The Concept:
Sweet UI, Salty Personality
A voice assistant with an attitude. Instead of the usual customer-friendly warmth, this one leans into light sarcasm — think PG-13, not rude.
The visual language was chosen deliberately to balance that edge:
soft, holographic glassmorphism. Sweet enough to keep you comfortable, while the assistant does its thing.
The contrast between form and tone isn't accidental — it's the whole idea. That tension is what holds the user's attention.
Maximum candy to keep
the snark in check.
The Process:
Taming the Randomness
The goal was a set of animated 3D icons that felt like a system — not four separate happy accidents.
To get there, I worked in Midjourney using style parameters and omni-references to lock in consistency across every asset. No randomness, just controlled generation.
From there: pixel-moving and colour correction in Photoshop, then seamless motion loop and shadow level assembly in After Effects.
UI Integration & Design System
Generated assets don't live in a vacuum.
The icons were integrated into a structured UI kit in Figma, built around the key screens of the mobile app. Grid, typography, contrast ratios, spacing — everything locked down and ready for handoff to development.
