Your UI doesn’t have to feel static.
I built this 2D moon-and-planet animation as a small example of how motion can make a digital experience feel more alive.
The same idea can be adapted into hero sections, loading states, onboarding screens, product interfaces, feature sections, or interactive UI elements for your website or app.
The goal isn’t to add motion just because we can. It should have a purpose, fit your brand, and make the experience feel better.

Good UI animation is not about making every element move.
It is about showing the viewer where to look first.
One clear action, one visual priority and enough time to understand what happened.
When everything moves at once, the interface becomes harder to follow.
The best motion usually feels almost invisible — it simply makes the product easier to understand.
Amazing work!

The walks have so much personality.
Here’s a little piece from my current project. As I watch the Swiss design concept become a part of my creative DNA, I find myself constantly gravitating towards this direction in web design.
What’s really interesting is that Volume 3 studio and I are experimenting here, mixing things that seem completely unmixable at first glance.
Since Volume 3 is a CGI and VFX studio, it was crucial to incorporate a 3D dimension into their brand communication. On top of that, a Terminal UI is exactly what keeps that technical vibe going.
So, the final mix is International (Swiss) style, a Terminal UI, and a 3D feel brought to life by neumorphism. Crazy, right???
It looks simple and clean, but behind the scenes, there’s a massive amount of work on the details. We focused on all those little things that push the UX/UI into the premium segment — the things you don't necessarily see right away, but you definitely feel when you're on the page.
The work is still ongoing, so I can't dive into reflecting on the whole process just yet, but I'm gonna keep revealing small parts here.
Swiss grids on the web never get old when they're this clean. What are you and Volume 3 mixing it with?
