Professional industrial and jewelry designer (here's my Bēhance portfolio), hard-sci-fi enjoyer, cat lover and procrastinator. Started a few communities on kbin: Urban Details, Industrial Design and Jewelry Design, feel free to join if you find those interesting.
You can tip me if you like or use something I made.
Twitter seems to ban all Threads links to reaffirm its position as a “free speech absolutist” platform (www.theverge.com)
A search for Threads content on Twitter currently brings up zero results, despite plenty of links to Meta’s microblogging rival being posted on the platform.
OC Full, expanded list of all the data points and their purposes that Meta's Threads collect and link to user accounts. It's even more insane than you might've thought.
OC I’m back with several more community icons: check out Artemis (future kbin app), Urban Details, 3D Modeling and some other stuff
Honestly, I’ve been really enjoying making these, probably the most I’ve been excited to model something for months. So I exchanged some sleep for a faster turnaround :) Previous post here...
OC Assuming boost stays as some sort of a super-upvote/share combo alongside regular up/downvote buttons, here's a UI idea on how to merge it into one unified voting system. App animation + web block mockup
I heard that votes have been changed to behave closer to how people would expect, and boost is staying here as well. So I had an idea how to bring it all together in the interface....
OC A UI idea on how to merge boosting with up/downvote buttons into one unified voting system in a visual way
Artemis might use a swipe gesture to visually hint at the relation between upvoting and boosting, as shown in the main animation. Here's a static app mockup with both swipe levels displayed. I'd also imagine that there should be a setting that auto-upvotes posts when boosting.
OC Kbinicons Part 3 is here: 19 EU flags in two different styles each + a psd file to generate small instance logos for separate kbin instances
Hi everyone, I’m back with another kbin icon pack. This time it’s flags for 18 EU countries (the non-fancy ones) + an EU flag. So 38 icons in total. All icons come in two styles: semi-transparent/glassy and opaque metallic. I also made a simple instance logo generator....
OC I designed and rendered a couple of icons for the magazines I started, and I’d like to share some behind the scenes images with y'all. I’m also open to doing a few more of these in future.
So I 3D modelled two icons (well, illustrations rather) for the communities that I created on kbin: Industrial Design and Jewelry Design. These icons are meant to reimagine kbin’s logo in a way that's relevant to each community....
Urban Details — a community celebrating everything that cities do right, from tiny Easter eggs or interesting street art pieces to city-encompassing infrastructure projects or unusual public spaces
Check out the pinned post for a general guide to the community that includes lots of relevant examples....
OC I made some icons for the next icon pack, what do you guys think?
Some more info and the reasoning behind design decisions....
Read this from start to finish (or listen to it, there’s an audio version). DO NOT skim it or skip to the end, you’ll spoil it and it won’t work. Trust me, it’s worth it. It’s a thing of beauty. (natethesnake.com)
And I assure you, it definitely fits the community
OC Bonne fête (et bonne nuit de fête) à tous !

Let’s play Roulette Obscura — getting to know random interesting places
Follow this link. It leads to a random page on Atlas Obscura — a website dedicated to collecting unusual places around the world. Tell us what you landed on and share a few thoughts about that subject. You can reroll a few times since not all the results might fit the theme of the community....
OC To start off, I’d like to share a personal industrial design project from a while ago: a concept of what a semi-pro camera system for smartphones might look like (www.behance.net)
Intended mainly as a thought experiment — I tried to come up with a seamless and easy to use system with various accessories, like lenses, filters and blinds, that wouldn’t feel clunky.
The Continuity of Splines (youtu.be)
Probably the best and most comprehensive video about why curvature continuity is so important in product design, what causes those “bumps” on the edges of regularly rounded rectangles, and why it all works as it works.
Industrial Design — a community to discuss interesting ID projects or techniques, share your work, ask for advice, or see what other designers came up with

If you’re using midjourney for ideation or to overcome some designer’s block, here’s a cool list of prompts that includes styles and famous designers (medium.com)
A helpful article containing various examples and how they affect the output
OC Experimenting with using shapes inspired by automotive design as a basis for jewelry pieces. This one’s a pendant.
One of my favourite websites for mindless inspiration-scrolling — leManoosh. What’s yours? (lemanoosh.com)
It’s a Pinterest-like infinite image gallery that posts various interesting industrial design-related images without any needless articles and all that. Everything is pretty well-tagged in case you’re looking for something specific.
OC Lyon’s city park, Parc de la Tête d'Or, has a built in public zoo spanning 6 ha. You don’t need a ticket, and the zoo isn’t enclosed, lots of animals just chill beside you separated by a small moat
Welcome to /m/IndustrialDesign! Let’s discuss the future of this community
Are you an industrial designer actively employed in this field, a student working on your degree, or simply lurking?...

OC I made a joke industrial design project on June 30th to comment on reddit's actions, but it got lost in the chaos of things. So I'd like to share it with you now. CEO Affirmation Blinds: focus on what's actually important!
Way more images on the project page on Bēhance and a shorter one-image version on imgur.
OC Ring and pendant based on an infinity cube table illusion
