𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘆 🥹❤️. Most people know me as a designer and art director, but in reality, a huge part of what I do is education

For the past 4 years, I’ve been building my own design school Hyperactive Education where we teach UI/UX design, product design, and how to build strong portfolios from scratch to advanced level

Honestly, this is one of my favorite moments in the entire process. Because this is the moment when I get to see students “become designers” for the first time

They go from learning fundamentals to presenting full projects as if they’re speaking to real clients or stakeholders.

What makes it even more meaningful is that I grow together with every cohort.

My students constantly show me what can be improved — in the system, in the teaching, in how we structure learning. So in a way, their progress is also a reflection of my own work and my team’s work.

It’s a shared responsibility. And always a moment of evaluation from both sides

Today I’m genuinely proud. I saw people who just a few weeks ago were learning basics now confidently presenting complete, thoughtful design projects.

And it never stops being emotional for me 🥹🥹🥹

The Design Oracle is Live ✨ | Squarespace Make It Real Challenge Ever wondered if that "final_FINAL_v4" file is actually the last one? Or if the client will ask to make the logo just a little bit bigger? Let the cards decide. 🔮 I’m thrilled to unveil The Design Oracle (or Design Arcana)—an interactive, mystical tarot experience created specifically for freelancers and designers to reveal the fate of their current projects. This is my official submission for the Squarespace Make It Real Challenge. My goal was to completely break away from standard grid layouts and see how far I could push the creative boundaries using the new Finish Layer tools. Here is how the magic works behind the scenes (without a single line of custom code): Z-Axis & Overlapping: Used Fluid Engine to scatter the cards and floating stickers across the canvas, creating depth and a true "spread" feel. Hover Reveals: Leveraged native image swap effects so users can organically "draw" a card just by exploring the screen. Mobile Overrides: Rebuilt the entire chaotic desktop spread into a sleek, functional vertical stack for perfect mobile UX. After over a decade in UI/UX and brand design, I still believe the best projects start with pure creativity before locking into rigid systems. This was incredibly fun to build. Will you pull "The Golden Client" or "The Wheel of Feedback"? Take a deep breath, align your pixels, and draw your card here: https://round-herring-m73p.squarespace.
