpleRent is a student-first rental interface that solves two linked problems in one product: find a safe rental near your campus or find a compatible roommate to share the cost.
Google Maps-centered property search, NIC verification flow, roommate board, landlord dashboard, multi-step onboarding, messaging interface, and more - entirely designed and iterated inside Google Stitch.
HOW I USED STITCH
Before generating a single screen, I designed my own logo - a map pin housing a rooftop icon - and imported it into Stitch to generate a design.md brand file. Stitch scanned the logo and produced a complete design system: color palette, typography, card radius, shadow depth, and spacing. Every screen inherited that system automatically from the start.
Each of the 18 screens was then streamed live to the canvas - letting me review and plan refinements on one screen while the next was still being generated.
Once screens were on the canvas, I used Stitch's in-place AI edit feature to refine specific elements without regenerating anything. I clicked directly on a footer, typed a prompt, and only the footer changed. Same for card layouts, button colors, and badge styling - precise, targeted iteration on exactly the element I chose.
For motion, I used Stitch's native HTML canvas to build the NIC verification animation: the ID card shakes first as a visual cue, then flips smoothly on double-click. Property cards lift and shadow on hover. Because Stitch renders native HTML by default, every animation played in real time directly on the canvas as I built it.
For the code pipeline, I used Stitch's MCP connection to import Antigravity. Antigravity handled the code-side refinements - the logic and structure that go beyond what a visual canvas touches. Stitch for design. Antigravity for code. A full design-to-code pipeline, linked through MCP.
FEEDBACK ON STITCH
The real-time streaming canvas changed how I design. You stop waiting for a result and start collaborating with it - refining the previous screen while the next one is still being generated. That shift alone made the process feel genuinely different from any other tool I have used.
The in-place edit feature removed the biggest frustration of AI design tools: the fear of regenerating something good just to fix something small. Clicking directly on an element and prompting only that element to change is the kind of control that makes iteration feel safe.
The MCP integration with Antigravity was the unexpected part. It bridges the gap between a design prototype and a real codebase in a way I did not expect from a design tool.
Stitch did not just speed up how I work. It improved the ideas I had while I was working.

This is the gold standard right here! Absolutely spectacular.

Today I created a landing page for a productivity tool called Awake ai with just Google stitch and some inspiration from pinterest and behance.
It was a great experience seeing this come together.
Nice work. Stitch + inspiration boards seems to be a pretty good combo for exploring ideas quickly. Curious how much you changed from the initial Stitch output.
I experimented with a different direction here:

Project Title: Neighborhood Rental Finder.
I designed the Neighborhood Rental Finder to solve the common stress of relocating to a new city without local guidance. My goal was to build an interface that feels "alive" by creating a seamless, interactive bridge between property owners and prospective tenants.
User Dashboard: A centralized hub where users can manage their bookings, saved listings, and active searches in real time, keeping the user journey organized and responsive.
Taking mental notes because this is how itās done.
