Lost+Found: Designing for Empathy in a Disposable World
The Concept (Shaping Culture)
In an era of instant gratification, we treat objects as replaceable. But memories—like a child’s toy or a grandfather’s watch, can't be easily reordered online. Lost+Found reimagines the community board to foster altruism, creating interactions that feel "safe" even in moments of panic.
How I Used Figma Make
I used Figma Make to bridge design and emotion, focusing on "Calm Interaction":
Leveraged responsiveness to ensure the shift from "Panic" (Losing) to "Action" (Reporting) feels seamless and grounding. No sign up, chill you can borrow your friend's phone to post.
This isn't just an app for finding keys; it's a design for finding each other.

“Reunite what matters” is a powerful emotional anchor.
Curious — how are you thinking about trust and verification between strangers? That seems critical for adoption.
Hi Thanks,
For trust and verification, I’m starting from the moment someone has just lost something and is already stressed. Couple question still needed to see if both side have mutual intention. This app designed to make sure never reveal private contact before passing that...

A fuller look at the brand identity work we for Vetti, a dog health monitoring brand.
The connected dots carry through the whole identity. They form the mark, expand into patterns and give the campaign a recognisable language of its own. Sometimes they fill the layout.
Paired with warm orange and cream the system has room for both the technology and the dogs it’s there for.
Looks very nice welldone
An experiment exploring how to visually communicate design impact through a draggable before/after slider. Built to test the interaction and motion feel of scrubbing between two states of a design, it uses a small format to show transformation at a glance 😊
The compact format is doing a lot of work—the draggable reveal makes the improvement immediately legible, while the consistent card rhythm keeps the comparison easy to scan.
