Get your design jobs here!

This week I'm sharing a new project I whipped together quickly to surface the exciting new design opportunities available in the emerging tech space.

Creative Juice is a weekly newsletter published every Monday morning so you can start your week feeling inspired creatively to make cool sh*t and get paid for it. Every Monday I share something gorgeous, a portfolio of the week, three creative finds, one amazing post from social media, and one lesson I learned recently.

If you have an idea of how I can improve Creative Juice, feel free to submit your feedback here.

Something Gorgeous

No Ai Here Said Cara

Cara Portfolio Platform

Cara is a social media platform and portfolio app for artists to share their original works while monitoring for Ai-generated images, which are not allowed. Cara uses a tool called Glaze to protect original works from being replicated by Ai. The platform has grown from a few thousand users to over 300,000 over the weekend.

Portfolio of the Week

An Easy to Navigate Portfolio Website

Ivan Kniazev

I know I've ranted before about sidebar navigation, but the more I see it, the more comfortable I am with it. Ivan's portfolio uses a sidebar for project navigation, making it easy to breeze through his work. His homepage highlights background, process, and includes a brief slideshow of his work.

Score: 8.4/10

Built with: Framer

Drink With Your Nose

Air Up Rebrand by Mother Design

A bold concept tricking your body into thinking you're drinking something other than water using scent. The full case study isn’t up yet, but the marketing materials are striking.
