Cover image for Meet my first mascot! 🪿
I've

Meet my first mascot! 🪿 I've designed plenty of logos and brand identities over the years, but this was my very first time creating a mascot from scratch. The goal was to make it playful, memorable, and full of personality while still feeling like a natural part of the brand. Every little detail – from the backwards cap to the skateboard and takeaway bag—was added to tell a story and make the character instantly recognizable. What I enjoyed most about this project was realizing how much personality a simple illustration can bring to a brand. A mascot isn't just a cute character – it becomes something people remember, recognize, and connect with. Definitely hoping this won't be my last mascot project. 🛹

Cover image for BRAYD: The Braided Focus Flame

BRAYD: The Braided Focus Flame 🔥 BRAYD is an original mascot created for BURN THE TASK, a fictional productivity ritual brand built around focus, completion, and quiet discipline. Rather than designing a cute candle character, I built a full mascot system around one clear visual behavior: focused time burns into completion. BRAYD is a braided wick core inside a faceted wax body. As a task progresses, the wick burns down, the wax form changes through clear stages, and the final braided strand becomes a checkmark. The mascot was designed to stay recognizable across every touchpoint, from the custom wordmark and hero poster to the sticker system, focus ritual packaging, burn sequence, and consistency board. Every asset uses the same visual DNA: the same braided wick, the same faceted wax body, the same angular flame, and the same final checkmark. This project explores how a single mascot can become the face of a fictional productivity world by turning an abstract idea, focus, into a visual ritual. Character Brief Name: BRAYD Role: The Braided Focus Flame Personality: quiet, intense, disciplined, stubborn, focused, and encouraging without being soft. BRAYD does not rush you and does not distract you. He simply burns with you until the task is done. His braided wick represents focused effort, his faceted wax body represents pressure and progress, and his final checkmark represents completion earned through attention. Recraft Project Explore the full project here: https://www.recraft.ai/project/a75515d8-3533-42f4-9a93-9815d2f3f7e3 Applications Included The BRAYD system includes a custom name logo, hero poster, sticker pack, focus ritual packaging, burn to checkmark sequence, and a final consistency board showing the mascot across multiple moments and touchpoints. Proof of Consistency Same wick. Same facets. Same flame. Same final checkmark. #RecraftAI #CharacterDesign #MascotDesign #BrandIdentity #CreativeAI #Illustration #DesignChallenge #BrandDesign #ConceptArt #MotionDesign #GraphicDesign #MascotSystem #ProductivityDesign #DigitalArt

Cover image for A self-initiated style exploration built

A self-initiated style exploration built around one question: how far can you push pink before it pushes back? The concept fuses modern elegance with a daring visual twist — striking typography, fluid animations, and a vibrant color palette that radiates confidence without apology. Every element was designed to feel cohesive yet surprising, blending sleek minimalism with unexpected details that reward a second look. Not a brand for a specific client — a study in what bold, fearless identity design can look like when there are no constraints.

Cover image for some late work i've been

some late work i've been doing with felt👇 quick thought i can't shake: most ai interactions make you translate. you feel something, turn it into words, the ai answers in words, you turn that back into feeling. two translations for something that was never meant to be spoken in the first place. so with felt i'm trying something different: an interface that just reads what you're feeling and talks back the same way, through touch. no typing, no talking, no middleman. still early, still prototyping, having way too much fun building this one🤘

Cover image for Cinematic Portfolio Design for Film Studio: A Visual Masterp...

A cinematic portfolio concept for a film and motion studio, designed to feel more like an editorial reel than a standard agency website. The site uses a dark visual system, oversized typography, smooth scrolling, restrained motion, and a full-screen project index to make the work feel premium before the user reads a word. The focus was on pacing, atmosphere and confidence: fewer sections, stronger visuals, cleaner movement. Built as a responsive Next.js prototype with Framer Motion and Lenis-style smooth scrolling, including hero, selected work, about and contact sections.

Cover image for PUFFHS: Artisanal Pastry Landing Page

PUFFHS: Artisanal Pastry Landing Page Concept Welcome to PUFFHS, a conceptual landing page designed for a premium artisanal bakery specializing in gourmet cream puffs. This project reimagines how we browse and buy high-end digital food products. Most food e-commerce platforms and delivery apps rely on static, uninspiring grid layouts that fail to capture the true tactile appeal of the product. The challenge was to break away from standard UI patterns and create a digital shopping experience that is as mouth-watering and engaging as the pastries themselves, all while keeping complex dietary information accessible To solve this, I experimented with a highly interactive, motion-driven approach. The core UX innovation is the "Reveal the Puff" mechanic. Instead of forcing users to read long paragraphs about the ingredients, I designed a seamless micro-interaction that allows them to virtually "slice" the dessert with a single click, instantly revealing the rich filling and texture.

Cover image for Midnight Accord is an interactive

Midnight Accord is an interactive dark-romance dossier experience built in Omma by Spline. The concept began as a secret society archive where players are invited into a private chamber and given access to classified files. From there, they can explore six character dossiers, initiate secure lines, and move through visual-novel inspired dialogue choices. I wanted the experience to feel like entering a forbidden archive: elegant, mysterious, cinematic, and a little dangerous. The visual style blends matte gothic luxury, antique gold UI, dark romantic atmosphere, dossier-style navigation, atmospheric audio, and character-focused storytelling. I imagined Midnight Accord as the opening prototype for an otome/visual novel experience where each character route could expand into deeper conversations, secrets, relationship choices, and long-term mystery. This project was built during the challenge window in Omma Canvas, using interactive page routing, custom layouts, hover effects, mobile-friendly pages, and Omma Studio-generated assets/audio. I focused on making it feel like more than a static gallery. Every page connects into a playable flow, from the landing page to the invitation, chamber, intelligence files, secure lines, dialogue choices, and connection lost screens.

Cover image for SPROUT — Grow Good Things

SPROUT — Grow Good Things 🌱 SPROUT is an original mascot created for a fictional eco-lifestyle brand that encourages people to make small everyday actions count—planting, recycling, protecting nature, and spreading kindness. Rather than designing just a cute character, I built an entire visual identity system around Sprout, ensuring the mascot stays instantly recognizable across every touchpoint. From the custom wordmark and color palette to merchandise, packaging, stickers, app icon, environmental storytelling, and animation, every asset was created to feel like part of one cohesive world. The floating water spirit represents life, growth, and hope, while Sprout's glowing leaf symbolizes that even the smallest act can create lasting change. This project explores how a single mascot can become the face of an entire fictional brand through consistent design, storytelling, and scalable applications. 🌱 Character Brief Name: SPROUT Role: Guardian of Growth Personality: Curious, optimistic, adventurous, compassionate, playful, and endlessly encouraging. Sprout believes every tiny action matters. Whether planting a seed, helping nature, or inspiring someone else, Sprout reminds us that big change always starts small.

This is my

Hi everyone! 👋 This is my first post here, so I thought I'd share something I've been really excited to work on. I recently designed the AI Project Setup experience for ThinkEasy from scratch. The goal was to make creating research projects feel simple and intuitive, while using AI to guide users instead of overwhelming them. It was a fun challenge to figure out how to balance flexibility with clarity, and I'm really happy with how it came together. I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts or feedback! https://www.behance.net/gallery/247586847/ThinkEasy-AI-Project-Setup #UXDesign #ProductDesign #AI #CaseStudy #UserExperience

Cover image for Every day I walk past

Every day I walk past the same public swimming pool. On the wall is an old mural: a sun-faded graphic with flat shapes and that unmistakable 1970s leisure centre vibe. I can't help but keep looking at it. The graphics are simple, but charming. (You can see it in the middle of the video.) Then I asked myself, “What if I try to create a modern-era mascot for it?” Meet EVA EVA is the swimming pool's guardian and cheerleader. She cares about your safety, your wellbeing, your skin, and yes — even how you look once you're back on dry land. Blue swim cap. A voluminous petal-cloak. 70s-glam eyeshadow. Slightly judgy. Mostly helpful. Exactly the energy a municipal pool deserves. This is my entry for the Contra × Recraft competition. Project link: https://www.recraft.ai/project/b30fd297-8321-4db2-a417-f0a4dc71da1c

MEET MRS. PRIOR — my entry to the Recraft Challenge. https://www.recraft.ai/project/412a40c4-1f73-46f2-af9c-f2408e1e519e Mrs. Prior is the mascot of the Open Door Society — an organisation that helps women and anyone facing systemic barriers access opportunities, resources, and spaces that have been closed to them. We identify the obstacles, we find the way in, and we hold the door open for everyone who follows. She doesn't protest. She doesn't explain. She arrives, she assesses, and she begins. Her tool is a single hairpin. Her method is whatever works. Would love to hear what you think, and good luck to everyone else in the challenge ♥️
