DESCRIPTION
This collection showcases my self-initiated experiments that bridge design and development. Over the past two years, I’ve explored how creative coding and 3D interaction can extend design thinking beyond static visuals turning abstract ideas into interactive, living systems.
These projects grew from a curiosity for how tools like React, Three.js, and emerging AI can reshape how designers build. Learning to code in 2024 accelerated this shift — it allowed me to design not just what’s seen, but how it behaves.
1.PERSONAL WEBSITE
Live Version «
This is my first full-stack project, designed and developed end-to-end to represent who I am as both a designer and developer.
The interface draws inspiration from Apple’s Finder, reimagined as a digital workspace that organizes my projects like living files — each one interactive, accessible, and expressive of my creative process.
2.HUMANHUE
Live Version «
HumanHue is an innovative AR-READY project that uses the transformation of a basic shape as a powerful metaphor for personal growth and self-discovery. It encourages users to step out of their comfort zones and embrace life's challenges, illustrating that continuous effort can lead to unexpected and remarkable outcomes.
3.MBTI-GAMER
Live Version «
Inspired by 16 personality types, I created a simple but visually stunning gamer type test.
4.GOOGLE X BRAINSTATION - GEMINI
Live Version «
A 24-hour design sprint tackling the prompt: “How might we educate users about new AI features while maintaining trust?”
Our team reimagined how Google could introduce Gemini within its existing ecosystem, framing AI not as a replacement, but as a collaborative assistant.
We designed contextual entry points and micro-education prompts that help users understand capabilities through use, rather than explanation, balancing transparency and familiarity within everyday Google workflows.
