Three design studies for local businesses.

A neighbourhood diner with character, a cultural project for a Bucharest Japanese garden, a specialty cafe on Lipscani. Three studies built as serious design and implementation exercises, not delivered projects.

Bucky's Diner

Scope
Brand site, menu, reservations, feedback
City
București
Year
2026

An American-Romanian neighbourhood diner with a voice of its own. The site mixes food photography with billboard-scale display type; hand-drawn sticker badges and a mustard / peach / teal palette separate it from any fast-casual template.

  1. Four burger cards on cream: food photo, hand-drawn sticker badge (CLASIC ★, FANCY cu fason), and a SMALL / MEDIUM / LARGE price table. The detail that gives the page its character.

  2. A single display headline at cover scale ('BUCKY'S S-A NĂSCUT DINTR-O PROMISIUNE…'), tight uppercase on cream, with one restrained paragraph below. Typography carries the page on its own, no imagery needed.

Grădina Japoneză București

Scope
Cultural project site, masterplan, architecture
City
București
Year
2026

A site for a cultural project: a Japanese garden conceived for a Bucharest neighbourhood. Archivo Black display at ~12.6vw, a cream-paper-and-ink palette with amber as signal, and a kanji notation that threads the sections. Reads like an architecture monograph, not an event page.

  1. The warmest dark section on the site: near-black ink, blueprint grid, three plan-sheet cards side by side (cherry blossom, bamboo, autumn), each anchored by an amber kanji. The visual centre of the page.

  2. Three images at deliberately mismatched aspect ratios (a tall Tea House, a medium Koi Pond, a narrow Lantern Path), bottom-aligned so their tops stagger like a skyline.

  3. The amber section. A four-phase construction grid (01 Relevare → 04 Programare); the monochrome numerals at 6xl set at 20% opacity create a typographic watermark that conveys sequence without shouting.

  4. Two columns: the opening manifesto and the start of the plant-palette table (Arțar japonez / Acer palmatum, Pin negru / Pinus thunbergii), paired with a moody studio photograph of a moss-covered stone lantern.

A specialty cafe at Lipscani 14, written like a publication. An editorial hero with the Sămânță logotype over a warm cafe photograph, a hand-drawn map with a pulsing pin, and a reservation form built with attention to every state.

  2. Two event cards with large numeric dates, event-kind labels, seat-availability progress bars, and a 'Rezervă loc' CTA. A quiet UI, with product-grade rigour.

  4. Contact blocks beside a hand-drawn SVG map: grid lines, a topographic curve, a pulsing terracotta pin, a 'Sămânță, Lipscani 14' tooltip. The design element that sets the page apart.
