✦ Project Overview
Designed and developed a custom personal portfolio that breaks away from traditional layouts.
Inspired by the Mac OS desktop experience, the website treats projects like applications—creating a familiar yet immersive way to explore creative work.
The focus was to combine storytelling, interaction, and structure into a single cohesive experience.
✦ Interactive Desktop-Like Features
The website closely mirrors the behavior of a Mac desktop, transforming the portfolio into an interactive environment rather than a static page.

◉ Drag & Drop App Icons
Desktop-style icons that can be dragged and repositioned

Encourages playful interaction and exploration
◉ Multiple Window Interaction
Multiple project windows can be opened simultaneously
Window-based navigation similar to Mac OS apps

✦ Gallery Experience
The gallery is designed as a visual archive that highlights the client’s creative range while staying aligned with the desktop-inspired interaction model.
Grid-based layout focused on visual clarity
Large previews for immersive viewing
Smooth transitions between gallery items
Optimized for storytelling rather than static browsing
The gallery acts as a visual layer of the portfolio, allowing work to be explored without breaking the overall experience.
✦ “Alter Ego” — Immersive Concept Page
A dedicated experience-driven page that explores contrast, identity, and mood through motion and minimal UI.
Key Highlights
Cinematic, full-screen layout
Motion-led storytelling with minimal distractions
Dark, atmospheric visuals to create emotional depth
