Hi everyone, hope all is well.

2025 has had a bumpy start for me personally, but I'm still breathing and drawing rectangles at my desk as usual—couldn't be more grateful for that. I hope my beloved audience is having a nice start too. And if it's a bit bumpy for some, just hang tight; great things are always around the corner. 🌟

Before checking out the Great Stuff below, let's take a moment of silence for Read.cv, one of the best creative portfolio and community tools I've ever come across. It was just announced yesterday morning that they are winding down 😞 and joining the Perplexity team ☕️.

Tool

While exploring the Read.cv page one last time, I discovered Nucleo, a promising alternative for building simple portfolio sites reminiscent of Read.cv. While it may not replicate the entire Read.cv ecosystem, it's still a great option worth sharing with you! 📝

Resource

Ever intrigued by the new branding materials of Dropbox or Walmart you’ve seen online recently? If you're looking to delve into more branding guides, here's the perfect archive for you!

Cool

E-commerce and everyday essentials can sometimes feel monotonous. OEM is shaking things up with a fresh approach to the drugstore concept, offering items for self-care, from lip balm to rehydrating drinks. Their website’s spectacular design leaves a great branding impact.

Early Access

Another week, another capturing tool! This one stands out with its unique design language, combining a notebook, journal, and library in one ✨. Feel free to check it out and sign up for early access!

WTF Site

Sofi sells plant-based inhaling pods, and while the product is cool, their website is even cooler. It features smooth scrolling animations and effects that beautifully showcase its features. 🌿
