Every designer has a moodboard. It lives somewhere else — another tab, another app. Never visible while you work.
So I built Peripheral: a curator that sits next to your Paper canvas. Reads what you're making. Surfaces references. Captions each one in 3 words.
@paper + Claude Code, via MCP.
ooh this is so helpful

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 🤔

Nature meets Craft: A Whimsical Journey with AI 🍄✨ I wanted to explore the intersection of traditional handmade textures and modern cinematic AI. Using FLORA, I’ve brought this intricate, hand-crocheted mushroom jacket to life, focusing on the hyper-realistic yarn details and the organic movement of 3D elements. This piece isn't just about fashion; it’s about storytelling through texture and light. 🌿🧶

This is very well put together—the clarity and structure show that every decision was intentional. It’s the kind of work that looks simple on the surface but clearly required strong judgment behind the scenes. When you were building this, how did you decide what to prioritize and what to leave out?
