Hey Contra 👋 I'm Amna, a web & product designer who lives in Figma and builds in Framer.

But here, I'm starting from zero.

I've worked across 2 companies, built a portfolio I'm genuinely proud of, and now I'm ready to do it on my own terms.

One goal: land my first client on Contra.

I'll be sharing my designs, my process, and the real journey of going independent.

If you love clean UI, great web experiences, or just want to watch someone build from scratch, hit follow. 🙌

I built a website you can’t delete.

👉 https://shubhxt.zo.space/

Instead of a portfolio, I wanted to create something people would play with.

So I made a simple challenge: “Try to delete me.”

Every click fights back. The UI reacts, shifts, resists… and slowly reveals who I am.

It’s not about reading. It’s about interacting.

Built entirely on Zo Computer ⚡

Curious to see if you can actually delete it 👀

This hero video looks like a produced shoot. It's fully AI-generated. Planner app concept we designed at the studio. We wanted the hero to feel light and effortless. People in hero sections work great for that. But clients rarely have good footage, and stock always looks dead. So we experimented with AI. Generated the image with Nano Banana. Turned it into video with Kling. Zero production budget. AI visuals are past the "looks AI" phase. Now it's about taste. Would you ship this to a client?
