Last year around this time I felt that Webdesign and Branding weren't scratching my design Itch anymore, and decided I would try and take on more iOS projects.
Fast forward one year, and I've worked on more than 10 projects, most of which are live in Appstore already, and landed a gig for Freelance App Designer at BeReal in the process. The best part? I feel like I have still so much more to learn!
Exploit your design powers, expand your offer and learn something new whenever you have a chance!
Landing BeReal off the back of a pivot into iOS work is a great outcome, congrats. Ten plus shipped apps in a year is no small output either, did the pivot feel risky at the time or were you already getting enough interest in mobile work before you committed to it?
that's the plan!
Landing the BeReal gig out of this pivot is such a good outcome, congrats. What finally tipped it for you, one project that hooked you or just a slow build up of wanting to try mobile?
It's amazing what can happen in a year when you commit to learning instead of staying comfortable. Well done

Full brand identity, packaging design, Amazon assets, and custom illustrations for this dog calming chews brand.
One of the main challenges: designing two packaging variants that felt like the same world but communicated different moments. Daytime calm and nighttime calm read very differently.
More coming soon.
Nice one
Augment is a B2B SaaS website design project for an AI automation platform built for the logistics industry. Augie is an AI agent that works with brokers, freight operators, and carriers individually on their workflows. Pixel One designed the full product website to introduce Augie to an industry encountering AI for the first time.
We designed the website to show each section answer a specific question a logistics visitor would have. The abstracted UI and chat interface at the end defined the visual language for the use case animations across the entire product. Augment raised a $25M seed round followed by an $85M Series A five months later. Augie now supports over $35 billion in freight under management.
