AREA is a fictional creative technology studio exploring how AI-native workflows can shape modern digital identity design.
I used Google Stitch to explore and refine the brand direction through typography studies, interaction concepts, motion systems, colour exploration, and in-place AI edits before rebuilding the final experience in Next.js with Framer Motion and deploying it on Vercel.
The final site focuses on cinematic pacing, editorial restraint, atmospheric motion, and immersive interaction design inspired by modern creative studio websites.

Stitch was strongest as a rapid creative direction and identity exploration tool. The in-place editing workflow made it easy to iteratively refine layouts, spacing, typography, and atmosphere while maintaining creative momentum.
The workflow became most powerful when paired with production tooling, using Stitch to establish the creative system first, then translating the final direction into code for deeper interaction and motion refinement.

Hexhaven - less setup, more game night.
I love playing Catan with friends, so I built a web app to make setting up our games easier.
Hexhaven generates boards for 4–6 players, supports custom house rules, and suggests balanced starting positions. It also includes a zoomable mobile board and device-saved leaderboards to keep our friendly rivalries going.
This project focused on functionality: translating game rules into working logic, handling different setup constraints, and making something useful at the table.

One By One Tattoo - AI-Powered Studio Platform
For this challenge, I reimagined the digital experience for One By One Tattoo, exploring how AI and automation could create a smoother experience for both customers and staff.
Instead of starting with a long enquiry form, customers complete a guided AI Consultation that captures their tattoo idea, placement, style and budget. The consultation generates a personalised Project Dossier with a recommended artist, estimated session duration, pricing guidance and AI-generated concept before flowing directly into booking and deposit payment.
Alongside this, a site-wide AI Concierge provides instant answers to questions about artists, pricing, aftercare and availability, helping users navigate the platform or jump straight into the consultation flow.
For the studio, I designed a complete admin platform to manage consultations, bookings, deposits, artists and customer communication from one place, replacing fragmented manual workflows with a single operational dashboard.
Built entirely in Base44, the project combines AI, structured data and automation to create a production-ready platform that goes beyond a traditional tattoo studio website.

PULSE is a concept for an intelligent freelancer operating system designed to bring projects, finances, notifications and AI-powered insights into a single command centre.
I built the entire concept in Wonder, using Wonder Chat to rapidly explore layouts and interface ideas, shader generation to create a distinctive visual identity, and iterative prompting to refine the experience from rough concepts into a polished product. Rather than moving between multiple tools, Wonder allowed me to stay in a single creative workflow, making it much faster to experiment, iterate and improve every screen.
The result is a premium, cohesive interface that demonstrates how AI-assisted design can accelerate the journey from idea to presentation-ready product while maintaining a high level of craft and visual consistency.

Repeat client work, this time the brief was a bit more specific. Client's original site had done it's work, but his body of work has grown to an extent now that the site needed a refresh. This time the client wanted a more obvious theme, and as their books are based around a flooded world then the theme was a no brainer. Getting the precise palette for the above sea elements was difficult and we went through a good number of iterations to get it right. It's amazing how if you make the sky too deep or add too much purple then the sea with these colours starts taking on a Disney look and feel! Definitely not what was wanted.

Today I've launched the next evolution of my non-fiction written work. For just over a year I've been writing long-form daily articles about Technology, Governance and the Human cost of the things we build at smarterarticles.co.uk (https://smarterarticles.co.uk)
Six weeks ago I launched a podcast, taking one of my published articles, and reworking it for the podcast format, with a new episode weekly.
Today I launched the accompanying website: smarterarticles.fm (https://smarterarticles.fm)
My spec was simple:-
1. Keep it simple, and minimalistic. My articles are published on a simple site, headlines, and content, and nothing more. I wanted to keep that simplicity.
2. Clean, professional, broadsheet-style publication.
3. No admin system. The site and its content take care of itself. I publish articles on a site that has an RSS feed, and I publish a podcast that has an RSS feed, so this site consumes both and the source of truth is where the content is originally published.
4. Plain English. Clear, precise, human. Read the About page or the Privacy Policy. I'm not trying to hide behind technobabble, only clarity.
5. No Cookies. No Tracking. No Analytics. No Recommendation Engine. No Profiling. No Selling or Sharing of Personal Data, clearly stated as a deliberate decision not an oversight seeking correction.
Here are some example pages, I'd encourage you, if you so wish, to visit the site and let me know your thoughts: smarterarticles.fm (https://smarterarticles.fm)

Continuing from yesterday, some further concepts....
Suds & Scruff Mobile Dog Grooming, Walthamstow, East London
Nia is made up. Her problems aren't.
She grooms dogs from a van across Walthamstow, Leyton and Chingford, and she works an area a day. Enquiries come in by DM while she's mid-groom, so she answers them at 9pm. Getting one dog booked takes about six messages. Two dogs a week don't turn up, and she's already driven there.
What I built:
Customers book themselves. Size and coat set the price and the time, and they only see days when the van is in their area.
If someone would rather message, the message gets a price, real slots and a booking link back in seconds.
The evening before, every customer gets a one-tap "still on?". Say nothing and the slot goes to the next dog on that area's waitlist. Nia gets one line she can undo.
Customers move or cancel their own bookings inside the same rules.
Nia's dashboard only lists what needs her. Everything else is logged with the minutes it saved: about five hours a week.
To see her side, click "See what Nia sees" at the top of the site. It signs you in to a demo account. Texts are simulated and every one is in the Outbox. Demo data resets every night.
