Cover image for What if the Krusty Krab

What if the Krusty Krab hit the road? 🍔🛻 I reimagined the iconic Krusty Krab as a real-world food truck and brought the idea to life with Squarespace. From playful visuals and custom illustrations to an immersive scrolling experience, every section was designed to capture the charm and nostalgia of Bikini Bottom. I also used Finish Layer to add animations, hover interactions, layered visuals, and smooth transitions that make the experience feel more dynamic and engaging. 🔗 Website: https://cardioid-helicon-94jp.squarespace.com (https://cardioid-helicon-94jp.squarespace.com)🔒 Password: square

Cover image for MINITEL DU SUD — La

MINITEL DU SUD — La légende se reconnecte 🖥️📞 The idea: what if France's heritage sportswear house revived the Minitel — the terminal that connected millions of French homes from 1982 to 2012 — the way a maison reissues an archive icon? Making it real: a numbered edition of 50, hand-restored in Marseille, with a full campaign world, a working storefront, and a soundtrack — built end-to-end on Squarespace 7.1 / Fluid Engine. How Finish Layer made it real: Font Uploads — a custom pixel typeface as the "machine voice": title, ticker, teletext annotations. No code injection. Block layering — the serif headline interrupted by the machine; the campaign broadcasting inside the terminal's screen, video layered under the frame. Pinned hero text — the composition holds through the scroll. Block Animations — hover reveals hide edition serials behind the campaign cards (N° 07/50 — RÉSERVÉ). Block Hiding (Mobile) — desktop gets the theater; mobile gets a streamlined vertical flow. Beyond the layout: a fully functional storefront built with real commerce settings — 50 units in inventory, limit 1 per order, so the scarcity story is enforced by the system, not just the copy. (Concept project: nothing ships, no payments are processed — the store demonstrates the commerce build.) Plus an original French-electronic track — the hold music of 1990, composed for the terminals — closing with a scroll-scaled banner: « MONTE LE SON. » Toolkit: Midjourney (campaign imagery, locked style refs) · Departure Mono by Helena Zhang (SIL OFL) · Suno (soundtrack) · SquareKicker (window reveal, horizontal scroll, scroll-scale banner) 🔗 minitel-contra.squarespace.com (http://minitel-contra.squarespace.com) — password: 3615 (the dial code, of course) Projet conceptuel — not affiliated with Orange S.A. Minitel is a trademark of its respective owner. #squarespacechallenge

Cover image for Retro Reel Timer — Minimal

Retro Reel Timer — Minimal Cartoon UI A playful reinterpretation of a classic reel-to-reel timer, redesigned with a softer colour palette, simplified shapes and a clean cartoon-inspired visual style. The interface keeps the nostalgic character of analogue recording equipment while presenting the controls in a modern, friendly and easy-to-understand layout. The design focuses on strong visual hierarchy, balanced spacing and clear interaction states. Bold timer typography, rounded controls and subtle depth help the interface feel approachable without becoming visually cluttered, creating a distinctive concept suitable for a mobile timer, audio recorder or productivity application.

This logo mark began with research into South African heritage. I kept returning to the country’s flag, especially the green Y-shaped form at its center. I isolated that shape, refined it, and rotated it around a central axis until each piece aligned into one balanced symbol. The result feels warm, natural, and rooted in heritage, while still giving the skincare brand a modern and distinctive identity.

Cover image for I've shared some 375ai work

I've shared some 375ai work this week already, but there's one part of this project I keep coming back to: watching the same logomark hold up everywhere. When I was designing it, I was mostly worried about the small stuff, whether the mark would still read as an app icon or a favicon. Then a few months later it's 20 meters wide behind a speaker at an investors conference, and somehow it still feels like the same brand. The video shows how the mark is built, next to the actual lidar scans the product makes. That's where the dot pattern came from in the first place, so it never felt like decoration to me. Curious how other designers approach this: do you start from the smallest size a logo has to survive at, or design the big version first and scale down?

Cover image for My entry for the Envato

My entry for the Envato × Contra Human by Design challenge. AI has changed the game and made almost anything possible. But just because you can make anything doesn’t mean you always know what to make. For this one, I took one simple piece of Envato’s identity, the logo, and pushed it as far as I could with one goal: make a pretty sick ad. From there, it was a lot of experimenting, prompting, failing, refining, and eventually bringing all those ideas to life using Envato’s AI tools. The result is my take on Human by Design. AI can give us endless possibilities, but someone still has to come up with the idea and decide where to take it. 100% created using Envato’s AI features.

Cover image for For this challenge, I wanted

For this challenge, I wanted to create more than just a logo or a promotional asset. I wanted to build the foundation of a brand. Runner Community is a concept for a global community where runners can discover races, connect with local running communities, and find inspiration through events, training, and shared experiences. To bring the idea to life, I used Envato Elements as my primary creative toolkit, including: AI Image Generator AI Video Generator AI Mockups Website Templates Video Templates Music Sound Effects These resources helped me rapidly explore ideas and create professional visual assets. I refined the prompts, selected different visual styles, adjusted the color palette, rejected multiple AI-generated concepts, and curated only the assets that aligned with the brand I envisioned. I also chose the pacing, music, mockups, and final promotional sequence to create an energetic yet approachable identity. Breakdown provided in the comments.

Cover image for oof! finally able to share

oof! finally able to share the final piece!! if you haven't been keeping up with my updates: ⭐ on day 1 I brainstormed alongside Gemini, merging my ideas with theirs and ending up with an outline of what I wanted to do for this challenge ⭐ day 2 I collected the raw footage I filmed and started putting together a folder with all my assets ⭐ day 3 I dove into Envato for the first time in years and found stock video, music and sfx, and used AI to alter both one of my own clips and a stock one ⭐ day 4 was for the final touches, where I recorded the voiceover and put all the other assets together into the video you can see below - my final submission! (I also attached a screenshot of what my final project folder looked like - organized by source of each asset) my biggest AI win was definitely the clip where I asked it to replace my water bottle with the coffee machine and it mimicked my rings and tattoos without me even asking my AI flop, where I decided to intervene because AI just didn't do it justice, was the voiceover - it just felt off and emotionless, and instead of trying to tweak it to perfection I decided to just pick up the mic and do it myself! I'm also gonna be sharing this final video on my Instagram @freelancingwithsilvia - feel free to follow me there for all the freelancing vibes 🤩

Cover image for Terra — AI Environmental Risk

Terra — AI Environmental Risk Platform Designed the landing page and product UI for Terra — a platform that helps land developers and engineering teams see environmental risk (soil stability, tree canopy loss, water table depth) before breaking ground. The challenge: Development decisions are usually based on estimates, not real ground data — and by the time issues show up, it’s often too late to reverse them. The interface needed to make complex sensor/AI data feel immediate and trustworthy, without losing emotional weight. The solution: Raw, organic photography (wildflowers, grass, natural terrain) paired with clean glass-panel data cards — creating a visual tension between “nature” and “precision engineering.” Bold editorial typography carries the emotional message, while translucent metric cards surface real numbers: soil stability, canopy loss %, water table depth. A strong example of turning dense environmental data into something a non-technical stakeholder can understand in seconds.

Cover image for Apocrypha: Human by Design
For the

Apocrypha: Human by Design For the EnvatoChallenge, I wanted to explore a different relationship between AI and creativity. I created Apocrypha, a collectible card universe where every artifact begins as an AI-assisted concept but only becomes part of the archive through human taste, creative direction, and design. Instead of asking AI to create finished pieces, I used Envato as the main creative toolkit throughout the entire project. I explored its stock image and video library to build moodboards, collect textures, study compositions, and define the visual language of the world. I also used Envato AI to generate concepts for characters, artifacts, and environments, then refined, combined, and reworked them into a cohesive universe. Some of the concepts were even manually painted over to push them beyond the original AI output. Alongside the cards, I designed ArchiveOS, a living creative bible where I organize collections, lore, references, prompts, and every creative decision behind the project. It became the place where the entire world of Apocrypha could grow consistently. The biggest creative decision wasn't generating images. It was deciding what deserved to exist. Knowing when an idea felt wrong, when an artwork needed more work, when a concept should evolve, or when it should be discarded completely. AI gave me possibilities, but every final artifact exists because of human judgment. I'd love to hear what you think about this approach to AI-assisted worldbuilding.

Cover image for XPlace — Crypto-Backed Visa Card

XPlace — Crypto-Backed Visa Card Website design Designed the interface for XPlace — a platform that lets users borrow against their crypto holdings and spend through a Visa card, without selling assets or triggering taxable events. The challenge: Create a product that feels both trustworthy and premium — avoiding the typical "startup" look, and steering clear of the neon/gradient clichés so common in crypto design. The solution: A dark, cinematic mood built around a monochrome landscape backdrop, bold expressive typography, and a metallic Visa Platinum card as the central visual anchor. Minimal elements, maximum focus on one action: get the card. What's in the interface: — Full-bleed hero section with an atmospheric background — Large-scale headline that communicates value in seconds — 3D card render as a trust-building element — Transparent glass-effect header Built in Framer — this isn't just the landing page, there are several more screens and flows I'll share case study separately 👀

Cover image for Back from vacation and back

Back from vacation and back to creating. ☀️ Summer is a great time to take a break from deadlines and try out new ideas. Lately, I’ve been playing around with Cinema 4D simulations. I’ve mixed cloth, inflation, and dynamics to turn a regular sneaker into something fun and eye-catching. I think personal projects are the best way to quickly grow technical skills. Each experiment is a chance to discover new workflows, improve problem-solving, and bring fresh ideas to future client work. Always learning. Always experimenting. I’m excited to keep making more product animations and motion design projects. #Cinema4D #MotionDesign #3DAnimation #CGI #ProductVisualization #Redshift #Simulation #CreativeProcess #ProductAnimation #3DArtist

GenLayer is a brand for thinking machines. So the identity had to think too. Instead of a static pattern I built a fluid animation system: lines that continuously flow into one another, the way AI evolves through new thoughts and ideas. One system, endless moments, the same waves that breathe on the website also carry a conference wall or a product reveal. That's my bar for an AI-driven brand style: not "does it look techy," but "does it behave like the product." Curious how other designers handle this: when your identity is animated or generative, how do you keep it recognizable without freezing it into a template?
