Cover image for Modus is a contemporary urban
Modus is a contemporary urban boutique hotel built around architectural clarity, controlled warmth, and quiet confidence. The identity avoids decorative luxury and instead focuses on structure, proportion, and atmosphere. Inspired by the building’s curved facade, warm wood tones, and evening light, the visual system balances deep greens, muted brass accents, and restrained serif typography. The language of the brand reflects the hotel itself. Urban yet intimate. Modern yet timeless. Every element supports a cohesive experience where design is intentional and hospitality feels personal rather than performative. Modus positions itself not as spectacle, but as presence. Luxury here is measured in precision, materiality, and atmosphere. Credits : Animation: @Jitter Graphic Design: @Figma

Pelagos is a premium underwater fine dining concept built around depth, silence, and controlled luxury. The identity avoids literal marine symbolism and instead focuses on architectural calm, restrained typography, and a refined color system inspired by deep water tones and warm interior light. The visual language reflects the restaurant’s atmosphere-immersive, quiet, and precise. From the serif typography to the muted mineral palette, every element supports the idea that dining here is not transactional, but experiential. Pelagos positions itself as a destination, not just a restaurant. Depth is not decoration- it is a state.

Music Glass-Full Brand & E-commerce Development Music Glass is my own business. As the founder, I created the full brand system: logo, visual identity, packaging, product design, Shopify website design and development, marketing creatives, paid ads, and social media content. I structured the brand to stay consistent across every touchpoint — website, product pages, packaging, and campaigns. I personally designed and built the Shopify store, optimized user flow for conversions, and ensured the visual system works seamlessly on desktop and mobile. I also directed product photoshoots and created all visual assets. This project shows my ability to think as both designer and founder — building design systems that are not just aesthetic, but scalable and revenue-driven. Live project: https://music-glass.com/en

The identity is built on typographic precision, structured layouts, and a restrained monochrome palette to communicate discipline, governance, and long-term capital strategy. A minimal yet authoritative system applied across stationery, investor materials, and digital touchpoints.

Made this in under 2 minutes. No video editing experience. Zero. Huge thanks to Jitter for making it insanely simple to turn static brand work into something dynamic and alive. If a founder who spends most of his time building products, brands and systems can do this that fast, anyone can. Creative tools are changing the game.
