I build websites the way some people write.
New to Contra
Thomas is ready for their next project!
I designed and built nualt.fr (http://nualt.fr), the website of my product engineering micro-studio, from identity to code.
The visual system rests on two colours, Klein blue and ivory, set in Yellix, Inter and Geist Pixel. Its recurring motif is the pixel block: pieces stack in the hero, rows of blocks close every page, and the 404 is a playable Tetris. Titles enter with a rolling-letter animation, kept light on mobile with plain CSS.
The site is bilingual (French and English). It includes case studies, stack decision trees for each offer, an open-source catalogue and a blog where each category has its own colour and isometric illustration.
Built with Next.js 16, React 19, Payload CMS, PostgreSQL (Neon), Tailwind CSS, GSAP and Vercel.

There's a specific aesthetic that belongs to the best American tech companies. Sharp grids, dark backgrounds, typography that means business. I wanted that energy for The Performer, but rooted in a European context, with European standards. A data marketing agency that turns raw numbers into acquisition, CRM and activation strategies. Serious work that deserved a serious stage. I designed a dark, grid-based interface that feels inevitable. The kind of website where you land and immediately understand that the people behind it know exactly what they're doing.

I hadn't been on holiday in three years. At some point my brain just decided to go anyway. Les Baux de Paris is a Parisian restaurant that travels. Flavours somewhere between Greece and Provence, wine and cocktails, music on weekends. The kind of place that makes you feel slightly elsewhere. I made them a website for the same reason. Cream and blue, a hand-drawn Santorini illustration, a typeface that curves like a road along the coast. It was unsolicited. It was also, honestly, for me.

Les Fuseaux Asseventois is a small association in northern France that has been gathering every week for over 15 years to practice bobbin lace and Hardanger embroidery. No budget, no marketing, just people who care deeply about something delicate and almost forgotten. I built their website pro bono. Not because it made sense on paper, but because this kind of quiet dedication deserves a place on the internet that matches it. Fully responsive, with a photo gallery, workshop info, FAQ and membership page. Designed from Paris for where I was born.
