Arcana
The design system built for AI.
41% of all code is now AI-generated. None of it ships with a design system. Existing UI libraries weren’t built for AI — their tokens are scattered across configs, JS objects, and runtime APIs. The AI is guessing, not reading a spec.
Arcana ships manifest.ai.json — a machine-readable architecture that gives AI agents complete context on every component, every prop, every pattern. One token file controls the entire visual identity.
Same system-thinking I applied at MetaMask and GumGum. Purpose-made for AI.
METAMASK DESIGN SYSTEM
Scaling design consistency across 30M+ monthly active users on WebExtension, Portfolio, and mobile.
CONCRETE 2.0 & AD MANAGER
Rebuilding a revenue platform and its cross-platform design system from scratch. Adopted by six applications.
ARCANA UI
An AI-native design system with machine-readable token architecture. Open source.
I’ve spent six years solving one problem: how do you give an entire product a consistent, beautiful interface without slowing teams down? I design the system. I build the components. I write the docs. I ship the package.

I also build custom homes and cater pizza under Ricotta Bear. Same attention to detail, different materials.
Brands, shops, and experiments I design and build end to end — usually nights and weekends, through my studio 201 Lab.
THE UNEMPLOYABLE
An endless inbox of automated job-rejection emails — a satire of the 2026 hiring market, spun into a clothing brand.
TATANKA GOODS
Brand and booking site for a Bozeman, Montana barbershop. Old-school craft, modern web.
BODYBAG COLLECTIVE
Hand-stitched custom bags from Costa Mesa. A Shopify storefront with a build-your-own-bag panel and color configurator.
GOODIES
An LA home-goods shop — thoughtfully curated ceramics, marble, and wood. Nothing over $25.
