MILA Coffee — Social Media Content Concept ☕️
A playful, warm and modern social media concept created for a fictional coffee shop brand. I explored the visual identity, content direction and Instagram presence through product-focused, lifestyle, promotional and engagement content.

I wanted to explore the idea of how a culture can be collected, preserved, and remembered through visual artifacts.
I built a fictional Moroccan postal archive where each stamp acts like a small piece of a much larger story.
The five pieces are connected as one collection, moving through different parts of Moroccan life — from royal ceremony and marketplaces to music, interiors, clothing, and identity.
I wanted the collection to feel like something you could discover, rather than just look at.
So I turned the archive into an interactive magazine, where each piece opens up into its own little story, showing the original Met artwork, my reimagination, and the thinking behind it.
The whole thing is built around the idea of collecting fragments and bringing them together into one archive.
A collection that never existed, but could have.
this is so cool!
DILLY DALLYING at THE MET
[or The Fragile Thread]
FLORA × Museum Archive challenge
The brief: reimagine one of the Public Domain works of art in the Met Museum's archive, using the Flora AI Canvas.
Inspired by and working with two paintings: Soap Bubbles Jean Siméon Chardin (1733–34) and the portrait of Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zuñiga (1784–1792) by Goya.
At first glance, the two paintings seem different, but they share a common theme of the fragility of life and the preciousness of time. These are represented in elements such as the soap bubbles in Chardin’s painting, and the animals in Goya’s portrait. Here the animals serve as a “reminder of the frail boundaries that separate the child’s world from the forces of evil, or as a commentary on the fleeting nature of innocence and youth”.
To begin with, I made a simple mash-up between the subjects to have them interact in a brief video. Then I decided to pull it into a wider design: a contemporary concept exploring time and modern ideas of what is considered productive use of time. To counter the contemporary belief that time should be used productively, I explore notions of leisurely ‘dilly dallying’ and ‘doing nothing’, as a way to approach the theme.
Using key elements from the paintings; the two young subjects, the magpie in Goya’s painting and the soap bubble and ‘blow pipe’ from Chardin’s. From these elements I created:
- One large contemporary sculpture being displayed at a conceptual exhibition, showcasing the sculpture and the two paintings alongside each other.
- Various merchandise to accompany the exhibition.
- A campaign and event > The Met Live Matiné: ‘Dilly dally Sundays’ at the Met Museum.

Thanks to FLORA and Contra.
I didn’t think I’d have quite so much fun, but I certainly did! Loving the FLORA canvas and the possibilities it offers.
