I'm about to launch the new version of my portfolio made with Claude Code and Figma. I'm more than excited with the result. I could say that after more than a decade working as a designer, this has been the most exciting portfolio-building experience.
Why? I always struggle to get a result that I feel connected to. Here I could experiment and play with a collage! something that I wanted to do a long time ago, but I didn't know how to actually make it.
Sharing the new version soon! 🎉

This is impressive and shows a lot of potential. It makes me wonder—what’s the next level for you after this?
How do you know when it's time to rebuild a portfolio?
For me, it was a slow realization. My work, thinking, and vision had quietly outgrown the site - and at some point, I couldn't ignore it anymore.
The problem wasn't the design. It was that I kept growing, and the site didn't.
So I finally rebuilt it. From scratch. No templates, no shortcuts - Framer for structure, Rive animations woven throughout. I wanted the site itself to feel like a piece of work, not just a shelf for work.

Building it also made me think harder about what actually belongs in a portfolio. Because a rebuild forces you to make cuts. And cuts are uncomfortable.
A few questions I kept coming back to:
→ Does this project still represent how I think?
→ Would I be proud to walk a client through this today?
→ Is it here because it's good or because I spent a lot of time on it?
That last one is the hardest.
Would love to know how you approach this. When does a project stop earning its place?
Questioning what it's working and what's not is always a 10/10 start!
