A self-initiated product: a booking and ordering system for a billiard club in Tbilisi. I designed it in Figma from scratch and built all of it, from the interface to the database.
Guests call the club and nobody answers. They arrive and every table is taken. They want food and wait at the bar. Side Pocket moves all of that to the website.
Key decisions
No guest accounts. A booking needs a name and a phone number. The guest gets a private link to move, extend or cancel. The link is the account.
A 15-minute hold. Guests check in with "I'm at the table." A table nobody claims goes to the waitlist, and the next person gets the same 15 minutes.
Ordering tied to the table. Guests order from their phone during the game, add time themselves and see the bill as it grows.
One screen for staff. Every table's state for the night, late arrivals and orders to serve pinned to the top, bookings and orders boards, alerts in Telegram.
A Telegram bot. It understands "table for 4 tonight at 8" in English or Russian and finishes the booking with buttons.
Scope
Guest site with live availability, single and group booking, waitlist, private booking page, table page with menu, cart and bill, email confirmations and reminders, staff dashboard, Telegram bot.
Stack
React 19, TanStack Start, TanStack Router and Query, Tailwind 4, Radix UI, Supabase Postgres with row-level security, pg_cron, Brevo and Resend, Telegram Bot API, Vitest.
Business rules sit in plain functions, separate from the UI and the database, with 73 tests. Only server functions touch the database.
My role
Product design, UI design, front-end, back-end, database, integrations.

nicety accomplished.. great work
A good landing page shouldn’t make you work to understand it.
Been working on a new project where the goal was simple:
Make a complex product feel simple, clear, and easy to explore.
Less explaining.
Less clutter.
More visual hierarchy.
A clearer path to the next step.
Still working through the details, but this one is coming together nicely.
Full case study soon.
This pairs well with the Hire Hangar screenshot because the design itself demonstrates the point—you don't need to reveal the whole project yet.

AURA ONE - a landing page built to feel as considered as the product itself.
For this challenge I designed and built a single-page site for a true wireless earbuds brand: 11 mm bio-cellulose drivers, 4.6 g per earbud, machined aluminium. The page tells that story the same way, scroll-driven sections, 3D product visuals, a materials breakdown, full technical specs, and a studio-grade editorial look from hero to contact form.
Everything on the page moves with intent: the product assembles piece by piece as you scroll, the specs reveal themselves like a product sheet coming alive, and the whole experience runs hands-free — which is exactly what the showcase video captures, start to finish.
Built end-to-end with Lovable. No templates, no shortcuts.
