360° Sketch to Image

Production generative tool that turned rough sketches into immersive 360 scenes and helped move a promising idea into a real product.

What it was.

This project focused on making generative 360 creation steerable instead of purely prompt-driven. Sketching gave users a direct way to shape composition and intent.

My role was in the frontend and UX around that loop: making the workflow legible, fast, and pleasant enough for the technology to become a product rather than remain a demo.

The challenge was balancing model capability with user control. If people could not guide the output, the novelty would not hold up in real use.

It was valuable because it connected generative AI, product UX, and shipping discipline in one consumer-facing feature.

It shipped at Blockade Labs and helped turn a generative concept into a real consumer-facing feature. The value was in making the model usable, not just impressive.
