Modern Biophilic Hillside Villa Concept
This modern luxury residence seamlessly integrates sustainable architecture with its natural context by using cantilevered geometric volumes, extensive green roofing, and warm wood cladding paired with board-formed concrete. Designed to follow the natural topography, the villa features expansive multi-level outdoor terraces, a rooftop lounge with integrated planter beds, and a lap pool projecting into the tree canopy. Floor-to-ceiling glass facades maximize natural daylighting while offering unobstructed panoramic views of the surrounding woodland, creating a fluid transition between high-end interior spaces and the forest environment.

The First Seed
A one-take AI short film created with Seedance 2.5 in CapCut Video Studio.
What if something as small as planting a single seed could become bigger than the person who planted it?
The First Seed follows a young girl who plants a tiny seed in her garden. Without realizing it, that small moment becomes the beginning of a journey through decades, generations, cities, nature, and eventually beyond Earth.
The entire film is designed as one continuous camera journey. The camera physically moves through the world as the story evolves, using natural transitions through leaves, branches, environments, and scale to carry the viewer from childhood to old age and finally into the future.
The visual idea was intentionally built around contrast: something incredibly small becoming something impossibly large.
For the visual development stage, I also used Gemini to generate and explore some reference imagery that helped establish the characters, environments, and overall visual direction. The final film generation and one-take workflow were created in CapCut Video Studio using Seedance 2.5.
The film is ultimately about one simple idea:
Nothing beautiful starts big.
