Meet Brand Interpreter.
For decades, brand identity existed in two irreconcilable forms: the static PDF a designer handed to a client, and the living codebase a developer actually built from. Between them sat hours of manual translation... colours re-entered, typefaces re-specified, rules re-explained. This work asked designers to be data-entry clerks.
Brand Interpreter proposes a different relationship between document and canvas. A brand guidelines PDF is the designer's most complete creative statement, read by an AI agent that understands not just the colours and fonts on the page, but the rules governing their use, the errors hiding in their specification, and the personality encoded in the language surrounding them. From this reading, the agent constructs a living design system directly on a connected canvas: structured, editable, and ready to export as code.
What the agent builds is the document's intent, distilled, but made operable.

Supplementing work, not replacing it.
Brand Identity Project for Omemo.
Omemo is an AI Meeting Agent with a twist, it is designed for those who are on the fence about using AI in their work. Omemo useses it's 'Omemo Level' to give users complete control over how involved it is in their day to day workflow.
Their mission is to showcase that AI is here to help supplement work, not replace it. The idea behind the identity was to create a brand that didn't feel 'AI' and didn't feel intrusive.
Built on the foundation of the brand new core idea 'Elevating people not replacing them', I designed a full identity system that includes a custom logomark, colour palette, iconography set and UI elements.
Nice!
Sharing a recent full brand identity created for CASA, a concept home decor studio based in Lisbon, Portugal.
The brief called for a brand identity that felt elegant, crafted, and rooted in heritage. The logo draws from Art Nouveau ornamental detail, centered around an arched iron gate that references old European architecture and the idea of home as a personal sanctuary.
The full system includes a logo suite, earthy color palette, packaging, stationery, signage, social media templates, and arch-shaped business cards.

I'd love to read your thoughts on this.
If you are looking for a designer to build a complete brand world for your business, let's talk. ✨
This looks clean and well thought out. How long did it take you to bring everything together?
How are you actually structuring your AI workflow right now - are your tools connected, or are you still using them separately?
I’ve landed on a pretty simple system using just Claude + Flora.
Claude is where I develop the thinking - my existing brand direction, concepts, and refining prompts until they actually reflect the creative intent behind the project.
Flora is where that intent becomes visual. It’s a node-based canvas, so I can generate imagery, iterate variations, drop in mockups, and build full product scenes in one connected system.
I don’t see AI replacing design thinking. I see it speeding up execution while I stay fully in control of direction, taste, and decisions.
Curious to hear from you guys 🤔
📢 What does your AI workflow look like right now?
📢 What tools are you actually using day to day?
📢 And is there anything you think I should check out?
Would love to hear how others are building their systems.
this is wonderful, i love your lightning!
