Meet Pip, the little mouse behind Pip’s Pantry. Surrounded by whimsical gardens and cozy corners, Pip celebrates the simple beauty of cottagecore living. Pip’s mission is to inspire people to slow down and embrace the little everyday moments. Legend has it you can only find Pip in homes where people have entered their cozy living era. See the full project here https://www.recraft.ai/project/de9d685c-5106-4446-95cb-83e91dd183a1 Pip came to life through dozens of iterations in Recraft, blending vintage hand-painted illustration style with a stylized 3D interpretation of how the mythical character might appear in the real world. The idea began when I grew tired of plain pantry labels in our kitchen and wanted to bring a little more whimsy to everyday moments like cooking. Videos and images: Recraft.ai Music: Pixabay (CC0)

Zuzze recently turned 2, and I finally got around to putting together a showreel featuring some of the work from 2025. Sound ON 🎵 A few highlights from the past year: • Over 90% of clients came back for additional work within a year, proving that clients value a strategic partner who thinks like a builder, not just an executor. • Adopted AI-native development by combining the latest AI tools with traditional design and engineering, earning the “Best Prompt” award at the first @Figma Make-athon by @Contra HQ, selected from more than 10,000 submissions. • Earned Spline Expert certification and won the top prize at the @Spline Hackathon by @Contra HQ with an interactive 3D storytelling experience. • Became a Frontend Guild Leader at a.team (http://a.team), an elite AI talent network representing the top 1% of AI-native product builders worldwide. Thanks for everyone who has been part of the journey so far and excited for what’s next! 🫶

Here’s to the brave freelancers and creators pushing through deadlines, chaos, and creativity and somehow still making magic. ✨ Ending this year with an empowering “Tiny Boss Anthem”, an AI-powered & 3D animated music video + lip-sync experiment built in under 24 hours using @FLORA , @Suno , and @Descript as part of @Contra #HolidayChallenge. It’s incredible to see how far creative technology has taken us in just one year. Pixar, watch out… I’m just warming up 😄
