I'm Berk. I build websites, apps, and tools with you. Open Studio gives us a shared workspace: your real code, an AI to keep things moving, and me for the parts that get hard.

3D worlds, useful tools, and stories worth opening.
Rock GardenA climbing app. A family thread.ExploreCloseA climbing app.
A family thread.
I built Rock Garden to help climbers explore routes in 3D. When Climbing featured the project, it brought the story full circle: my uncle had appeared in the same magazine decades earlier.
This is the app, the article, and why it means something to me.

SundanceThe mountain, before you get there.ExploreCloseLegend Guide Enterprise
For Sundance Mountain Resort, we turned terrain into a place you can explore. Follow a ski run, look around a lift, get a feel for the mountain before you arrive.
From the whole mountain to close-up 3D detail.

Drone-captured terrain. Trail flyovers. A closer look at the places along the way.

Now you can.
That little phone video? It becomes a place you can move through. I built Twinbly to turn photos and videos into shareable 3D experiences.
Here’s a car show, through a different lens. The original footage sits right beside the capture it became.

The terrain I’ve captured. The places people know. A way to explore both, before you get there.

Featured artwork: Wolf King by Greg Overton. Art and exhibition imagery from @zerosense.art; select an image to open its original post.
Watch the original teaser ↗ZEROSENSE started with an idea I brought to my friends Brock and Trevor during our work on HIDE, a fashion project with a critical eye on society. I led its creation, with them alongside me.
Established and emerging artists appeared anonymously through the Monocle AR viewer. Collectors chose what moved them, then competed in a round-by-round “Bid Battle.”
We saw it as a way to introduce Rock Garden’s bigger idea: a map of the world built and owned by its contributors. We explored NFTs as a way to fund that work and reward people for capturing places.
Legend.Guide carries that idea forward with conventional payments: contributors retain rights in their captures, and the model shares royalties when others use them in guides and stories.

DGHBOYA coaching app with a world of its own.ExploreCloseAn app.
A world around it.
I built DGHBOY, a men’s coaching and self-improvement app, and the interactive Spline experience that introduced it. Journaling, coaching, and progress tracking, presented inside a moving 3D world.
This was hands-on work: the app, the scenes, the interactions. Built before today’s AI tools made that process easier.
Grimes / WarNymphFrom a digital double to a magazine cover.ExploreCloseWorking with a small 3D team, I helped turn Grimes’s scan into a morphable Genesis character. We delivered the asset to Grimes and Mac Boucher: a digital self they could reshape, age, and take into their own creative world.
WarNymph went on to cover The Face in Balenciaga. SHOWstudio explored how the avatar let Grimes keep making images and promoting her music during pregnancy, without being physically present for a shoot.
In 2021, Grimes and Mac’s WarNymph NFT collection generated around $6 million in sales, as reported by The Verge. The character work we delivered was an early part of that wider creative story.

SandboxrDigital characters. Physical keepsakes.ExploreCloseI founded Sandboxr to let people shape a digital character and turn it into a physical 3D print. It brought character art, software, and manufacturing into one experience.
We went on to bring that experience to Infinity Blade and other entertainment properties, with collaborations spanning Riot, Nintendo, and Microsoft. Players could customize a character, then have their version printed and delivered.

Visualize a car build before making it real.
A video editor with an AI collaborator.
You bring the idea. AI helps you move. I bring the experience when you need a better direction, a tricky fix, or a second set of eyes. Do more yourself, spend less on me.
Try the idea. Change your mind. Build in the Workshop, or use your own coding tools and AI account with access to your repo.
Design, code, integrations, getting it live. Book me for the work that needs experience. We can work in the chat, on a call, or through a remote session.
Keep building with me, bring in another team, or move hosts. You own the code. We plan access, handoff, and any migration work together.
| Approach | What’s good | What you take on | What you pay for |
|---|---|---|---|
| DIY with AI | Freedom to experiment in your own code. | Decisions, debugging, deployment, and finding help when you’re stuck. | Your tools, hosting, and your time. |
| Managed builder | A convenient place to start, with much of the setup handled. | Checking whether its features, export options, and limits fit your next step. | A subscription and any usage or outside help. |
| Freelancer or agency | A professional can take on most of the delivery. | A clear brief, feedback, and an agreement for changes and handoff. | The agreed scope, time, or ongoing retainer. |
| Open Studio | Your own progress, with an experienced collaborator who can work in the same project. | You stay involved. Human help is scoped and scheduled; ambitious work still takes time. | The Workshop when you use it, plus expert help you choose to book. |
These are approaches, not rules for every provider. With Open Studio, your own AI subscriptions stay separate. We coordinate changes to the repo; moving hosting, data, or integrations can need additional work.
