Day 9 – From Raw 3D Objects to a Designed Experience

When I first started this project, everything looked a bit… raw. 3D panels and text floating on top of each other without much hierarchy.

Today, the focus was polish:

  • Spacing & Layout: Hero title, social links, blog panel, and footer are now stacked in 3D space with breathing room. No more visual clutter.

  • Lighting: Balanced ambient + directional lights so objects don’t feel flat.

  • Animations: Orbiting tech chips and subtle motion give the environment life.

  • Depth: Footer slightly pushed back in z-space to feel grounded.

The shift feels big: it’s no longer “just a 3D playground,” it’s becoming a cohesive designed environment.

Next up: refining interactions + adding personality details.
