AvniOS is a modular, white-label vehicle operating system designed to adapt across multiple vehicle brands and use cases.
The product direction and UI were led by the creative director. My role extended beyond the screen: the motion language, interaction behaviours, state transitions, and the cinematic film built to communicate the system's world.

A brand identity is not just a mark. It is how that mark moves, and what moves around it. For Avni, motion is not a layer on top of the identity, it is the identity. The logo, the typography, the system: all of it designed to move, all of it connected by the same motion language.

The speedometer sits in the rider's peripheral vision for the entire ride. Its motion had to register without demanding focus, communicate state without demanding attention. The first approach treated the gradient as atmosphere slow, ambient, decorative.
The problem: in peripheral vision, a slow gradient shift does not register as a speed change fast enough to be useful. The final system ties gradient intensity and colour temperature directly to speed mode. Three states, each legible without the rider looking at the dial.

Same motion dialect across navigation, warnings, and vehicle data. A rider who has learned how the system moves should never be surprised by it. These animations also served as implementation references for the development team.

AvniOS is built to adapt. For Kinetic Green, that meant rebuilding the identity layer from scratch: custom logo animations, symbol animations for transitions, a welcome sequence, and the full green colour system integrated throughout. Same motion language underneath, different world on top.

Built for two purposes: social distribution and B2B client pitches. A vehicle OS is hard to sell on specs alone. The film made the system legible before it was built.

AvniOS was built for the road. The next version is built for the rider. UI that responds to speed: elements scale down and disappear as velocity increases, leaving only what the rider needs at that moment. An interface that becomes more minimal the faster you go.
AR integrated into the helmet, bringing the OS out of the screen and into the rider's field of vision entirely. And a visual identity that matches the ambition. Premium not just in how the OS moves, but in how the brand lives around it.

There is more to this one: the speedometer iterations, explorations for the Kinetic Green brand, rejected ideas that almost made it, and what building a bike in Blender at 2am actually looks like. Happy to walk through it on a call.
