Some products don't need to speak — they just need to be felt.
HOVR was that kind of design challenge. I stripped the UI down to almost nothing — bare typography, invisible nav, pure editorial tension — and let the product carry the weight. The image bleeding across sections wasn't an accident. It was the whole idea.
When design gets out of the way, desire walks in. Built in Figma. Felt everywhere.

What if you could create a 3D interactive product just by prompting?
I built this vintage typewriter simulator using Omma.
Omma is a new vibecoding tool that lets you create interactive experiences with motion, input, and logic. It’s especially strong for 3D since it’s powered by Spline.
I usually vibecode flat interfaces, so exploring something more 3D like this was really fun!

Can an AI tool understand your aesthetic or just simulate it?
I fed Google Stitch one prompt. No code. No Figma.
Full dark UI. Filterable gallery. Cyber-brutalist system.
Mobile-responsive. Figma export. One shot.
~70% of my vision. But the soul wasn't there.
I had to push it:
→ "More chaotic"
→ "Denser. Less whitespace."
→ "Typography more system-like."
Iteration requires taste.
Taste isn't in the prompt.
Stitch is a validated idea machine.
The Figma export alone is worth it for MVPs.
But the freelancers who win?
The ones who know exactly what to ask and why.
The prompt is the brief. Write it like one.
Wow, obviously design is awesome but I also liked what you're saying in the post "The prompt is the brief. Write it like one." that summarizes your approach!
Reimagining an NFT marketplace with a minimal approach — MintVerse
For this project, I focused on simplifying the NFT experience through clean design and better usability.
I used Mobbin to study real product patterns like onboarding, navigation, and layouts. The goal wasn’t to copy designs, but to understand how great UX works and apply those principles in my own way.
Using Replit AI, I quickly turned these insights into a working product and iterated faster on design decisions like spacing, hierarchy, and clarity.
MintVerse is built from understanding, not imitation.
