📺✨ Gesture TV
For the #ConfigMakeathon, I wanted to build something creative, playful, and a little unexpected. I explored a simple idea:
What if an old-school TV could understand your hand gestures?
So I built Gesture TV — an interactive retro television where your hands become the remote.
Draw circles with your index finger to create a vortex
Pinch to generate ripples across the screen
Stretch and squeeze the camera feed like elastic
Trigger emoji showers
Launch emoji confetti
The most fun part was experimenting with gesture-based interactions and seeing how far I could push the experience using Figma Make while keeping it intuitive enough for anyone to instantly pick up and play.
No onboarding.
No instructions.
Just open it and start bending reality. ✨
Built with Figma Make for #ConfigMakeathon

Would love to know which gesture effect you'd add next 👀

Amazing
The hot pink type against those darker travel shots works really well.
I’m exploring two homepage hero directions for a Scramble Systems concept and testing which layout communicates the message more effectively.
Both directions use the same core idea: helping small teams deliver big wins in tough situations.
Direction 1 feels more structured and modular.
The large brand title creates a strong first impression, while the green content block makes the key message feel direct and contained.
Direction 2 feels more dynamic and action-driven.
The headline becomes the main focus, the green emphasis adds more energy, and the large athlete image makes the concept feel more immediate.
Direction 1: bold, structured, brand-forward
Direction 2: dynamic, focused, action-driven
Which direction feels stronger for a consulting/leadership website?
