I started my Instagram as a creative experiment. I wanted to try speaking about design from my own perspective😄
Over time, it became a separate creative space where I can express emotions and ideas through visuals.
I am a designer with many years of experience. I work with brand identities, client projects, and strategy. That is my foundation.
But designing posts for my own profile feels different. Here I shape the idea, set the boundaries, and decide when to break them.I can explore deeper topics, experiment visually, and try unconventional solutions that are not always possible in client work.
Here I am not just a designer for someone else. I am a designer for myself.🤌🏻

Experimenting a lot with AI, one thing became clear: AI can match your design vision, but only if you are specific. Vague prompts = generic results.
So here is my current process using Figma Make, before I build anything, I ask AI to analyze the design language of a screenshot to build a design system first. Think of it as a style guide where colors, typography, and spacing are all locked in. Once that foundation is there, I use that same design system to build my application, website, whatever the project is.
The result? Way more consistent outputs and a lot less back and forth.
Style first, build later, makes total sense. Feels like treating AI as a junior designer instead of a magic box.
Give Cursor AI a shot too
Culturepulse is a marketplace where sports culture, memorabilia, and blockchain technology intersect. The platform allows athletes and creators to release collectible items that exist simultaneously in the physical and digital worlds — a jersey, a sneaker, or a card becomes both a real object and a verified NFT tied to a specific moment in a career.
The concept of physical + digital collectibles is so ahead of its time. And that 3D glass cube render on the orange type? Stunning 👏
love the imagery here of the gummy bears, especially the very top left one
