Huge news
A website I designed (and started here in Contra) just got nominated on Awwwards for Website of the Month.
This project means a lot to me, countless hours, details, and ideas that finally came together.
It’s an honor just to be up there among so many incredible sites.
If you’ve got a minute, I’d love your support ❤️

Daydream - Concept ⁰: Soft Spectrum
Our earliest concept, imperfect but full of intent.
A spectrum of color and feeling that shaped how Daydream came to life.

Spent the weekend sick on the couch rewatching Harry Potter… and weirdly it reset my brain in the best way.
Sometimes creativity needs rest, nostalgia and zero pressure.
Wrote about it in this week’s Bright Method

Just released a new Bright Method issue, a personal one.
It’s about something I think a lot of creative people quietly deal with: how easy it is to get pulled into other people’s drama… and how much it drains the energy you actually need for your work.
I’ve learned to protect my energy the same way I protect my time. It’s made my work better, my decisions cleaner, and my days a lot lighter.

Just dropped a new issue of The Bright Method
This one is about something I can’t stop thinking about how trust scales faster than design.
We chase designs, big reveals, and clever animations…
but none of it matters if people don’t trust what they’re seeing.
Trust is the real UX.
It’s what makes teams move faster, clients worry less, and products actually grow.
That’s what this week’s issue is about, how to design with trust at the core, not as an afterthought.
- And if you want to see where the idea came from, the full convo with @Gajus Kuizinas (Co-Founder of Contra) is up now on our YouTube: https://youtu.be/TnV9Dpirj9Y?si=-ltOStVVbYE27DrI

WIP built in Framer with a bit of Unicord Studio Magic ✨
Testing a smoother CTA flow that feels less like a “button” and more like part of the story.
I’ve been mixing tools lately to speed up exploration and lock in design direction faster. Framer for structure, Unicorn for motion and expression.
Working in B&W will make you think about cooler layouts.

Played around with LoveArt today, and ended up mixing a little bit of Paper as well for some cool texture and animation.
So I reimagined Hennessy Cognac through a modern and a surreal lens.. Just exploring and getting lost in the tool.
