Hey everyone,
For the Envato Hackathon: Human by Design, I created a brand exploration for one of the most anticipated events for cricket fans, the Cricket World Cup 2027.
My process usually starts with the defining story first. I collect references, get a clear picture of the mood I'm going for, and then figure out how to actually bring it to life using stock assets, design tools, and AI as my execution partner. For this one, I wanted the whole thing to feel vibrant, dynamic, and bold, basically a visual system that captures the energy of the game.
I'll be adding a walkthrough video in comments showing how I arrived at certain creative decisions, and how @envato assets & AI tools helped shape the final look and feel.

Hi everyone! 👋
For the #envatochallenge, I wanted to explore Envato in as many ways as possible, from stock assets and fonts to AI image generation, video creation, animation, mockups, and even the music for this video. To do that, I created Cherry's kitchen — a cozy café brand inspired by warm summer afternoons, homemade cherry desserts, and family gatherings.
Throughout the project, I used Envato as my main creative toolkit while bringing everything together in Figma. I designed the mascot, visual identity, packaging, café interiors, animations, and brand guidelines. And honestly... I just couldn't stop exploring. Every time I finished one part of the project, I found another way to bring the brand to life.
One of my favorite parts of the process was deciding what truly belonged in the brand identity. I explored different concepts and made the creative decision, choosing what to keep, what to refine, and what to leave behind.
Check out the process video below! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the project 🍒😍
love seeing your process for this!
My entry for the Envato × Contra Human by Design challenge.
AI has changed the game and made almost anything possible. But just because you can make anything doesn’t mean you always know what to make.
For this one, I took one simple piece of Envato’s identity, the logo, and pushed it as far as I could with one goal: make a pretty sick ad.
From there, it was a lot of experimenting, prompting, failing, refining, and eventually bringing all those ideas to life using Envato’s AI tools.
The result is my take on Human by Design. AI can give us endless possibilities, but someone still has to come up with the idea and decide where to take it.
100% created using Envato’s AI features.
Human By Design
Every masterpiece begins with a single idea.
From the first architectural sketches of ancient civilizations to the iconic structures of the modern world, humanity has always transformed imagination into reality.
Human By Design explores this journey through the evolution of a simple pencil stroke.
A single line becomes a geometric idea.
The idea becomes a blueprint.
The blueprint becomes architecture.
And architecture becomes the future.
Using AI as a creative tool, I explored how human vision and technology can work together to transform concepts into cinematic experiences. Each chapter represents a different expression of human creativity — knowledge, harmony, beauty, ambition, innovation, and the possibilities of tomorrow.
The final future city represents the next chapter of design: a world where creativity, technology, and humanity continue to evolve together.
Human By Design is a tribute to the imagination that turns simple ideas into extraordinary realities.

This is absolutely stunning. I really love how you turned a single pencil stroke into the evolution of human civilization. The storytelling, pacing, and visual transitions all feel incredibly cinematic. Beautiful work!
