Proof of work · A page by Ape Labs

This page is the portfolio.

Most portfolios show you screenshots and ask you to believe the captions. This one takes a shorter route: everything it claims, it performs. It loaded fast. It moves with intent. Every word, colour and cubic-bezier was chosen by one pair of hands — no template, no page builder, no juniors.

Mine don't look generated — because they aren't.

Proof 01 · Craft

Taste is a skill. Here's the receipt.

/ 01

Looks like nobody else's

Type set by hand, colour with intent, motion that earns its place. You'll never spot this design on ten other sites — because it was drawn once, for one business.

/ 02

Reads in one breath

Premium doesn't mean cryptic. A local business owner and an Awwwards judge should both get it in seconds — that's the whole trick, and it's harder than it looks.

/ 03

Loads before they blink

Speed is a feature your customers feel before they see anything. This page ships as a single hand-written file. No bloat was harmed — or used — in its making.

· Fraunces, optically sized · 60fps, transform-only motion · reduced-motion respected · real copy, written by a person · check the source — it's clean

Proof 02 · Results

Page one, on purpose.

A corporate comedy hypnotist — brilliant live, nearly invisible online. I built her a site engineered to rank and convert, then mapped the content strategy that put her on top. She executed it. A real partnership, claimed honestly.

Proof 03 · Feel

Some work you read about. This, you pull.

Tap the deck
The deck is waiting

Pull a card.

Six cards, drawn in code on this very page. Each one is a small proof: illustration, motion, timing and restraint — the same care that goes into a store people trust with a premium product.

Pull a card 0 / 6 pulled

The real thing lives at cosmic-mother.com — a Shopify store designed and built end to end, where the card pull sells the deck better than any product photo could.

Proof 04 · Depth

Websites are the shallow end.

How Are You Really is a mental-health check-in I built end to end — the research, the scoring model, the interface, the SvelteKit build. Questions researchers have trusted for decades, rebuilt as a calm, kind ten minutes that explains what your answers mean in plain language.

UX for sensitive topics is a different discipline: the words matter as much as the pixels, and a wrong tone does real harm. Try one question from it — this slider runs a tiny piece of the real scoring logic.

And then there's the invisible work — apps and automations: the plumbing that answers enquiries, files paperwork and follows up while you sleep.

Yours could be next.

You just scrolled a page that ranks, converts, performs and was made by hand. Imagine what that looks like with your business inside it.
