Cover image for Deep Focus is a fictional
Deep Focus is a fictional macOS app that silences notifications so people can do deep work. The catch is the audience: people who need a productivity app are already tired of apps. Every competitor promises more features, so this page had to promise relief and turn it into a download within seconds. What I did I started from the pain, not the product. The second screen lists what a normal day looks like: push notifications, endless pings, 142 unread emails, context switching. I styled those chips like the four benefit chips in the hero, only white instead of frosted, so the visitor reads before and after without a line of explanation. The hero section design shows no interface on purpose. This product is about absence, and a screenshot would add noise, so a person alone in a field does the proving. The headline “Deep focus. Anywhere.” is a high-contrast serif because every tool in this category speaks in a grotesque, and a serif sounds calm and human. I kept one action, Download for macOS, with no pricing and no form. The first job of this landing page design is a download, and everything else can wait until after it. Would you keep the serif for the headline, or switch to a grotesque so it feels more like software?

Cover image for Motion Design & Art Direction
I
Motion Design & Art Direction I design motion from the first composition to the final frame, combining typography, graphic design and animation. This self-initiated series shows how I work with timing, weight and visual hierarchy. Letters stretch and rebound, geometric forms trigger chain reactions, and transitions carry one composition into the next. Each movement follows the same graphic language while giving each film a distinct pace. My focus is on how a design behaves over time: where the eye goes, how an element arrives, and when a transition needs to hold or accelerate.

Cover image for Here’s a little piece from
Here’s a little piece from my current project. As I watch the Swiss design concept become a part of my creative DNA, I find myself constantly gravitating towards this direction in web design. What’s really interesting is that Volume 3 studio and I are experimenting here, mixing things that seem completely unmixable at first glance. Since Volume 3 is a CGI and VFX studio, it was crucial to incorporate a 3D dimension into their brand communication. On top of that, a Terminal UI is exactly what keeps that technical vibe going. So, the final mix is International (Swiss) style, a Terminal UI, and a 3D feel brought to life by neumorphism. Crazy, right??? It looks simple and clean, but behind the scenes, there’s a massive amount of work on the details. We focused on all those little things that push the UX/UI into the premium segment — the things you don't necessarily see right away, but you definitely feel when you're on the page. The work is still ongoing, so I can't dive into reflecting on the whole process just yet, but I'm gonna keep revealing small parts here.

Cover image for A CPU runs four stages
A CPU runs four stages in under a nanosecond. Fetch, decode, execute, write back. Try explaining that in a paragraph. So I made a 3D exploration where every scroll is one stage. A piece turns from a technical drawing into 3D and locks into place, until the chip is complete. When people can see what your product does, they don't need a paragraph to believe it.

Cover image for GALA, Listening Café_ Brand Identity
GALA
GALA, Listening Café_ Brand Identity GALA — Listening Café Coffee. Records. Slow moments. GALA brings together the warmth of coffee and the pleasure of listening—a space to pause, settle in, and enjoy the moment. The wordmark’s bold, sculptural letterforms and flowing curves create a visual rhythm with a nostalgic spirit. Generous shapes and expressive negative spaces balance movement with a sense of ease. Deep burgundy and warm cream give the identity a rich, welcoming character. Vinyl-inspired arcs carry the listening concept across packaging and printed materials, while slender, elongated supporting typography contrasts with the weight of the logo. From coffee cups to listening-session cards, every detail shares one invitation: sip slowly, listen closely, and stay for another track. Take a pause. Press play.
