GROOOMY 🐶 Smart booking for a one-woman dog groomer
Grooomy is a booking app for Marloes, who runs a dog grooming atelier on her own. Customers book in about a minute, and the app reserves exactly the table time each dog needs.
What I built: Every groom takes a different amount of time. A Chihuahua takes an hour, a matted Bernese takes four. Marloes used to plan every appointment over WhatsApp: nine messages, two days and the occasional no-show. Grooomy fixes that:✅
✅ Customers describe their dog (size, coat, tangles), and the duration and price are calculated automatically.
✅ Only time slots where the full groom fits are shown, so there are no double bookings and no gaps too short to use.
✅ Returning customers are recognised by phone number, and new customers pay a small deposit.
✅ Customers can change or cancel with one tap.
✅ When a day is full, dogs join a waitlist, and a cancellation is offered to the next matching dog automatically.
✅ Marloes gets a dashboard with her day at a glance, the week, the waitlist, customers and every automated message.
How I built it: I started with the scenario and design research, designed the brand and every screen, then turned each screen into a precise prompt for Lovable. The app runs on Lovable Cloud with a real database for bookings, customers and the waitlist. The design process video is on the Story page.

Worked really hard on this and loved working with Lovable for the first time! Let me know what you think! 🔥

Designed the website for Dovora — an agency that builds businesses for creators, not brand deals. "We don't represent brands, we don't split focus" is basically the whole pitch, and I wanted the site to feel just as uncompromising.
So no polished stock creator-economy visuals. The hero is a wall of real streamer/podcast footage arranged in overlapping diamonds and rounded frames — actual creators, mid-stream, mid-laugh — with a glowing gradient orb behind bold "WE BUILD CREATOR BUSINESSES" type. It reads more like a highlight reel than a landing page, which felt right for an audience that lives on camera.
The second section flips the energy completely — dark, minimal, almost aggressive typography ("BUILT EXCLUSIVELY FOR CREATORS. FULL STOP.") paired with huge chrome-and-neon 3D letterforms spelling out CREATORS. It's loud in a completely different way than the hero, and that contrast is intentional — this isn't a buttoned-up agency deck, it's built for people who make content for a living.
Genuinely fun brief to lean all the way into.
Imagine sending someone a link and saying, “This is my business.”
I made this 30-second film for Launch in Seven’s new Business Idea to First Launch service. It shows an illustrative plant-care idea becoming a clear offer, a mobile-friendly page, an inquiry path and outreach drafts.
The $1,500 fixed package includes one offer brief, one responsive landing page, one connected inquiry form, three outreach drafts and one consolidated revision. Domain and hosting costs are separate. Scope, inputs and delivery date are agreed before we start.
Explore the package or message me with your idea and who it helps:

Original illustrative example, not a client commission or sales result. Custom motion, generated imagery, narration and original music.
Wonderful !
Two ways to build the same fitness app.
A: AI-first. No tabs, no dashboards. The app is one conversation with a coach that already knows you slept six hours and squatted heavy on Tuesday. You log sets by talking. The plan rewrites itself mid-workout.
B: The modern standard. Home, today's workout, set-by-set logging, class booking, progress. Everything a member expects, done properly.
Same brand, same components, same build quality. The only real difference is how much you're asking the user to unlearn.
Most gyms should ship B. A few should bet on A.
Which one would you open tomorrow morning?

Going with A here, the idea of the plan rewriting itself mid-workout instead of you scrolling a dashboard feels like where fitness apps eventually land. Would you actually ship the AI-first version to real users right now, or is it more of a thought experiment at this stage?
