Air Sculpt - sculpt with your bare hands, in the air.
For 30,000 years we've shaped stone with our hands. I wanted to know: what if you still could - without ever touching a mouse?
Air Sculpt is a browser tool where you sculpt a real 3D marble form using only hand gestures, tracked live through your webcam, then export a genuine, 3D-printable file. The oldest art, in the palm of your hand.
🏛️ What it does
Pinch in the air to carve - the marble swells where you point, like clay
Press to push in, Smooth to polish, two hands to scale, a fist to rotate
Switch materials - marble, clay, bronze, alabaster
Finish → name your piece → export a real .STL you can 3D print
Every sculpture lives on in a museum gallery you turn through like a real exhibition
The whole thing is built as a classical sculpture museum - warm marble, golden skylight, an atelier you step into. Modern hands, ancient craft.
✨ How Wonder made it possible
I designed the entire world in Wonder:
Wonder Chat — built every screen (atelier, gallery, reveal, about) by describing them and reshaping on the canvas
Shaders — the golden museum light, drifting marble dust, and glowing material spheres are all real Wonder shaders, the whole atmosphere, not decoration
Figma paste-in — sketched a frame in Figma, dropped it in, Wonder matched it
MCP → Claude Code — because in Wonder the design is real code, I connected straight to Claude Code and shipped the whole thing live. No handoff, no rebuild. What I designed is what shipped.
The hand-tracking runs on MediaPipe + Three.js; Wonder was the design engine behind all of it.
I walked into Wonder to design a museum and walked out with a working product.
Built for the Wonder Challenge
This sounds incredible! How intuitive is the hand-tracking for intricate details?
Thanks Victor! Honestly it's better for organic, sculptural forms than fine detail right now, pinch-to-carve feels really natural for pulling out shapes, smoothing, big gestures. Intricate detail is the harder edge (webcam depth + hand jitter), so I lean on the chisel-size + smooth tools for control there
really cool idea man, wish you the best
sick work g
So coool fr 😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻

Not everything I build lives in Framer.
This one's a code project: I rebuilt Payy's React marketing site — a stablecoin payments company — from the front-end up. New typography system, a reusable motion foundation (scroll reveals, animated stats, page transitions), a handful of custom components, and a footer with proper parallax. All hand-written, no UI framework doing the heavy lifting.
I ran the whole build through Claude Code, which is where 15 years of front-end experience actually pays off — I'm not prompting and hoping. I know what good motion feels like, how to keep things performant and accessible, and where the real work is. The AI moves fast; the engineering judgment is mine. I also work fluently with MCPs like the Figma MCP, so I can pull straight from design files into clean, accurate code.
If you've got a Figma design that needs to become a real, performant site — in React, not just Framer — that's squarely my lane. Happy to talk through what you're building.
Clean UI👏
Template #3 coming along nicely. Almost finished all pages design and animation prototypes.
For some reason I am still doing most of prototyping not directly in framer but directly in claude code
Cool 😍
This morning I found a local bakery website with great branding, but the hero section lacked impact; it just showed a single, isolated, small loaf of bread on a dark background.
I jumped into Framer to see how to elevate it and designed two alternative versions:
Option 1: The Focused Loaf. True to the original concept, but re-engineered for a much stronger visual hierarchy.
Option 2: The Working Station. An immersive, storytelling approach that drops you right onto the baker's table.
Which version do you think works better for a premium bakery? Let me know below! 👇
