Завдання: Створити унікального персонажа-маскота (Лисеня) та розробити фірмовий стикерпак із 8–12 емоцій для Discord-сервера. Стикери мають бути універсальними: підходити як для цифрового спілкування в чатах, так і для якісного фізичного друку (мерч, стікерпаки).
Специфікація проєкту:
Тематика: Настільні рольові ігри (насамперед Dungeons & Dragons), творчість, затишна атмосфера середньовічної таверни.
Ключовий елемент: Обов'язкова наявність фірмового жетона на шиї персонажа із зображенням дерев'яної пивної кружки.
… Технічні вимоги: Висока роздільна здатність, чіткі контури (Line art), колірний профіль під друк, біла обводка для зручності вирізання плотером.
Етапи роботи
1. Пошук стилю та лайнінг (Line Art)
На основі побажань замовника (файл watermarked_img_10555428632096035858.png) було розроблено загальну анатомію та характер Лисеняти. Воно вийшло харизматичним, живим та дружнім. На цьому етапі було затверджено 7 базових сюжетних ліній, що відображають інтереси спільноти:
Лис-майстер підземель (DM) з гральним кубиком d20 та сувоєм.
Лис-бармен, що наливає напої за барною стійкою таверни.
Лис-стратег, який вивчає тактичну карту та мініатюри.
Головний концепт-арт персонажа у повний зріст із d20 у фірмовому шкіряному жилеті.
Лис-художник із палітрою (символ творчого напрямку спільноти).

Development of a packaging line for dried fruits and nuts

Packaging and label design

Project Overview
Client: Organic food brand "NATURA" (conditional or real name).
Task: Develop the design of a line of six-seam bags for dried fruits and nuts, consisting of 9 unique SKUs.
Main Concept: Create a cohesive product series where each packaging is visually connected to others through a common composition, font pairs, and basic graphics, while also being individual due to personalized color coding and food zone.
… What Has Been Done (Work Stages)
Market Analysis and Shelf Audit: Competitors in the premium and mid-segments of healthy snacks were researched. A trend towards eco-friendliness, ingredient purity, and visual transparency (demonstration of the actual product) was identified.
Development of a Unified Visual Architecture: A rigid modular packaging grid was created. Sustainable elements for the entire line were defined: placement of the brand logo, a block with the Unique Selling Proposition (USP), icons of product benefits ("Sugar-free", "Gluten-free", "100% Natural"), and a lower ornamental block.
Color Coding (SKU Differentiation): A unique complementary palette associated with each specific product was selected for each of the 9 items:
Mango — juicy orange-yellow
Pineapple — bright yellow
Banana — mustard-gold
Apple — deep red-green
Dried Apricot — warm apricot
Goji Berries — coral-red
Fig — rich purple
Almond — soft nutty beige
Walnut — deep grassy green
Food Styling and Illustrations: Realistic food illustrations of fruits and nuts in cross-section were developed for each item, adding dynamism and appetizing appeal.
Integration of a Transparent Window: An important element of the architecture was a transparent window at the bottom of the bag, allowing the customer to assess the quality, texture, and caliber of the dried fruits or nuts before purchase.
Adaptation to Shape (Six-Seam Bag): The design was created considering the specifics of forming a six-seam bag (stabilo bag). The side edges are used for technical information, ingredients, and additional branding elements, making the packaging informative from any angle of view on the shelf.
Result
A modern, commercially attractive, and systematic line of packaging has been created, which effectively works as a single brand block on the supermarket shelf. The design clearly communicates the idea of naturalness, high quality, and facilitates consumer navigation between flavors within the series.

Packaging for a premium hair straightener

Packaging and label design

Role: Graphic / Packaging Designer
Category: Beauty & Personal Care Packaging, Product Design
Concept: Luxury Minimal
1. Project Overview & Challenge
… Task: Develop a comprehensive packaging design (all 6 sides of the box) for the professional hair straightener of the brand AKS. The product is aimed at two markets — Ukraine and Kazakhstan, so the packaging needs to be bilingual (UA/KZ) but without visual overload.
Main challenges:
Maintain a premium look of "more expensive than its price" for the device, using the principles of a strict modular grid.
Harmoniously integrate technical and legal information in two languages on a limited space.
Create a clear visual hierarchy where each side of the box serves its marketing function.
2. Design Approach
The concept "Luxury Minimal" was chosen for implementation (inspired by the aesthetics of premium beauty magazines and brands like Dyson or ghd):
Color palette: Deep matte graphite as the main background, emphasizing the technology and premium quality of the device. Accents and fonts are executed in thin lines with letter spacing.
Printing effects (planned for print):
AKS logo on the front and top panels — blind embossing or selective glossy UV coating for texture play.
Thin foiling of elements.
3. Packaging Anatomy (Side Breakdown)
The project demonstrates detailed work on each edge of the box for maximum customer interaction:
Front side (Cover): Visual "hook". Minimum text, focus on a realistic render of the device, logo, and concise bilingual USP ("Perfect Smoothness and Shine").
Back side (Technical & Informational): Divided into logical blocks. At the top — an emotional description of benefits, below — minimalist icons of key features (150–230°C, ceramic/tourmaline, quick heating in 30 sec). At the bottom — a neat technical footer with certifications (EAC, CE) and a barcode.
Side 1 (Emotional): Contains a usage guide ("from soft waves to mirror shine") and a clear list of contents in the form of pictograms.
Side 2 (Technical): Macro photographs and highlights of the device details: elongated plates, 360° rotating cord, and LED display. A delicate visual element is added — a photo of styled hair.
Top and Bottom sides (Caps): Top — clean branding "Professional Hair Care". The bottom edge is fully dedicated to legal information of importers, service center contacts, and terms of the 12-month warranty.
4. Results & Impact
A clean, structured, and commercially attractive packaging design has been created that:
Clearly stands out on the store shelf due to the deep dark color and absence of chaotic textual "noise".
Fully complies with legal requirements for product labeling in Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
Forms the image of a reliable professional device even before the box is opened.
Tools used:
Adobe Photoshop (Retouching and Layout)
Adobe Illustrator (Vector Graphics, Icons, Layout of Technical Blocks)
Cinema 4D / KeyShot (3D Visualization of the Box and Renders of the Device)

Design system for the educational project "Language Speakers"

Interface Design (UI/UX)

Project Task
The course materials (workbooks, guides, test tasks) had unique content but looked visually chaotic and were created manually by instructors "on the knee."
Main Task: Develop a conceptual visual style and create a flexible, automated template system in Figma for educational PDF notes (based on the materials "TYPES OF SIMPLE SENTENCES .docx", "EDITING REQUIRED.pdf" and "ALL ABOUT NUMERATORS.pdf") and social media (Instagram, Telegram).
Main Technical Requirement: The system must be intuitive and convenient so that clients can independently change texts in the templates without the help of a designer, and the blocks automatically adjust to the volume of information.
… Visual Concept: "Expert Punk / Zoomer Minimalism"
To combine the incompatible — academic rules and harsh irony, the Acid Grunge / Modern Retro style with elements of digital minimalism was chosen.
Color Palette: The sterile white background was replaced with a comfortable off-white and light gray shades for prolonged reading from screens. Deep graphite was used as the base (expertise), and for main accents and emotional highlights — branded neon pink ("I’m bursting for your heart") and acid green.
Typography: A contrasting pair of fonts. An edgy, slightly rough sans-serif grotesque for hype headlines ("MADNESS", "LOSER'S RULE", "CRAZY CLIP") and a maximally clean, geometric font with high readability for large arrays of rules, tests, and tables.
Graphic Elements: Textures of crumpled paper, speech bubbles for meme integration, arrows, and outlines that imitate hand-drawn marker sketches. Integration of illustrated avatars of Yegor and Valeria as brand mascots.
Technical Implementation in Figma (Case Foundation)
Instead of a set of static images, the client received a full-fledged design system:
Auto Layout 5.0 (Smart Blocks): All tables, rule cards, and test options are set up so that when text is added or removed, the frames, margins, and neighboring blocks automatically adapt. The client does not need to move anything manually.
Figma Components: Basic master components were created for labels, answer options in tests, and decorative elements. Changing the style in one place instantly updates all course notes.
Color & Text Styles: All colors and fonts are fixed in the system, eliminating the appearance of random shades in future materials.
Package Composition of Developed Templates
Educational Materials (A4 format for PDF guides and print):
Cover of the theoretical block.
Template for the information page (theoretical rule + example).
Template for comparative table (for example, for declension of numerals from 200 to 900).
Template for interactive matching test (classic format of NMT).
Templates for Social Media (Instagram / Telegram):
Carousel template for card posts (Hook/Meme → Essence of the rule → Call to action).
Advertising layouts for intensives, story announcements ("hurry to book a spot") and labels for student feedback.
Project Result
The "Language Speakers" project received a visually expensive, recognizable, and unique conceptual style that completely distinguishes them from competitors in the online education market. Chaotic drafts transformed into a professional system of notes that students "want to flip through." At the same time, instructors completely resolved the design issue — they independently and quickly assemble new manuals in Figma, focusing solely on content and methodology.
You can copy this framework and try to assemble your first screen in Figma to test the fonts and palette.

Creation of vector patterns and adaptation of products

Packaging and label design

1. Technical audit of geometry (Vector purity) Defects often arise due to micro defects in the vector file itself, which are read by the laser, plotter, or die. Elimination of duplicated contours: Overlapping paths cause the laser or plotter to pass over the same spot twice. This leads to charring (cardboard), burn-throughs (leather/fabric), or material tearing. Control of contour closure: All contours responsible for through-cutting must be strictly closed (Join paths). Optimization of anchor points: Too dense placement of points on arcs causes "stuttering" of the CNC machine head, creating jagged edges on the cut. Radii must be described with the minimum possible number of points. 2. Designing compensation gaps (Tolerances and fits) Scaling requires consideration of material thickness ($s$), which can vary by $ ext{±}10 ext{ ext{%}}$ in series batches. Compensation for thickness at bends: For dense cardboard or corrugated cardboard, the inner bend radius cannot be zero. If compensation ($1.5 imes s$ or $2 imes s$ depending on density) is not accounted for, the material will crack along the score lines, or the product will "bulge" when assembled. Slot connections: The width of the slot must strictly correspond to the actual (not nominal) thickness of the material, taking into account the coating (lamination, UV varnish, paint). For mass production, slots are made with a conical approach (guides) to facilitate automatic or manual assembly. 3. Adaptation for cutting lines, scoring, and perforation Incorrect load distribution on the material is the main cause of defects during bending. Layer division: Clear color coding and layers: Red (Solid) — through-cutting (Cut). Green (Dashed) — scoring/bend (Crease). Blue — perforation or engraving. Rounding radii at inner corners: Straight inner corners (90°) in areas of stress concentration provoke material tearing during operation or assembly. Adding micro-roundings (radius from 0.5–1 mm) drastically reduces this risk. 4. Optimization of layout (Nest layout) for cutting Reducing waste and cost through proper placement of patterns on the sheet/roll. Considering the direction of fibers (for cardboard/paper): The lines of main folds of the packaging should run along the fibers of the material. If the fold is made across the fibers, the cardboard will crack, creating torn edges. Technological bridges (Bridges / Micro-locks): When cutting small parts on high-speed plotters, the product may fall out and jam the carriage. Micro-locks (bridges 0.4–0.8 mm thick) are added to the contour, which hold the part in the sheet until the cycle is fully completed. Distance between parts: The minimum distance between the contours of adjacent products must be at least $2 imes s$ (two material thicknesses) to avoid matrix deformation or overheating of the cutting zone. Checklist for the readiness of patterns for production: [ ] The direction of the material fibers relative to the fold lines has been checked. [ ] The thickness of the material + the thickness of the adhesive layer/lamination has been taken into account. [ ] All cutting contours are closed, duplicates of lines have been removed. [ ] Text and small elements have been converted to curves (Create Outlines).

Design and visualization of a case for a collectible set

3D Modeling

1. Conceptual Design and Technical Specification
Before moving on to the design documentation, the basic parameters of the product are fixed:
Structural scheme: Book-type box (with a magnetic clasp), case with a hinged lid on hinges, or two-component box "lid-bottom."
Interaction scenario: Sequence of accessory removal, angle of lid opening (ideally $90^ ext{°}$ or $120^ ext{°}$ with limiters), presence of hidden compartments (double bottom).
… 2. Construction and Materials (Specification)
High density and premium tactile feedback are ensured by the correct selection of material layers.
3. Stages of Development of Design Documentation (DD)
To transfer the product to production (for milling, laser cutting, and laminating), a package of drawings in vector format (DXF/DWG/PDF) is prepared:
A. Unfolding of the frame (Drawing of stamp details)
Solid lines — cutting contour; dashed lines — creasing lines (bending).
Calculation of material thickness compensation: the outer cut of artificial leather must take into account the thickness of the cardboard ($T$) and allowances for folding (15–20 mm).
B. Design of the insert (Internal filling)
Vector contours: Creation of precise 2D cutouts for each accessory based on their 3D scans or accurate measurements.
Ergonomic grooves: Adding cutouts for fingers (grips) for easy removal of small elements.
C. Assembly Drawing
Step-by-step scheme of gluing and laminating.
Indication of milling locations for hidden magnets and hinges.
4. Concept Visualization
To approve the design and control the texture joints, a 3D visualization is created:
Modeling (CAD): Creating an accurate copy in SolidWorks/Rhino (to check the kinematics of opening and collisions).
Rendering (KeyShot/Blender): Adjusting shaders of artificial leather (parameters of matte finish, depth of embossing Bump Maps, stitching with thread) and internal textiles.
Animation: Creating a 5-second video of unfolding/opening the box to demonstrate functionality.

Concept art and storyboard for the graphic novel "Eyes in the Sky"

Illustrations & Drawings

About the project
Development of the visual style and storyboard for a military-patriotic comic dedicated to the work of drone operators. The main task is to convey the tense atmosphere of modern high-tech warfare, combining the realism of military everyday life with the dynamics of a graphic novel.
Role: Artist-illustrator, concept artist.
Stylistics: Modern European graphic novel, clear line art with dramatic digital coloring.
… Tools: Adobe Photoshop / Procreate.

Stages of work and artistic solutions
1. Atmosphere and color scheme (Frame 1)
Task: Create a strong expository frame that immerses the reader in the atmosphere without lengthy textual introductions.
Visual solution: A panoramic landscape of the front line at dawn. The central element is the silhouette of a battered ancient oak tree as a symbol of resilience and the scars of war.
Color work: A contrasting palette is used — cold, anxious blue-gray shades of the sky and trenches are contrasted with the hot flashes of orange on the horizon (symbolizing the proximity of danger and the first rays of sunlight).
2. Framing and dynamics (Frames 2–4)
Intimacy vs. scale: Transition from a vast landscape to the confined space of a bunker (Frame 2) to emphasize the operator's focus and the isolation of his work.
Emphasis on details: Use of a close-up (Frame 3) with tactile detail — a hand on the joystick of the controller. This creates a sense of presence and concentrates the tension before the action.
Climax of the scene: An action frame (Frame 4) with dynamic blur of the drone's blades, symbolizing a rapid exit into the working space.

Result
A cohesive visual concept for the first page of the comic has been created, demonstrating the ability to work with composition, light and shadow, text blocks (bubbles), and maintain the tempo of the narrative. The project is ready for further scaling and detailing.

Development of a commemorative tattoo in honor of the birth of the firstborn

Artwork

Category: Individual Sketch / Graphics / Calligraphy
Location: Left side of the chest (heart area)
Main symbol: Son's name — Oscar
The birth of a child is one of the most intimate and significant events in life. When a client approached me with a request to create a tattoo in honor of his firstborn, I understood that it had to be not just an aesthetic drawing, but a deeply personal symbol that would harmoniously fit into the anatomy of the body.
…
1. Task and anatomical context
The client requested to place the tattoo on the left side of the chest. This is a classic area "closer to the heart," which requires special attention to the dynamics of the body:
The drawing should follow the natural lines of the pectoral muscle.
When the arm and shoulder move, the sketch should not deform or appear distorted.
It was necessary to integrate the name Oscar and balance it with other elements (date or symbols).

2. Conceptual stage: Three vectors of development
To help the client determine the mood of the future tattoo, I developed and proposed three fundamentally different concepts.
Concept 1: Calligraphy and geometry (Strict masculine style)
Idea: A combination of strength and precision.
Details: The central element is the name "Oscar," executed in an expressive Gothic style or Chicano style. The composition is complemented by thin circles (symbol of infinity and the cyclicity of life) and a pulse line (ECG), emphasizing the theme of birth.
Anatomy: Geometric circles delicately wrap around the contour of the chest, creating a visual framework for the font.
Concept 2: Minimalism and line graphics (Emotional connection)
Idea: Maximum tenderness through the conciseness of lines (Line-art).
Details: A thin outline image of a large parental hand holding the tiny hand of a newborn baby. The child's name is integrated directly into one of the lines of the sketch, creating a single inseparable whole.
Anatomy: The drawing focuses closer to the center of the chest, creating a soft yet strong visual point.
Concept 3: Scandinavian allegory (Historical subtext)
Idea: Armor and protection. The name Oscar has ancient Germanic origins and translates as "spear of the god."
Details: A symbolic heraldic shield adorned with delicate plant elements or wood texture. The name is inscribed inside the shield, symbolizing parental protection and the strength passed on to the son.
Stylistics: Graphics using soft shadows (Dotwork / Black & Grey).

3. Working on visualization
To demonstrate the ideas, I prepared visual renders on a male body. This allowed the client to assess the scale, thickness of lines, and contrast of the future work even before the needle touches the skin.

Note: The dates in the visualizations were used as placeholders to demonstrate compositional balance and will be replaced with the actual birth date of the boy during the final session.

4. Conclusion
This project is a great example of how an individual approach and conceptual preparation help the client make an informed choice. We do not just copy pictures from the internet, but create a unique story adapted to a specific body and life stage.

Redesign of the packaging for "Golden Grain" corn sticks

Packaging and label design

Category: FMCG, Packaging Design, Commercial Illustration, Mascot Design. Task: Complete redesign of the corn stick line (2 flavors: "Milk" and "Baked Milk") with full artistic development of mascots from scratch.

Problem and Analysis
The previous packaging design is morally stuck in the 2000s. A large amount of visual noise (heavy 3D fonts, chaotic realistic splashes of milk, outdated character anatomy) hindered the product from competing on the shelf with modern brands. The original vector files of the mascots were not preserved, so all graphics had to be created from a clean slate.
…
My Goals:
Clear the visual chaos: Make the packaging modern, "clean," and trendy.
Evolve the mascots: Create new vector characters (Cow and Cat) from scratch, maintaining their recognizability for loyal customers.
Optimize for printing: Develop the design considering the technical limitations of flexographic printing on flexible film (flow-pack).

Implementation Stages
1. Development of Brand Characters (from scratch)
I completely rethought the images of the Cow and Cat. Instead of the outdated clipart style, I redrew them in modern commercial 2D:
Anatomy and Emotions: The characters received softer, more plastic lines, large lively eyes, and open, friendly smiles, which better appeal to the child and family audience.

Stylistics: I simplified shadows and outlines, making the illustrations clean, which facilitates perception and ensures perfect clarity when printed.
2. Working with Composition and Typography
Font Group: I abandoned pseudo-3D letters with black outlines. Instead, I developed unique, playful, yet flat lettering that is easy to read from a distance.

Food Zone: I removed small chaotic splashes. The bottom part of the packaging is now separated by a smooth, stylized milk wave that harmoniously frames the window with the product (or its realistic image) and structures the information about weight and ingredients.

Color Coding: I preserved the brand colors of the line (rich blue for classic and soft orange for baked milk), but cleaned them from "dirty" gradients.
3. Technical Preparation (Pre-press)
Since the packaging is printed using flexography on flexible film, I adapted the layouts to the strict technical requirements of production:
I divided the layouts by layers for proper ink overlay.
I adjusted the trapping and overprint settings to avoid line shifts during printing.
I converted key elements to spot colors (Pantone) to achieve maximum brightness and color stability in the print run.

Result
The "Golden Grain" brand received a radical update without losing its identity. The packaging looks more premium, neater, and stands out among competitors on the supermarket shelf. The mascots have become modern brand heroes, ready for use not only on packaging but also in digital marketing and animation.

Redesign of packaging for dry breakfasts "Mr. Croco"

Packaging and label design

Task: A large-scale redesign and repositioning of the ready-made breakfast brand. It was necessary to transition the product from a purely children's category to a teenage segmentation (12–16 years), refresh the mascot, develop packaging construction from scratch, and prepare a line of two SKUs for print.

Solution:

… Strategic transformation of the mascot: Instead of an infantile character, a new image of Mr. Croco was created — a bold, energetic hero who shares the interests of modern teenagers. Three conceptual directions were developed for diversifying the line: extreme (motor culture/naked bike), urbanism (street art and graffiti), and esports.
Construction and layout (From scratch): An accurate vector cut of the cardboard box was designed. Optimal flaps for automated gluing, creasing lines, and cut-out extensions were calculated, ensuring perfect assembly on production lines.

Adaptation and layout of the line (2 SKUs): A universal modular grid was developed for two flavor positions (cocoa with sesame and condensed milk). Clear color differentiation and dynamic food zones with a 3D splash effect were created.

Bilingual typography: Complex technical and marketing information (ingredients, nutritional value, promo blocks) was integrated in two languages (UA/EN) without overloading the composition.

Technical parameters of the project
Product: Dry breakfasts (rings), 75 g.
Type of packaging: Cardboard box (chromerzats), full-color printing (CMYK).
Scope of work: Development of construction (die), illustration, layout of the line, pre-press preparation.

Conceptual trilogy of the line (3 SKUs)
To cover the maximum interests of the modern teenage audience, three independent visual concepts were developed. Each of them not only changes the color of the packaging but immerses the consumer in a separate subculture:

Concept 1: Croco Ride (Flavor: Cocoa and sesame)
Aesthetics: Aggressive night urbanism, neon lights of the metropolis.
Plot: Mr. Croco as a biker on a custom naked bike (inspired by Yamaha MT-03). Acid green and deep dark accents emphasize the rich chocolate flavor of the product and create an atmosphere of speed and drive.
Concept 2: Street Squad Crew (Flavor: With condensed milk)

Aesthetics: Daytime street art, sunny juicy urban.

Plot: The mascot as a street artist-muralist with a spray can and wearing a respirator. A bright, warm palette and light shades perfectly differentiate the delicate milk flavor, while a graffiti wall adds texture to the composition.
Concept 3: Cyber Athlete (Alternative brand concept)
Aesthetics: Technological gamer lair, digital cyber aesthetics.
Plot: Mr. Croco as a professional esports player and game developer in a top ergonomic chair in front of curved monitors. Complex blue-purple LED lighting and programming interface elements appeal to the gaming community.

Result
A flexible and viable visual system was created, where the mascot transforms along with trends. The project demonstrates how a brand can grow with its audience, transforming from a "children's dry breakfast" into a cool, desirable teenage merchandise.

Illustration "Cossack Brotherhood" for print on a mug

Artwork

Task: Create a group portrait of six Cossack brothers in an authentic style for high-quality application on a ceramic mug.

Key requirements and optimization:
Composition: Exactly 6 characters (brothers), depicted in close-up (from the waist up). A tight, cohesive arrangement of figures to maintain detail on the limited surface area of the mug.
…
Stylistics: Historical accuracy without caricature. Traditional hairstyles (forelocks), mustaches, realistic clothing (zhupans, embroidered shirts), and elements of Cossack attributes.
Background: As minimalistic as possible, without unnecessary details or landscapes. The final decision is to integrate the blue-yellow Ukrainian flag directly as the background fill, eliminating visual noise in the foreground.

Result:
A print-ready layout with high contrast, clear outlines, and no unnecessary elements, ensuring excellent quality of image transfer onto the curved surface of the mug.

Development of a table tent with a QR code

Print Design

Category: Graphic Design / POS Materials / Interior Navigation
Format: A6 (vertical), for placement at the reception desk
Task
The client — a modern dental clinic — has requested the design of an information sign (table tent) for the reception area. The main goal: to motivate patients to leave reviews on Google Maps, simplifying this process to one click, and to enhance the clinic's online rating.
…
Concept and Solution
To accomplish the task, I chose a minimalist and trustworthy style that is associated with cleanliness, professionalism, and care:
Communication and Copywriting: Instead of the standard and dry "Leave a review," I developed an emotional and relevant headline — "Share Your Smile!" This creates a direct association with the field of activity and evokes positive emotions.

UX/UI Elements (QR Code): The central element of the composition is a large, contrasting QR code with the Google brand icon in the center. It is instantly readable by any smartphone camera. Below the code, a short instruction prompt for patients of different ages is added.
Visual Style: The light, "airy" background of the card harmoniously combines with the brand's signature elements and delicate botanical accents (olive branches), adding a sense of coziness and eco-friendliness.

Social Proof: A visual trigger in the form of five stars subconsciously programs the patient for a positive evaluation.

Result
A concise, aesthetic, and functional layout has been created that:
Fits perfectly into the interior of a modern clinic without creating visual noise.
Reduces the patient's path to writing a review to 5 seconds (just point the smartphone camera while the administrator processes the documents).
Serves as an effective tool for local SEO promotion of the business through Google Maps.

Tools
Adobe Photoshop / Illustrator (or Canva / Figma — specify your actual tool)
Dynamic QR code generators with scan analytics.

Development of the script for an artistic and journalistic radio project

Script Writing

About the Client
Radio "Voice of Hope" is a nationwide radio station that broadcasts spiritually enlightening, family, and social programs aimed at promoting universal and Christian values.

Task
… Develop a script for a non-standard large-format on-air spot (5 minutes).
Goal: To encourage listeners to reflect on eternal values and discover the Bible as a relevant book for modern life.

Target Audience: Youth, young families.
Challenge: To capture the attention of a discerning youth and family audience for 5 minutes on radio—a format typically dominated by short dynamic spots. Avoid religious pathos, moralizing, and artificial didactics.

Concept and Creative Solution
To address the task, I abandoned the traditional format of direct advertising and transformed the spot into a mini-program/audio parable (special project) using storytelling tools.

Audio Contrast as the Hook: The spot begins with a 45-second dynamic ASMR mix (urban sounds, smartphone notifications, domestic chaos), which abruptly cuts to absolute silence. This compels the listener to instantly break away from routine and pay attention to the broadcast.

Segmentation for the Target Audience: The script appeals to specific "pain points" of young families and youth—the FOMO syndrome (fear of missing out), burnout, loss of direction, and the illusion of "perfect life" on social media.

Change of Tone (Tone of Voice): Instead of a didactic tone, a "peer-to-peer" position is chosen—a warm, velvety voice of the host, who acts not as a teacher but as an empathetic conversational partner sharing deep reflections in the evening in the kitchen.
Cinematic Sound Design: The script clearly outlines the sound score (SFX) and the evolution of the musical accompaniment—from aggressive industrial noise to deep neoclassicism (ambient, piano, strings), creating an effect of presence and immersion.
Structure of the Script
Part 1: Noise of the World (0:00 - 0:45) — Trigger launch, effect of recognition of everyday hustle.
Part 2: Pause (0:45 - 2:00) — Transition to reflection, raising existential questions relevant to young families.
Part 3: Eternity and the Book (2:00 - 3:30) — Presenting the Bible not as a relic but as a practical, psychological, and spiritual guide directly for modern individuals.
Part 4: Integration into the Present (3:30 - 4:15) — Call to simple action (digital detox, evening reading with family).
Part 5: Finale (4:15 - 5:00) — Native exit to the brand Radio "Voice of Hope" through a philosophical conclusion.

Professional Skills Demonstrated in the Project:
Copywriting and storytelling for audio formats (Radio Copywriting).
Sound directing and ability to work with audio effects (SFX) on paper.
Working with long-form content (Long-form audio content).
Deep understanding of the psychology of the target audience (youth, young parents) and the specifics of religious/social marketing.

Design of premium cigarette packaging "Aethelgard"

Packaging and label design

Project Overview
"Aethelgard" is a concept for a limited edition of cigarettes in the premium segment. The main task of the project is to combine a strict classic style, minimalism, and modern graphic design trends, creating a product that stands out on the shelf through tactile and visual accents.
Role: Graphic Designer, Packaging Designer.

… Tools: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Cinema 4D / Blender (for 3D visualization).

The Challenge
Develop a packaging design (King Size format with sharp edges) that conveys high product quality and status. The challenge was to harmoniously integrate mandatory legislative elements (health warning about the dangers of smoking and barcodes) without compromising the premium aesthetics and purity of the composition.
Design Solution

Color Palette: Deep, noble matte shades were chosen as the basis — Midnight Green (dark fir), deep blue, and warm bronze. They create a sense of restrained luxury.
Typography: A refined Serif font (with serifs) was developed for the brand name "Aethelgard," emphasizing classic roots and traditions of quality.
Graphics: The central element is an original minimalist heraldic symbol — a stylized tobacco leaf inscribed in a geometric shield.

Printing Technologies (Post-Press): The design is crafted considering modern finishing technologies — the use of matte varnish (soft-touch effect) for the pack itself and hot foil stamping for the logo and emblem.
Technical Details

The project is fully prepared for production:
An accurate technical layout (Die-line) has been developed, taking into account the lines for creasing and cutting.
Legislative requirements for the placement of warning texts in Ukrainian ("SMOKING KILLS") have been considered, occupying a clearly defined area on the front.

The internal design is well thought out: branded matte foil and the signature style of the cigarettes themselves (black cigarette paper with a gold rim on the filter).

Packaging design for children's cutlery

Packaging and label design

About the project
Product: Premium children's cutlery set of 3 items (spoon, fork, knife).

Task: Create unique, bright, and competitive packaging that stands out on supermarket shelves, evokes the emotion of a "desired gift" in children, while remaining clear and informative for parents (the main buyers, 70-80% are women).
…
Stylistics: Playful, Candy-style, Trendy Art Toy / Collectible aesthetics (reference - the Labubu universe).
1. Structural solution: Breaking the plane
Instead of a classic flat box, a compact hexagonal prism (Hexagon Box) has been developed.

Interactivity: The utensils are not lying in one plane but are arranged in a circle on three sides of the packaging (1 face = 1 utensil = 1 separate window). This encourages the child to rotate the box in their hands, turning unboxing into a game.

Compactness: The shape is designed so that the packaging does not look bulky or elongated. The height and width of the faces are mathematically tied to the dimensions of the utensils ($H = L + 30\text{ mm}$), optimizing logistics and shelf space usage.
Visibility: Three custom capsule windows with soft rounding provide 100% visibility of the shape and ergonomics of each utensil's handles from different angles.
2. Visual concept and Color scheme
The main taboo of the project is the rejection of a boring white background in favor of a juicy commercial "explosion".

Color palette: Based on "tasty", dense pastel shades (mint, lavender, marshmallow pink, warm yellow). The technique of Color-blocking and soft gradients is used, creating the effect of an expensive, trendy product.

Graphics and Characters: Inspired by the culture of collectible vinyl toys. Kawaii-ironic characters with big eyes and funny costumes create a strong emotional connection with the child.
Typography: Friendly, rounded 3D fonts with expressive outlines. Titles and informational blocks are styled like collectible stickers.
3. Marketing architecture of the faces (Unfolding)

The packaging is clearly divided by functionality for optimal perception:
3 Presentation front faces: Maximum focus on the product through windows. Minimal text - only large emotional branding and an accent label "3 Items Set".
Side zones: Trendy infographics (safety and ergonomics labels: Easy Grip, BPA Free, Ages 3+), which are instantly readable by parents.

Back face: Rational choice area for adults (technical text, composition, certification, barcode, and user instructions).

Result
A unique packaging concept has been created that successfully balances between two audiences. The product has received a premium visual status of "Art Toy", justifying a higher price segment on the shelf and stimulating impulse purchases due to the "wow-gift" effect.

Stack: Adobe Illustrator (stamp and vector graphics development), Adobe Photoshop (correction, texturing), Mind Journey / AI visualization (generation of conceptual ideas and renders of the unfolding).

A script for a modern graduation party

Script Writing

Category: Event Scenarios / Concept for a Private Event
Target Audience: 11th Grade Graduates (Boomer/Alpha Generation) and their Parents.
Format and Location: Banquet Hall / Restaurant
Number of Guests: ~50 people
…
Task (The Challenge)
Develop a creative, dynamic script for a graduation evening that completely departs from outdated school templates (boring line-ups, poems from the internet, long official speeches).

Main Challenge: Create synergy between two different generations — teenagers and parents, bringing them together on the dance floor and in shared interactions, avoiding a sense of "cringe" for the youth and discomfort for the adults.

Concept and Solution (The Concept)
The "Off-line" concept is built on a balance of modern digital trends (AI, TikTok, memes) and live, sincere communication. The 6-hour program is divided into emotional blocks, where each guest is an active participant in the show, not just a spectator.

Key Features of the Script:
Digitalization and AI: Using neural networks to create interactive content (generating futuristic portraits of guests for the show "Neural Network Knows Everything").
Gamification "Generation VS Generation": Interactive battles on understanding each other's slang and pop culture, breaking down barriers through humor.

Emotional Digital Capsule: Creating a closed Telegram bot for collecting media memories, access to which will automatically open exactly 5 years later.

Breaking Formats: Replacing the traditional slow waltz with a "Craft Dance Flashmob," which starts lyrically and transitions into a TikTok mix.

Structure of the Implemented Project (Deliverables)
Within the case, the following was developed:
Minute-by-minute timing plan of the event (from the Welcome zone to the final DJ set).
Complete script for the host (text prompts, interactive blocks, mechanics for emergencies).
Musical direction: Exclusive playlist including modern Ukrainian radio hits, retro drive in modern arrangements, and background tracks to maintain tempo.
Checklist for technical and props support for the event coordinator.

Result (The Result)
100% guest engagement: The program is designed so that multimedia contests engage even the least active parents.

Emotional Balance: The event combines high dynamics (Stand-up, battles) and deep sentimental moments (Digital Capsule, candle finale), leaving a lasting aftertaste.

Scalable Product: The script is easily adaptable for any number of guests (from 30 to 150 people) thanks to the modular structure of the blocks.

Creation of premium commercial content for the brand

Photo Processing

Role: AI Digital Artist / Product Retouching Specialist
Category: E-commerce, Product Photography, AI Generation, Marketplaces

Project Task
… Transform amateur photographs of soft cookie packaging (doypacks), taken in home conditions on a metal surface, into high-quality commercial content for websites, social media, and marketplaces.

Main Requirements:
Align the geometry and perspective of the packaging.
Clean textures from creases, dents, and glare from the film.
Create cards for each of the 4 types of cookies from both sides (front + back with readable text).
Create a main image photo (Hero Shot) for the entire product line in a unified aesthetic composition.

Alternative Solution: Integration of original digital templates (design mockups) was proposed instead of the logistics of physical goods, completely eliminating the client's costs for delivery and studio shooting.

Stages and Technological Process
1. Pre-processing and geometry alignment (Photoshop / Photopea)
Working with perspective: Using distortion tools (Distort / Perspective Crop), the original angles of the packaging were transformed into ideal frontal objects (face-on), parallel to the edges of the frame.
Contour plasticity: Silhouettes and edges of the packs were aligned to form clear geometry for further work with neural networks.
Retouching defects: Using the Patch Tool and Spot Healing Brush, large dents and creases in the soft packaging were smoothed out, and dirty light glares from glossy elements were removed.
2. Concept development and AI-generated environment (Flair.ai)
To emphasize the naturalness and premium quality of the product, a style of modern stone minimalism was chosen. A series of optimized English prompts were written for scene generation:
...standing on a smooth, modern matte stone podium, clean minimalist concrete background, soft natural sunlight from the side, subtle elegant shadows...
The neural network generated a textured environment (matte stone, light plaster, organic elements of eucalyptus and ingredients), perfectly calculating the fall of soft shadows and reflections for each packaging.
3. Composition and finalization of content
Product grid: 8 separate equal images were formed for four flavors (Rice, Buckwheat, Corn, Corn-Sorghum) — each showcasing the front side and back with clear, readable descriptions and QR codes.
Hero Shot: The final group composition was assembled. All 4 packs were displayed on multi-level stone podiums in a unified light-airy space, creating a holistic perception of the brand line.

Project Result
The client received a complete package of graphic materials ready for publication, without actual shooting.

Budget Savings: 100% (zero costs for product logistics, studio rental, photographer's work, and lighting operator).
Time Savings: The project was completed in a few hours instead of several days of standard shooting process.

Visual Effect: Perfect cleanliness of the packs without physical defects, soft luxurious light, and a unified style that increases conversion to sales on online platforms.

Development of a cover for a children's book

Print Design

Role: Illustrator / Cover Designer
Project: Children's Fairy Tale (ages 7–10)
Format: Full spread (front + back cover and spine)

… Task
Develop a cohesive cover spread for a children's adventure book. The main task of the client is to visually convey the atmosphere of a kind, bright, yet mysterious magical forest, as well as to introduce the reader to the main character (an 8-year-old girl) and the creatures that inhabit this world.

Stylistics and Artistic Solutions
Visual Style: The work is executed in a bright cartoon style (palette and volumes inspired by the aesthetics of Pixar animation). Characteristic features include rounded shapes, detailed textures, and expressive facial expressions.

Characters: Created the image of a curious girl with an emotional, lively gaze. As a key fairy tale character, developed a charming glowing winged fox, as well as brought to life elements of the forest (a friendly tree spirit and forest creatures).

Work with Light and Color: Light plays a key role in creating a magical effect. The contrast of deep natural tones (brown, emerald) with luminescent neon accents (pink, blue, and golden plants) adds volume and charm to the illustration.

Composition of the Spread

Front Cover (right side): Expository part. Focuses the child's attention on the heroine's first encounter with the magical forest. The book title is integrated into the overall composition using a stylized three-dimensional font that is easy to read.

Spine: Concisely connects the two parts of the illustration, contains the book title, author's name, and a decorative lantern element that emphasizes the theme of the journey.

Back Cover (left side): Continuation of the forest landscape with a path that invites readers to look inside the book. The composition includes clean, visually uncluttered areas for text annotation, barcode, and publisher's logo.

Technical Parameters: Prepared for print considering bleed, color profile, and resolution for high-quality offset printing. Conceptual modeling and modern AI tools were used in the creation to finalize the artwork.

Brand development and naming

Logo Design

Direction: Naming, Brand Strategy, Conceptual Identity
Establishment Format: Modern Kiosk (5 m²), Street Food (chebureks, yantiks, coffee, lemonades)
Location of Launch: Odesa, by the sea (with scaling into a national franchise)

… 1. Challenge and Task
The category of cheburek shops in Ukraine has long been associated with outdated Soviet clichés ("Cheburek No. 1", "Tasty Chebureks") or chaotic station trading. The client faced an ambitious challenge: to enter the free market of quality street food with a bold, stylish brand that can become a national chain like "Drunken Cherry" or "Lviv Croissants" in 5 years.

Task:
Develop a unique name (naming) that is easy to read, memorable, and brings a smile.
Move away from straightforward names (the word "chebureks" is to be placed separately on the sign).
Create a digital-oriented concept adapted to TikTok and Instagram trends.
Lay a strong potential for scaling and selling franchises.

2. Strategic Analysis and Solution Search
I analyzed the location constraints (the first point is a compact 5 m² kiosk in a high pedestrian traffic area by the sea) and the needs of the target audience (youth, tourists, families). In such conditions, the brand must instantly break through the banner blindness of passersby.
Several creative vectors were tested (Odesa color, authenticity, metaphors). The expert choice was the direction "Bold Digital Hype" — it works best for impulsive purchases "on the go" and creates viral potential on social media.

3. Result: Naming "KHRUS"
"KHRUS" is pure onomatopoeia (sound imitation) that reproduces the sound of the first bite of a perfect, hot cheburek with bubbly dough.
Why it works: The name focuses on the main product advantage — the perfect texture. It is short, like a shot, devoid of cheap pathos, and is a direct trigger for appetite.
Franchise potential: Maximum. The word is universal for any region of Ukraine, not tied to a specific geography, and easily becomes part of urban slang ("Let's go for a khrus?").

4. Concept of Verbal and Visual Identity
Verbal Style (Tone of Voice):
Lively, dynamic, slightly cheeky, with a sense of humor. Communication with the client is informal.
Main slogan: "One bite — and full khrus!"
Micro Copywriting on Packaging: "Caution! Juice shoots out."
Visual Solution:
Color Palette: Basic matte graphite black (creates a sense of premium quality, stands out among the bright chaos of the waterfront) and contrasting amber-yellow (the color of the sun and perfect golden frying).

Typography: Massive, bold geometric grotesque with a rightward tilt (the effect of street food speed). The letter "U" is graphically stylized to resemble the break of crispy dough, from which bubbles and crumbs fly out.

Mascot "Khrustik": A charismatic animated cheburek in black wayfarer sunglasses with a sly smile. The main tool for engaging the audience on TikTok and creating sticker packs.

5. Project Result and Deliverables
I formed a complete brand package, ready to be handed over to designers and lawyers for trademark registration:
Conceptual naming with marketing justification and initial risk analysis.
A system of slogans and micro copywriting for packaging.
Technical assignment (TA) for the development of a graphic logo and visual style of the kiosk.
Prototype of the mascot for digital campaigns.
Vector SVG template of the logo as the initial visualization of the concept on a black facade.
The brand is fully packaged for a quick launch and further scaling across the country.

Development of a medical sticker pack

Print Design

Direction: Illustration, character design, sticker pack
Task: Based on the existing mascot (Capybara Kapi), develop a series of 10 themed stickers and adapted coloring pages on medical topics for use on Apple mobile devices.
Project tasks
• Character adaptation: Transfer the existing mascot Kapi into a medical context while preserving its character, signature anatomy, and recognizability.
… • Emotional diversity: Create 10 unique plots (situations and emotions) that cover medical routines, health care, and basic hygiene rules.
• Technical optimization for iOS: Prepare files according to the strict technical requirements of the Apple ecosystem.
Technical solutions and work stages
1. Development of concepts and storyline:
Ten plots were formed and implemented, including: "Kapi the Doctor" (main image), "Care" (symbol of support), "Washing Paws" (hygiene), "Time for Medicine," and "Safe Distance."
2. Adaptation for Dark Mode:
Since the iOS and iMessage interface can change color, a soft white outline was created around each sticker. This ensures that the character is clearly readable on both light and dark backgrounds of the screen.
3. Format optimization (Apple Standards):
o Canvas size: $618 \times 618 \text{ px}$ (Large standard in Xcode for perfect display on Retina displays).
o Format: Transparent PNG considering Safe Area, so the edges of the sticker are not cut off when zooming with fingers in chat.
o Weight: Each file is optimized to a limit of 500 KB for quick loading.
Project result
A cohesive, bright, and adaptive sticker pack has been created, which easily integrates into iMessage and can be used for both digital communication and as a basis for branded products (for example, vinyl stickers for the back of a phone). The character turned out to be friendly and calming, fully aligning with the specifics of the medical theme.

Illustration for engraving

Photo Processing

About the project
Development of a souvenir commercial illustration for subsequent laser or milling engraving on wood. The main task was to combine key visual symbols of the famous Swiss alpine resort of St. Moritz into a single, balanced composition in a 1:1 format, adapted to the strict technical requirements of production.
• Project type: Commercial illustration, graphic design
• Direction: Souvenir products, laser engraving / Wood engraving
… • Format: Square (1:1) with soft, natural edge filling
• Style: Black-and-white line art, vector contrasting hatching
Tasks and challenges
1. Technical material limitations: Wood engraving does not forgive overly small, chaotic details or thin lines that may "merge" or chip during milling or burning. Each stroke needed to be optimized.
2. Compositional rethinking: Create a multi-layered panorama of the city without using artificial boundaries or text ribbons. Instead of a strict geometric square, the edges of the illustration were to be formed by natural elements of the landscape.
3. Changing accents: The focus of the lower part of the composition was to be an enlarged frozen lake with figures of skaters, which should remain clear and readable when applied to wood.
Process and artistic solutions
• Detail optimization (Line Art & Hatching): The illustration was executed with confident, clean lines using classic hatching to create deep shadows. This provides ideal contrast for CNC machines: clear burning/extraction zones of wood and clean light areas of the material's texture.
• Multi-layeredness and architectural dominants: The composition is built on three main planes:
o Foreground: Enlarged mirror of the lake with concise silhouettes of people on skates, framed by snow-covered firs creating a natural "living" frame.
o Middle ground: Architectural ensemble of the city (including the iconic Badrutt’s Palace hotel) and a carriage that adds a cozy historical atmosphere.
o Background: A massive and majestic railway viaduct with the famous red train dynamically crossing the composition diagonally, and massive Alpine peaks closing the top of the frame instead of a classic sky.
Result
A finished graphic layout, fully ready for production. The work demonstrates a balance between the artistic expressiveness of the landscape and the strict engineering approach to preparing files for engraving. By avoiding small text and replacing complex baroque elements (such as figures of angels from the initial reference) with clean geometry of mountains and architecture, the layout became universal, monumental, and commercially attractive.

Wedding print design

AI Art

About the Project (Overview)
Development of a custom double-sided wedding invitation in A5 format, turnkey. The main task is to move away from classic ornate templates with gold embossing and create a light, stylish, and emotional story that reflects the couple's character.
• Format: A5 (148×210 mm), prepared for double-sided printing.
• Style: Minimalism, doodle art, line art.
… • Focus: Contemporary commercial illustration for premium and intimate printing.
Tasks and Challenges (The Challenge)
• Combine informativeness and "airiness": Place a large array of technical data (date, timing, location, dress code, RSVP, gift wishes) without overcrowding the space and maintaining a minimalist spirit.
• Emotional anchor: Create unique characters in a casual, lively pencil sketch style that set the tone for the entire celebration.
• Versatility: Ensure a perfect fit of the layout for dense textured paper types (cotton or kraft paper with pronounced texture).
Execution Process (The Process)
1. Conceptual search and storyline: Development of a series of line illustrations. Several storylines were created (walking hand in hand, a couple on a tandem bicycle) that convey dynamics, lightness, and a romantic mood without unnecessary pomp.
2. Working with text architecture (Typography): Using contrast between an accent, lively calligraphic font for names and a concise, easy-to-read humanist grotesque for information blocks.
3. Development of infographics for the back side: Instead of dry lists of requirements, unique minimalist icons (Dress code, RSVP, parking) were illustrated for the back side (Details). This transformed organizational moments into part of the visual style.
Result (The Result)
A clean, adaptive design of the wedding layout has been created, ready for offset or digital printing on designer cardboard.
• Front side: Focuses attention on the couple and the main event through emotional illustration.
• Back side: Serves as a convenient and aesthetic guide for guests, where each block of information is visually separated and easy to read.
The card leaves a feeling of premium, yet very personal and warm branding of the event.
Technical Specifications (Specs)
• Programs: Adobe Photoshop / Procreate
• Color model: CMYK (for print) / RGB (for digital version)
• Resolution: 300 DPI
• Design elements: 100% original line graphics and icons.

Illustration for a book

AI Art

Role: Illustrator / Book Graphic
Direction: Character Design, Visual Consistency, Digital Art
Stylistics: Dark Fantasy / Grim Realism
Project Overview
… Work on a series of illustrations for a dark fantasy genre book. The main task of the client was not to create concepts from scratch, but to adapt existing references to a unified artistic standard and ensure absolute recognizability of the characters in various plot scenes.
The Challenge
Consistency: Maintain the exact anatomical structure of the face, proportions, hairstyles, and costume details of the characters in different angles, poses, and lighting variations.
Stylization: Transfer the disparate references of the client into a single, monolithic artistic style that corresponds to the grim atmosphere of Dark Fantasy.
Series: Create a stable visual base for the use of characters in dynamic and static scenes throughout the book.
Process & Workflow
1. Analysis and Fixation of Anthropometry (Identity Mapping)
The work began with a detailed analysis of the client's references. Key "anchors" of each character's appearance were identified: unique eye shape, cheekbone architecture, jawline, and characteristic clothing elements. This allowed for the fixation of character identities before starting to draw the scenes.
2. Development of Character Sheets
To ensure visual stability, basic angles (frontal, three-quarters) were created, and the characters' facial expressions were tested. This eliminated distortion of facial features when changing angles in future illustrations.
3. Working with Light and Atmosphere (Dark Fantasy Aesthetic)
To integrate the characters with the environment of the world, contrasting light and shadow (chiaroscuro), deep dark tones, and accent light sources (such as fire or magical glow) were used to emphasize the drama of the scenes.
The Outcome
A series of illustrations was created where the characters look absolutely recognizable from scene to scene. The original concept of the client was fully preserved but elevated to a professional level of detail and artistic integrity. The client received a complete visual package, fully adapted to the technical requirements of book printing.

Illustration for a historical web portal

Web Design

About the project
Task: Create an atmospheric, premium, and factually accurate visual for the first screen (Hero Block) of the main page of a website dedicated to historical research, archives, and family memory.
The main challenge was to combine a deep historical atmosphere with the requirements of modern UI/UX design: to maintain high text readability, properly distribute visual accents, and ensure flawless adaptability for mobile devices.
UX/UI and compositional solutions
… 1. Desktop version
Asymmetrical balance: The composition is built on the principle of Rule of Thirds. The main mass of detailed objects (books, antique maps, photographs, artifacts) is shifted to the right.
Text focus area: The left side of the screen is intentionally left free of small details. Soft artistic blur (bokeh) and deep darkening of the background were used. This created the perfect contrast for white and cream text, ensuring the readability of the title, subtitle, and CTA button without using harsh blocks.
Meaningful content: Each element in the frame works towards the theme of the project — from authentic impressions of wax seals and an antique magnifying glass to fragments of geographical maps and portraits in original frames. No random "fantasy" decor.
2. Mobile version
Recomposition for vertical format (9:16): Direct cropping of the desktop version would disrupt the logic of the interface. Therefore, for mobile devices, the composition was completely rebuilt.
Vertical hierarchy: The text block was moved to the top of the screen, where a muted, blurred interior of an archival library serves as the background.
Preservation of details: Key material objects (open book, letters, map) were shifted down and to the center, directly under the action button (CTA), which holds the user's attention while scrolling on a smartphone.
Stylistics and color scheme
Palette: The concept is based on noble, warm, and muted shades: sepia, deep chocolate, graphite, the color of old yellowed paper, and muted gold accents in interior elements (table lamp, frames).
Atmosphere: An intelligent, "expensive" visual style that evokes a sense of reliability, academicity, and respect for the past. The chiaroscuro drawing creates volume and depth, drawing the user into the research.
Composition of the final package of materials (Deliverables)
Main illustration for the desktop version (high resolution, optimized WebP/JPEG).
Adapted mobile version of the illustration considering the vertical UI layout.
Working source files with clear layer structuring (organized groups for text, graphic elements, background, and darkening effects).
Interactive preview (Mockup) of the interface display on different types of screens.

The order involved creating a colored, detailed image of a jaguar on a deep black background. The main challenge was to accurately replicate the pose, angle (three-quarter head turn), and dramatic lighting from the provided black-and-white reference, while completely altering the appearance of the animal and the structure of its fur. The initial sketch contained features of another feline, so a critically important task was to achieve absolute anatomical and textural accuracy specifically for the wild jaguar, using the provided sample of fur texture (natural skin).
…
Technical Process and Solutions
• Analysis and Differentiation of References: A detailed analysis of the anatomical differences among big cats was conducted. The initial sketch exhibited traits of a leopard/cheetah. Key markers of the jaguar were highlighted for correct transformation: a bulkier head structure, strong jaw, and absence of "tear tracks" on the muzzle.
• Working with Fur Pattern (Texture Matching): Instead of the solid spots of a cheetah or empty rings of a leopard, the unique coloration of the jaguar was integrated — large rosettes with clearly visible small black spots inside. The second reference (photo of the skin) served as a guide.
• Iterative Generation and Composition Control: Using AI tools and precise prompting, several stages of generation were executed. The main focus was on maintaining the original position of the ears, tilt of the head, and direction of the gaze.
• Final Correction (Post-production): Removal of artifacts, final detailing (whiskers, eye shine, fur contrast) to achieve maximum realism and depth of the black color in the background.

Result
A high-quality digital art piece was created that perfectly combines the composition specified by the client and impeccable species accuracy. The image is ready for use in print, digital design, or as an element of premium visual assets.

Development of military identity and shoulder insignia

Clothing design

Category: Military Design / Heraldry / Unit Identity
1. About the Client and Context
The RUBpAK "LEMBERG" of the 2nd Galician Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine (Lviv) specializes in the use of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) of various classes: from strike and reconnaissance to logistical systems. The historical name of the city (Lemberg) and its strong regional ties required the creation of a strong, traditional symbol, reinterpreted through the lens of modern warfare technologies.
2. Project Tasks and Challenges
… The main task was to completely move away from template-based, anatomically distorted, and detail-overloaded AI generations, creating a strict, graphically clean military insignia.
Key challenges:
• Organic symbiosis of meanings: Combine a classic heraldic lion (symbol of Lviv and Galicia) in a state of aggressive roar with elements of unmanned aviation.
• Technological production limitations: The physical size of the chevron is 90 mm in height. Any small details (like initial ideas of a "lion made of a flock of birds") would turn into a muddy spot during machine embroidery or PVC casting. The design had to be perfectly readable from a distance of 1–2 meters.
• Adaptability of form: Create two variants of background geometry — a classic combat shield and a round parade patch with circular fitting for long inscriptions.
3. Conceptual Solutions (3 Directions)
I developed and tested three conceptually different approaches to visualization, which later formed a unified line of 6 patches.
• Concept 1: "Aerodynamic Pride" (Dynamic Profile) The lion's head in a fierce roar is turned heraldically to the right (to the viewer's left, symbolizing forward movement, into attack). The lion's mane is fully transformed into sharp, chopped wings of a strike UAV of aircraft type, the lines of which transition into the swirl of a propeller. Maximum dynamics and minimum lines.
• Concept 2: "Vector Quadrimensional" (Tech-Frontal) The lion looks directly at the viewer. The eyes and brow arches are integrated with a multi-lens optical array of a reconnaissance station, and in its teeth is clamped the silhouette of an FPV drone at the moment of impact. The composition is held by a rigid X-shaped frame of the quadcopter in the background.
• Concept 3: "Galician Pure Snarl" (Heraldic Frontal) The cleanest option from the perspective of classic emblematic design. The anatomy of the lion's muzzle remains authentic, and the affiliation with UAVs is resolved through the surroundings: four symmetrical silhouettes of propellers in the corners of the shield and thin geometric lines of a techno-cross in the background.
4. Matrix of Final Layouts (Grid 3×2)
The project was successfully completed by creating a cohesive system of 6 chevrons, executed in a unified premium low-visibility palette (deep dark blue background, dull gold for contour embroidery, and creamy-white color for military fonts).
• "Shield" Format (Combat Sleeve): Compositionally optimized for priority reading of the main word. The inscription LEMBERG is placed on the upper bar along the arc of the shield.
• "Circle" Format (Parade / Circular): Rigid circular layout. The upper contour features the inscription 2 GALICIAN BRIGADE NGU, and the lower one — RUBpAK LEMBERG. Between them, four-ray star dividers are integrated, graphically repeating the shape of a screw.
5. Technical Parameters of the Project (Production-Ready)
• Vector Cleanliness: All layouts were delivered to the client in .AI and .SVG formats. No raster effects or gradients. All fonts converted to outlines (Create Outlines).
• Optimization for Embroidery/PVC: The radius of rounding of the inner corners of elements (teeth, wing tips) is fixed at a level of $ 0.5$ mm. This prevents fabric from being pulled by threads during high-density stitching or deformation of liquid rubber in molds.
• Alpha Channel: Layouts have a fully transparent background outside the outline of the shield/circle for convenient branding of digital materials for the unit, reports, and video chronicles.

Commercial retouching and visualization of furniture

Photo Processing

Task:
Preparation of an image of a chair in mid-century modern style for an e-commerce platform and catalog. The work consisted of two stages: isolating the object on a clean white background and integrating the object into a relevant stylistic interior.
Stage 1. Isolation on white background (Isolate)
• Background cleaning: The object was completely separated from the original environment and placed on a 100% white background (#FFFFFF) to meet marketplace standards (Amazon, Rozetka, Shopify).
… • Maintaining realism: A soft, natural shadow was created under the chair's legs considering the direction of the light source, which helped avoid the "floating" effect of the object in space.
• Contours and texture: Clear boundaries of the wooden armrests and the texture of the upholstery fabric were preserved without blurring or loss of detail when zoomed in.
Stage 2. Integration into the interior (Virtual Staging / Collaging)
• Style analysis: For the chair with elements of natural wood and neutral textile upholstery, a light Scandinavian-style interior with eco-minimalism elements was chosen.
• Working with light and perspective: The object was integrated into the room considering the angle of soft daylight coming from the window. Shadows on the floor (woven rug) and on the chair itself were aligned with the overall lighting of the scene.
• Color balance: Final color correction (color matching) was performed to ensure that the shades of wood and the chair's fabric harmoniously matched the warm tones of the floor, coffee table, and decorative elements in the background.
Result:
The client received two ready marketing tools from one source photo:
1. Catalog photo for the product card, where nothing distracts from the product itself.
2. Image (Lifestyle) photo for social media, banners, or the main page of the website, showing how the object looks in real life and helping the buyer visualize it in their own home.
Tools: Adobe Photoshop / AI-generated environment (Virtual Staging tools).

Logo Design

About the project: Development of a complete identity and sign design for a specialized vaping and tobacco products store. The task was to create a premium yet accessible and recognizable visual style that clearly communicates the product range.
Tasks:
1. Develop a logo: Create a unique and vibrant logo that combines the themes of vaping and classic tobacco.
2. Create sign design: Design a sign that attracts attention and is easy to read. It should be durable and stylish.
… 3. Select a color scheme: Choose colors that evoke trust, emphasize the premium nature of the products, and are associated with both categories of goods.
Process:
1. Analysis and research:
o Market study: Analyzed logos and styles of competitors in the vaping and tobacco store niche. Identified key trends and gaps that can be filled.
o Defining the target audience: Created a portrait of the typical buyer. These are people of various ages who value quality and variety in tobacco and vaping products.
o Brand platform: Formulated the key values of the brand: quality, choice, reliability, modernity.
2. Logo development (Conceptualization):
o Sketches and mood boards: Created several dozen sketches, experimenting with different elements: vapor clouds, tobacco leaves, classic smoking pipes, modern vape devices. Compiled mood boards with examples of stylish logos in related fields.
o Direction selection: Settled on a concept that combines a stylized vapor cloud with the classic symbol of a tobacco leaf or smoking pipe to reflect both categories of products.
o Refinement: Created several logo variants, playing with shape, fonts, and composition. Checked how the logo looks at different scales and on various media.
3. Color scheme selection:
o Experiments: Tested different color combinations: black and gold, deep blue and white, green and brown.
o Final decision: Chose a combination of dark blue (association with trust and stability) with warm brown/terracotta (association with tobacco and naturalness) and accent white (for clarity and cleanliness).
4. Creation of the sign and media:
o Typography: Selected a clean and modern font that is easy to read from a distance. Added contrasting fonts for subtitles and fine print.
o Sign layout: Developed a sign layout considering its size and location. Ensured that the store name "VAPE DEALER / TOBACCO MARKET" is the central element.
o Other media: Created layouts for business cards, packaging bags, product labels, and social media page designs.
Final result:
A complete identity has been created that helps the "VAPE DEALER / TOBACCO MARKET" store stand out among competitors and attract new customers. The client received:
• A unique and recognizable logo.
• A stylish and functional sign design.
• A clear and consistent color scheme.
• Layouts for other identity media.
This helped create a positive brand image and increase its recognition in the market.

Development of a line of concise labels

Packaging and label design

Category: Packaging, Branding, FMCG (Household Goods)
Task: Create a restrained, modern, and highly readable label design for a line of 7 products (cleaning wipes, sponges, microfiber) of the Clean Point brand. The main requirement of the client is conciseness, clear differentiation of products within the series, and mandatory integration of technical elements (barcodes and QR codes).
Concept and Visual Strategy
The foundation of the visual solution is a modular grid that standardizes the appearance of the entire line while maintaining brand recognition and minimizing visual noise typical of many household sector products.
… Clean Background and Minimalism: The use of a white background and the rejection of unnecessary decorative elements ensure high contrast and quick reading of information on supermarket shelves.
Typography: A modern, clear sans-serif font was chosen for maximum accessibility of information. The main emphasis is placed on the product name and its purpose.
Color Navigation: Differentiation of products in the line is achieved through colored blocks and markers that visually duplicate the color of the product itself (for example, a bright yellow element for yellow PRO series wipes, blue for microfiber).
Infographics: Complex text blocks are replaced with minimalist linear icons (Eco-friendly, Strong, Absorbent), making it easier for customers to perceive product characteristics.
Technical Details and Integration
Particular attention is paid to the lower third of the label, where commercial and technical data are harmoniously combined:
Branding: Clear highlighting of the premium/professional series using a contrasting PRO block.
Technical Block: Fixed zones have been developed for the QR code (quick access to detailed information/website) and the EAN-13 linear barcode, which do not overload the overall composition.
Pre-press: The layout is fully adapted to the requirements of flexographic or digital printing on self-adhesive film/paper, taking into account safe margins and requirements for minimum font sizes for technical text.
Result
A universal and easily scalable label design system has been created. Thanks to the concise design, Clean Point products look modern, premium in their segment, and instill consumer trust at first glance.

PACKAGING FOR CROISSANTS

Packaging and label design

About the project
Croissant Freaks is a young brand that energetically enters the healthy food market. Breaking the stereotypical "boring eco-aesthetic" of organic products, the company has created a line of vegan croissants free from gluten and white sugar. The task was to create vibrant packaging that instantly grabs attention and declares the rebellious spirit of the brand right from the supermarket shelf.
Task
Position the healthy product (gluten-free, egg-free, and dairy-free) not as a strict dietary restriction but as a cool and bold choice. The packaging was to combine the aesthetics of "cartoon punk," a branded character, and clear commercial readability of information.
… Solution: Punk Cat
Visual style: The dominant neon pink color (specified in the brief as Pantone 806 C) and contrasting, "street" typography make the packaging noticeable in seconds.
Character: A charismatic punk cat with piercings and patches has been created. He embodies the bakery's manifesto — "Baked Goods Rebellion."
Marketing highlights: A combination of bold slogans (NO GUILT. JUST RIOT.) with clear informational markers (GLUTEN-FREE, VEGAN), which are important for the supermarket audience.
Technical preparation: A complete layout (die-line) has been created considering bleed (+5 mm), fold lines, welding seam borders of the flow pack, and a separate layer for spot UV on the cat's eyes.

Structural and literary editing

Text Editing & Proofreading

Project
Title / Theme: Family Chronicle. The History of the Family Against the Background of Major Historical Events of the 14th–20th Centuries (Commonwealth, Hetmanate, Russian Empire, Emigration).
Volume: 450 pages (~810,000 characters with spaces / 20 author sheets).
The text had a colossal factual basis but suffered from the "artificial intelligence syndrome" (part of the historical context was gathered using AI).
… "Plastic" style: Monotonous sentence rhythm, a large number of bureaucratic phrases, clichés ("it should be noted", "in this historical period") and vague epithets that deprived the text of a living human voice.
Overloaded structure: Massive historical excursions (about the structure of estates, Cossack regiments, noble coats of arms, or imperial bureaucracy) were woven directly into the biographies of ancestors. This destroyed the dramaturgy, and the reader "got stuck" between an academic textbook and the personal drama of people.
Task
Restore the text's lively, natural sound ("human voice"), cleansing it of AI ersatz.
Change the architecture of the book: separate the family behavioral stream from the large historical context.
Align the tone when transitioning from dry archival reconstructions (14th–18th centuries) to artistic-memoir chapters (20th century).
Develop an ergonomic system of footnotes and informational blocks.
Process and Solutions
1. Architectural Reconstruction (Dual Narrative)
I applied the method of "surgical separation" of content. The main text was completely freed from long historical explanations and focused solely on the fates of people, their choices, daily lives, and psychology. All accompanying material was redistributed according to the new structure:
2. Literary rewriting and rhythm change
3. Expert cleaning and work with gaps
Result
A huge array of text (450 pages) transformed into a cohesive, deep family epic that is easy to read.
The historical context no longer hinders the plot but creates a qualitatively three-dimensional background in the form of well-thought-out text inserts.
The effect of "robotized" text has been completely eliminated; the book has acquired a unique, emotional, and at the same time strict scientific-documentary style.
The book layout is fully ready for transfer to the typesetter and final proofreader, while the client saved up to 70% of the budget usually spent on initial rewriting of such volume from scratch.
Example of Reworking ("Before" and "After")
Let’s take a typical "AI fragment" based on data from your first chapter (about the service of Stefan Dolynskyi and his nobility) and see how we can remove the robotic smoothness.
How a standard AI usually writes (Conditional Original):
"Stefan Dolynskyi, who came from ancient pillar nobility, held an important place in the structure of the regiment. In November 1780, he actively participated in operations related to the Russo-Turkish War of 1768–1774, where he proved himself as an executive quartermaster. His duties included providing the unit with forage and provisions in the challenging climatic conditions of the southern steppes, which required great effort and responsibility to the state."
How I would rewrite the same fragment (Human, Dense Style):
"In the imperial papers of the late 18th century, Stefan Dolynskyi was recorded as a descendant of 'pillar nobility.' The Russian bureaucracy stubbornly tried to fit old Polish families into its ranks, translating foreign nobility into a language understandable to the empire. For Stefan himself, this paper was a shield.
In November 1780, he settled in the Kherson Light Cavalry Regiment as a company quartermaster. In documents, this was humorously referred to as 'participation in the Russo-Turkish War of 1768–1774' — the war had long ended, but the scorched southern steppe remained a powder keg. There was no romance in this service. Instead of saber strikes — exhausting bureaucratic routine: securing forage, counting bags of stale oats, patching equipment, and arguing hoarsely with locals over every penny of hay."

Change of perspective, retouching, and photo montage

Photo Processing

Work Directions: Complex retouching, clothing replacement (photo montage), angle generation (AI restoration), preparation for printing/engraving.
Task & Challenge
The client requested a high-quality photograph for a memorial monument for their father.
Input Data: An amateur photo of average quality, taken outdoors in bright sunlight. In the shot, the man was wearing casual light clothing, with a slight three-quarter angle of his face.
… Client's Wishes: Remove unnecessary details from the frame, change the face angle to a strict frontal view (direct gaze), and "dress" the man in a classic formal suit.
Main Difficulty: Changing the face angle on a flat two-dimensional photo while fully preserving recognizability, unique facial expressions, smile shape, and 100% portrait similarity (which is critically important for memorial graphics).

Completed Work (Action)
Analysis and Consultation: Conducted a technical breakdown of the original shot, agreed with the client on the final image (color scheme of the suit, tie) and the format for future application (stone/ceramics).

Angle Generation (Frontal): By combining neural network modeling tools (AI) and manual facial sculpting, I adjusted the head angle to a frontal position without losing individual facial features and skin texture.

Digital Photo Montage: Completely replaced the casual clothing (zippered t-shirt) with a classic white shirt, dark gray textured jacket, and deep burgundy tie. Designed anatomically correct shoulder and collar positioning for the new head angle.

Artistic Retouching:
Cleaned and balanced the light-shadow drawing on the face (removed harsh street shadows).
Performed delicate skin cleaning, preserving natural wrinkles and texture.
Executed micro-contour sharpening of the eyes, eyebrows, gray beard, and hair to ensure the portrait is clearly readable in any transfer method.

Background Replacement: Instead of a chaotic street sky, created a neutral studio gradient background in gray-blue tones, suitable for both color printing on glass/ceramics and easily adaptable for engraving on granite.

Result
A high-quality, strict, and dignified memorial portrait was created, fully satisfying the emotional and aesthetic expectations of the family.
100% preservation of the person's identity and recognizability was ensured despite the radical change in composition.

Technical parameters of the final file (resolution, contrast, contour sharpness) are fully optimized for transfer to the granite workshop — for launching on a laser/impact machine or for high-precision photo printing.

Project Tasks and Challenges
Preparation of the product's output photo (complex composition of white objects on a heterogeneous light background) for use on marketplaces, in catalogs, and premium advertising.
Main challenge: Working in High-Key style (white on white). It was necessary to isolate the objects so that they did not "dissolve" in space, maintaining clear boundaries, realistic texture, and volume.

… Completed Work (Retouching Stages)
• Jewelry Cutout (Isolation): Creation of a perfectly precise, smooth contour of the objects (Pen Tool). The complex textured edges of the bubble block and delicate petals of the live orchid were separated without "ragged" pixels or dirty white halos.
• Deep Cleaning (Hi-End Retouch): Using frequency separation, dust, micro-scratches, technological seams on plastic blocks, and defects on the flower petals were removed. The natural texture of the materials was fully preserved.
• Light and Shadow Drawing (Dodge & Burn): Contrast and volume were locally enhanced. Delicate shadows were painted on the bubble surface of the vertical block, highlighting its unique geometry.
• Color Work (Color Match): White balance was brought to a clean, neutral tone. Dirty gray and yellowish reflections around the objects, typical of amateur shooting, were eliminated.
• Shadow Construction: A soft, diffuse drop shadow (Contact & Drop Shadow) was created, taking into account the physics of light, realistically grounding the objects on the plane and adding depth to the composition.

Result
The visual content was transformed from the "amateur shot" category to the "premium commercial product" category. The image is fully ready for integration into any design layout or product card.
• Format: High-quality PNG (clean transparent background) + JPG on #FFFFFF background.
• Resolution: 2000 × 2000 pixels (square for modern e-commerce platform standards).

The book "The Art of Being Independent" is a practical guide dedicated to the topic of self-realization of the individual and building harmonious partnership relationships in marriage.

About the book
The publication explores the concept of independence not as alienation from a partner, but as the ability of a person (primarily a woman) to be a mature, independent individual who has her own boundaries, values, and resources. The author examines independence through the lens of "personal boundaries," comparing a person's inner world to private property that needs to be protected and developed.
…
Main topics
- Financial independence: why it is important to have one's own resources, how it strengthens the bond with a partner, and allows one to get rid of the fear of "being left with nothing."
- Psychological boundaries: how setting boundaries helps to know oneself, prevents conflicts, and promotes mutual personal growth of spouses.
- The history of women's freedom: an analysis of the emergence of the feminist movement in Ukraine and the world, the struggle for the right to education, work, and voting rights.
- Three pillars of marriage: the concept that healthy relationships are based on a combination of freedom, love, and responsibility.

Key ideas
- Independence is assertiveness: the ability to regulate one's behavior independently and take responsibility for it, without conforming to the expectations of others.
- Partnership instead of control: the book teaches not to change the partner, but to change the conditions in the family so that everyone can develop. Next to an independent woman, a man becomes a partner and companion, rather than the sole responsible party for the family's survival.
- Responsibility as a path to freedom: the author emphasizes that shifting responsibility onto a partner breeds dependence and resentment, while taking it upon oneself gives the power to change the situation.

Target audience
Although the book is written as guidance for a daughter and primarily addressed to women, the author notes that it will be useful for all couples who seek to build healthy partnership relationships. It will suit those who feel like a "victim" in relationships, face manipulation, or want to find a balance between family and personal development.

The task was to write original texts with a specific sound. During the execution of the task, it was emphasized that regular AI-generated text was not suitable for this project. Unfortunately, Svetlana provided clearly generated text (with traces of generation). After clarifying the task, she suggested many more options, but again provided generated texts, albeit of improved quality. At the same time, the project price proposed by Svetlana was several times higher than the prices offered by other candidates, leading to the expectation that the proposed texts would be more original and more refined.
