iOS App icon experiment(opens in a new tab)

I'm a Dutch designer based in Toronto. I take a strong story and build it into something you want to spend time in, not another page that looks like all the others.

An app icon that behaves like the old DVD screensaver: one speed, no friction, bouncing off the edges of the window forever.

Pick it up and flick it to send it somewhere new. It keeps its speed, so you can steer it but not throw it — and yes, it can hit the corner.
