What would happen if a modern skincare product had to communicate without the visual language we associate with beauty today?
Instead, I went back to Art Nouveau, where typography, illustration, architecture, and ornament were treated as one visual system.
The subject actually felt surprisingly natural for the era. Art Nouveau was heavily inspired by nature, craftsmanship, beauty, and organic forms, all ideas that still show up constantly in skincare branding today.
One rule I refused to break: the decoration had to belong to the composition. It couldn't just be added on top to make something “look vintage.”
So... what modern product would you love to see reimagined in another design era? 👀
🍓 Two packaging directions for Turn's Strawberry Matcha Premium Live Resin Pod same product, same "Fruit-Forward Botanical Blend" headline, same 1g pod. Two completely different shelf strategies.

I created a 30-sec AI-powered UGC ad for MELTY, a fictional ice cream brand.
This one was a bit of a challenge because getting AI-generated UGC to feel natural, from the creator’s expressions and eating motion to the product and ice cream texture takes a lot of prompting and refining.
I worked on everything from the concept and product visuals to the creator, scenes, and final video, with the goal of making it feel like a real UGC ad rather than something obviously AI-generated.
Still learning and pushing what AI can do with product advertising.
