thin-film interference · no pigment
structure interfering with light
designer & systems engineer
Every shimmer is structure interfering with light.
A raven’s feather holds no pigment. The color is in how the thing is made. I work the same way — the surface stays honest about the structure beneath it.
on partnership
Two paths, drawn separately — meeting, then continuing as one.
Stakeholder, designer, engineer — I’ve flown each line. The value isn’t in any single path. It’s the point where they converge, and the direction they hold after.
structure over pigment — color from how it’s made
inset + hairline · never drop-shadow theater
html + css · verified in-browser, no framework
how I work
Restraint is the material. Every accent earns its place.
Color from how it’s made
Iridescence at the edge, the focus, the one word — never the flood. The gradient runs at 120° and stays quiet until it’s asked to move.
Nothing floats
Elevation comes from inset and hairline, not drop-shadow theater. Panels sit in the plane. The seam catches the light; the box does not glow.
Built, then verified
Written in CSS and HTML — no framework, no drag-and-drop. The motion is critically-damped: precise and alive, never a bounce, never a laser show.
