The client gave me an idea. I gave it a brand, a design, and a Shopify store.
The client had an idea. I turned it into a product experience.
For this Shopify project, I wasn't given a finished design or a ready-made theme.
I started with the product itself.
01 — Product Design
First, I designed the product concept and created the visual direction around the brand.
02 — Figma Prototype
I then translated the idea into a complete Figma prototype — working through the layout, hierarchy, product presentation, navigation, and overall shopping experience.
03 — Shopify Development
Once the design was ready, I turned the prototype into a custom Shopify theme, bringing the experience to life as a functional ecommerce store.
The goal wasn't to simply make a Shopify website.
It was to make the product feel like a real brand.
From the product packaging and visual identity to the storefront, typography, spacing, navigation and product storytelling — everything was designed to work together.
Idea → Design → Prototype → Development → Live Store.
That's the part of building I enjoy most:
taking something that exists only as an idea and turning it into something people can actually use.

Booking a fitting shouldn’t take more messages than the alteration itself.
Meet Tivora Atelier, a fictional clothing alterations studio in Bucharest. The problem: a solo owner spends too much time asking every customer the same questions and coordinating appointments by hand.
I designed and built a booking experience in @Lovable that takes a customer from “Can I book?” to a confirmed fitting. They share garment details, choose an available time and receive a confirmation email. They can add the fitting to their calendar or use a private link to manage it later.
On the other side, the owner has one view for appointments, garment notes and availability.
This is an exploratory demo, not a real booking service. The video walks through the customer and owner experiences in under a minute.

Great job, Anca
Meet my latest website template, Vauban, tailored for architecture studios.
Built around an editorial grid and Swiss typography, it puts projects at the center while giving the studio itself a clear presence.
Available as a Framer template.
That blue background around the grid is a bold choice. Makes the photography pop.
Since I started remixing templates, I've been offering to build websites for friends and family. 👀 It's a great way to work on real projects for real people, not just practice files.
This one is for a friend who's a family counselor. I used the Holistic template and had the site live in almost a day. There's still much to do to tailor this template to her but I'm happy with the result so far. 🤍
Good call building for real people. The warm photo with that serif headline suits a counselor's site well.
