Mixbox

Mixbox

Mixbox is a fictional cocktail boxes delivery service. The goal was to create a brand identity and an app design from scratch. I used an Octopus as the mascot using the 8 arms to represent the expertise of the mixologists that create the unique recipes for each cocktails behind the scenes.

Digiphy

Digiphy

Digiphy is a VR powered seating buck made for automotive designers and engineers. As a part of my bachelor thesis at Devine KASK we worked on an interactive experience. The goal was to explain and clearly give a feel of how Digiphy works for design studios.

Various technologies (R3F, Drei, Lenis, GSPA) were used to create this experience. The biggest challenge was making it fit for mobile, although the experience is thought for desktop first, we wanted to provide a responsive design.

Every layer was first drawn in photoshop with a graphic tablet using watercolor brushes before being brought inside after effects where the 2D layers were placed inside a 3D space to allow smooth camera movements.

Decathlon

Decathlon

3D hero created for Decathlon’s hiking page as a motion design exercise. Built in Blender, the scene was rendered in individual passes to allow maximum flexibility during compositing in After Effects.

Every element on the scene except for the trees was 3D modeled and textured by myself in Blender. The hero section was also adapted on mobile to spotlight a single hero product, keeping the composition focused.
