I designed and developed this interactive cyberpunk street food experience for Gǒng Sì Night Market.

Capturing the grit and rain-slicked atmosphere of a near-future Kowloon market meant balancing speculative world-building with tactile interaction design. Combining animated neon typography and canvas puddle reflections with an interactive stall menu, a retro terminal ordering flow, and a simulated thermal receipt printer gave the entire digital commissary an authentic, lived-in weight.😊 🔥

📸 Haramaya Lens — From “Can I book?” to “You’re booked.”

I built Haramaya Lens, a booking system for a fictional photography and videography studio in Haramaya, Ethiopia, as part of the Lovable Challenge.

🔴 The Problem

For a busy solo photographer, booking customers can take a lot of time.

Customers often ask: “Are you available?” “What time can I come?” “Can I change my appointment?” “Did you confirm my booking?”

The owner may have to manually: • Check availability • Reply to messages • Find a suitable time • Confirm the appointment • Update the calendar • Send reminders • Handle rescheduling and cancellations • Follow up with customers who did not complete their booking

This creates back-and-forth communication, missed opportunities, scheduling conflicts, and unnecessary owner workload.

🟢 The Solution

Haramaya Lens turns the booking conversation into a simple self-service experience.

A customer can:

📸 Choose a service 📅 Select a date ⏰ See available time slots 📝 Enter their information ✅ Confirm the appointment 🎟️ Receive a booking reference 🔄 Reschedule or cancel when needed

At the same time, the owner gets:

📊 A clear dashboard 📆 Automatic booking/calendar updates ⏰ Availability management 🔔 Reminder tracking 🔄 Rescheduling management 📋 Customer and booking information 💬 Follow-up management

🚀 Key Advantages

1. Saves owner time Less manual messaging and fewer repetitive questions.

2. Reduces double bookings The system checks availability and prevents conflicting appointments.

3. Makes booking easier for customers Customers can book without waiting for the owner to reply.

4. Reduces missed appointments Reminder workflows help customers remember their bookings.

5. Makes rescheduling easier Customers can manage changes without unnecessary back-and-forth.

6. Gives the owner a clear overview Upcoming appointments, customers, availability, and follow-ups are organized in one place.

7. Works across devices The experience is designed for desktop, tablet, and mobile users.

🎯 The Main Idea

Instead of:

Customer message → Owner checks → Back-and-forth → Confirmation → Manual update

Haramaya Lens creates:

Choose service → Choose time → Confirm → You’re booked. ✅

I built this project to focus on one question:

How can we remove as much unnecessary work as possible between a customer saying “Can I book with you?” and the owner saying “You’re booked”?
