## What it is

The Kitchen is the interface-studies section of dqnamo's site, with interactive demos such as Cassette Audio Player, Receipt Printer, Hold to Confirm and Iridescent Foil.

## What it’s for

As a reference for microinteractions with personality, to get away from the generic AI look.

## Benefits

- Examples of interaction, not just visual style
- Includes a tactile button, magnetic drag-and-drop, an animated signature and a ticket with parallax
- Each demo can be explored on the page itself

## Caveats

- Likely match, found by name.
