Taste Test
Glacio: a coffee shop for cat people
Glacio is a coffee place with a cat in it. I wanted the brand to feel like the shop itself: warm, a little playful, and somewhere you’d stay longer than you planned.
What I made:
A wordmark with a small cat touch
A color palette of emerald green, warm yellow, and cream, with a burnt red accent
Hand-drawn cat shapes to use as patterns and icons
A coffee cup mockup to see it all in use
The idea: Coffee shops tend to look the same. Glacio uses the cat as its main character, so the brand feels friendly rather than polished and cold.
Tagline: Sip. Settle. Stay awhile.
What do you think, would you walk in? Tell me what works and what doesn’t.

Making the cat the main character instead of another polished coffee shop look is such a smart move, and Dark gets my vote for the Taste Test. That dark cup with the burnt red accent feels warm and cozy, and the tagline Sip. Settle. Stay awhile. seals the deal. I would absolutely walk in.
Thanks alot for detail perspective.
Dark for me. The cat silhouette pops more against the deep brown.

New case study: Industrial IoT platform redesign with AI integration ⚡
Spent 5 weeks redesigning Lumicent’s industrial IoT platform. The headline change: cut alarm resolution from 4 taps to 1.
Started with a design audit that uncovered three UX failures burying the information operators actually needed to act. Mapped 3 personas (Technician, Risk Manager, Site Executive) and rebuilt the alarm, investigation, and home flows around how they actually make decisions under pressure.
AI assistant woven in at the right moments: contextual chat during investigation, daily brief on the home page, remedy suggestions at the point of alarm.
Putting the AI assistant at specific decision points, like remedy suggestions right at the alarm and a daily brief on the home page, feels much more useful than a generic chat box. Cutting alarm resolution from 4 taps to 1 is a strong result for operators working under pressure.
The full landing page design is complete.
I designed this website for a web design and development agency, with founders and growing businesses in mind.
Clear services, selected work, straightforward pricing and answers to common questions. Each section helps visitors understand the offer and take the next step.
Visually, I kept it consistent with teal accents, structured grids and corner details throughout.
Good to see all the sections come together.
Love how you’ve focused on clarity and consistency! The clear services and pricing make it easier for visitors to understand the offer and take the next step. 👏✨
