Designing a table lamp inspired by Vietnamese “áo dài” and “nón lá” with @Envato at the centre of my workflow.
Starting from a black-and-white sketch, I built the lamp's ceramic base and rice-paper shade using Envato's AI toolkit, tagging reference materials directly so AI wasn't guessing at textures it can't always read from an image alone.
AI was great at generating options. It was not great at knowing which option was right; I rejected a full batch that technically worked but lost the silhouette I actually wanted, and hand-retouched a detail (the finial) that AI kept leaving unfinished.
The bigger call AI couldn't make: timing this launch to back-to-school season in Vietnam, when áo dài comes back out. That's not a style choice; it's a commercial one.
See the full process and the part AI couldn't do in the VIDEO below. 👇

Great Submission!
My entry for the Envato & Contra Challenge! ✨
For this project, I imagined a visual identity for a national park dedicated to protecting the snow leopard or irbis, the traditional name for this rare mountain cat. It’s a species deeply connected to Central Asian culture and the place where I grew up.
I used Envato as an all-in-one creative toolkit to explore and bring the concept to life, including ImageGen, GraphicsGen, VideoGen, MusicGen, and Stock assets such as photos, videos, and graphics.
I've wanted to create something like this for a while, and this challenge gave me the perfect opportunity to finally explore the idea and tell an important story through design. 💜

Beautiful! 🤍
Hey everyone,
For the Envato Hackathon: Human by Design, I created a brand exploration for one of the most anticipated events for cricket fans, the Cricket World Cup 2027.
My process usually starts with the defining story first. I collect references, get a clear picture of the mood I'm going for, and then figure out how to actually bring it to life using stock assets, design tools, and AI as my execution partner. For this one, I wanted the whole thing to feel vibrant, dynamic, and bold, basically a visual system that captures the energy of the game.
I'll be adding a walkthrough video in comments showing how I arrived at certain creative decisions, and how @envato assets & AI tools helped shape the final look and feel.
