Living Canvas — AI that co-creates visually with you
A canvas where AI doesn’t generate outputs, but co-creates in real time, reacting to:
Your cursor movement
Your rhythm
Your hesitation
Living Canvas explores a new interaction paradigm where AI becomes a real-time creative partner instead of a command-based tool. By responding to motion, rhythm, and pauses, the interface transforms creativity into a continuous human–AI feedback loop — making creation feel embodied, intuitive, and alive.

Hi Contra friends,
I’ve noticed something funny about my creative process.
Some of my best ideas don’t come when I’m sitting there trying to solve a design problem. They usually show up when I’m playing with something completely unrelated.
A weird interaction.
A random experiment.
An idea that probably doesn’t make sense yet.
So I started building a little playground website where I can test these ideas:

Lately I’ve been doing a lot of vibe coding. It’s been a fun way to turn half-baked ideas into small interactive things and see where they go.
Ironically, a lot of those playful experiments end up helping me solve real design problems later in my work.
If you're curious, wander around and have fun!
Creative playgrounds are where the best ideas start!
Here’s how to check your design color contrast for accessibility in Figma.
If you’re building and shipping products today, especially with AI tools, accessibility is something you shouldn’t overlook.
Color contrast accessibility simply means making sure the difference between your text color and background is strong enough for users to read.
For example:
• Light gray text on white ❌ hard to read
• Dark text on white ✅ accessible
If you’re shipping products, make sure everyone can actually use what you build.
Great reminder. Accessibility often gets overlooked, but proper color contrast can make a huge difference in usability.
Animation basics are powerful, with a pencil or Framer you can make anything move.

Nice interaction work. Small animation details like this really make interfaces feel more alive and polished.
