What happens when an AI recruiting platform refuses to look like every other HR tech product?
HR tech and recruitment websites often fall into the same visual pattern: corporate blue, predictable layouts, and interfaces that feel interchangeable.
For Talvora, an AI-powered talent acquisition platform, the goal was to create something with a much stronger visual identity.
We took a modern editorial approach, combining:
— High-contrast typography
— A bold magazine-inspired layout
— Warm, fluid 3D visual elements
— Strong visual hierarchy
— A clean B2B user experience
The result is a landing page designed to make an AI product feel distinctive, modern, and credible without sacrificing clarity.
This is the kind of website development I enjoy most: taking a complex product and turning it into a simple, compelling digital experience.
Building a SaaS, AI product, or startup website? Let's create something that doesn't look like everyone else's.
Designed the website for Dovora — an agency that builds businesses for creators, not brand deals. "We don't represent brands, we don't split focus" is basically the whole pitch, and I wanted the site to feel just as uncompromising.
So no polished stock creator-economy visuals. The hero is a wall of real streamer/podcast footage arranged in overlapping diamonds and rounded frames — actual creators, mid-stream, mid-laugh — with a glowing gradient orb behind bold "WE BUILD CREATOR BUSINESSES" type. It reads more like a highlight reel than a landing page, which felt right for an audience that lives on camera.
The second section flips the energy completely — dark, minimal, almost aggressive typography ("BUILT EXCLUSIVELY FOR CREATORS. FULL STOP.") paired with huge chrome-and-neon 3D letterforms spelling out CREATORS. It's loud in a completely different way than the hero, and that contrast is intentional — this isn't a buttoned-up agency deck, it's built for people who make content for a living.
Another day of prioritising the visuals and imagining a company that doesn't exist. I promise the next one is a tech brief with barely any imagery at all, I've leaned hard on beautiful photography for twelve days straight.
Concept: a mycelium materials company producing leather, packaging and foam grown from fungal networks. The design deliberately inverts the category's defaults; biotech branding tends toward dark, clinical and electric blue, so this one goes warm and botanical, with a subtle looping video of spores drifting and mushrooms emerging. The copy pulls hard the other way: plain, technical, B2B-direct, anchored by two concrete numbers instead of sustainability adjectives.
Twelve briefs across travel, food retail, personal branding, events, landscape architecture, pet services, hospitality, coffee, lighting, wellness, restaurants and now biomaterials.
