Good design is 20% visuals. 80% strategy. Here's a campaign I designed for a dermatology clinic — Skinfinity Derma.

3 posts. 3 different target audiences: Men who want to look groomed Young girls with pigmentation concerns Mothers who make healthcare decisions for their families

Same clinic. Same services. Three completely different emotional triggers. That's what audience segmentation looks like in real creative work. As a designer, my job isn't just to make things look good. It's to make the right person feel seen.

Sometimes a website doesn’t need a full rebuild – just a clearer, more modern experience. We recently redesigned this homepage and simplified the layout, messaging, and structure. Curious which version you’d trust more at first glance: old or new?

Recently I started exploring more Gothic-inspired web aesthetics and darker visual directions.

Most of my work is usually connected to modern business websites or product-focused interfaces, so working with a completely different mood felt refreshing. The whole process forces you to think differently as a designer. You stop relying on the same visual habits and begin focusing much more on atmosphere, typography, scale, visual pressure, and the feeling the layout creates while scrolling.

I think this is one of the reasons why it’s important to occasionally step outside of the usual “safe” styles. When you work only with standard startup aesthetics for too long, your visual thinking can become predictable without you even noticing it.

Even though projects like this are rare in actual client work, I still enjoy exploring them from time to time. They help me experiment more freely and sharpen my understanding of visual storytelling and art direction.

Curious what you think about this direction.
