Our success depends on increasing both the number of designers who receive leads and the number of leads each designer receives. Designers will share their work, advertise their services, and transact through the platform only if they expect to land more clients as a result.

Finding and chasing new clients is exhausting. Getting more work out of existing ones is much easier, more rewarding and more lucrative. Here’s how to go about it.

“I continue to think that glasses are basically going to be the ideal form factor for AI, because you can let an AI see what you see throughout the day, hear what you hear, [and] talk to you,” Zuckerberg said during the earnings call. Adding a display to those glasses will then unlock more value, he said, whether that’s a wider, holographic field of view, as with Meta’s next-gen Orion AR...

Chrome 139 is experimenting with Open UI’s proposed Interest Invoker API, which would be used to create tooltips, hover menus, hover cards, quick actions, and other types of UIs for showing more information with hover interactions. The Interest Invoker API makes these components declarative and hover-triggered, meaning that you create them with HTML, and then the web browser handles the mouseenter and mouseleave events for you, sans JavaScript.

Of all the current debates around AI, one critique has stayed with me: that it’s “flattening the bar.” Tools like ChatGPT, the argument goes, make everyone’s writing sound the same — generic, overly polished, stripped of nuance. The concern is real, and I share it.

Now we’re in the agentic era, and that billing octopus grew some new tentacles just for AI agent billing. Or is it a different octopus? I’m not sure.

For years, it’s been faster to create mockups and prototypes of software than to ship it to production. As a result, software design teams could stay “ahead” of engineering. Now AI coding agents make development 10x faster, flipping the traditional software development process on its head.

I joined the company as the first full-time employee and, over five years, tried on multiple roles — from product design to strategic planning. I helped the product evolve from an idea to a market-ready service, went through one pivot, and gathered a lot of insights along the way. Here’s what I learned — I hope these lessons help you avoid common mistakes in your own journey.

Ever wondered where that bold, slab-serif “college look” comes from? It goes way back to mid‑19th century Ivy League sportswear. Harvard’s baseball team embroidered an “H” on their flannel jackets in 1865, making them the first varsity-style letter sweaters.

Scroll through any modern website or app and you’ll see it: words that slide, bounce, stretch, shrink, fade in and out. It’s not just eye candy. That motion you’re seeing? It has a name: kinetic typography. And in 2025, it’s not just back, it’s better, smarter, and more important than ever in how we communicate digitally.

As social platforms reward visibility, creatives are increasingly expected to make their practice public. Designers are no longer just making work; they are the work. But what started as promotion now risks swallowing design itself.

Picture this: You’re in a meeting room at your tech company, and two people are having what looks like the same conversation about the same design problem. One is talking about whether the team has the right skills to tackle it. The other is diving deep into whether the solution actually solves the user’s problem. Same room, same problem, completely different lenses.

Ensuring your product communicates clearly to a global audience is not just about localisation.

UX Design is evolving. The rise of artificial intelligence has not only impacted how we build and code products but is now influencing how we design user experiences.

A few weekends ago, I launched a Shopify app on my own — not to prove I could code, but to solve a real merchant pain point. I had no dev team, no startup budget — just a clear understanding of the problem, a few AI tools, and the instincts of a designer.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard. It acts like a universal connector for AI applications that will allow them to communicate with external data sources or other tools. So instead of building custom integrations for each of these data sources or tools, MCP provides a standardized way for AI models to access the information they need to provide better and more relevant responses.

Let’s be honest for a second. Most “free Lightroom preset” packs are garbage. They’re either a bait-and-switch for a paid bundle, or they’re so over-the-top they make your photos look like a cartoon parody from 2014. As a designer, your eye is trained for nuance, for balance, for an aesthetic that communicates something. Slapping a garish, one-size-fits-all filter on your work just feels… wrong.

Have you ever opened a new app or website and thought, “Wait… where’s the menu?” You’re not alone. Many people are noticing that the traditional way we move around digital interfaces, those big, bulky menus is slowly fading. And no, it’s not bad design. It’s evolution.

When we hype up the technology, we mostly help the people who put money into it. This post isn’t about those people or that money, maybe they could use the help… my point is, they are irrelevant when we want to understand the merits of AI. They muddy the waters and overshadow the important questions.

But what about future generations? For them, these tools will have always been an integral part of everyday life. Just as I can remember a time without smartphones, my teenage daughter can’t.

When I first stepped into the world of UX, I was flooded with buzzwords — wireframes, user personas, sitemaps, design systems, micro interactions, heuristics… the list never ended.

Scroll-driven animations are great! They’re a powerful tool that lets developers tie the movement and transformation of elements directly to the user’s scroll position. This technique opens up new ways to create interactive experiences, cuing images to appear, text to glide across the stage, and backgrounds to subtly shift. Used thoughtfully, scroll-driven animations (SDA) can make your website feel more dynamic, engaging, and responsive.

Any company, big or small, new or old, will at some point introduce something new to their products for their potential or existing customers to access and use. But anyone who’s done this knows that change often comes with resistance. Some users simply dislike anything new. Others feel their expectations weren’t met, or they think the update doesn’t match their preferences.

Designing visuals that respond to real-time data or user input usually means switching between multiple tools — one for animation, another for logic, and yet another for implementation. This back-and-forth can slow down iteration, make small changes cumbersome, and create a disconnect between design and behavior.

Let’s be honest for a second. Have you ever set up a new front-end project and, somewhere between choosing a build tool, a state manager, and a styling library, just felt… tired? It’s a specific kind of exhaustion. You haven’t even written a line of app logic, but you’re already worn out by the sheer weight of the decisions.

A product catalog does more than list what you sell, it can also help shape how people see your brand. A clean, well-structured layout can make your products easier to browse and more appealing to potential buyers. But starting from scratch in InDesign takes time.

Content design. The somewhat forgotten practice that guides users from A to B. That structures information. That plays a simple yet powerful role in shaping user experience (UX). The unsung hero of design that very rarely receives the recognition it deserves.

I have a confession to make. For the first year or so, I used GitHub Copilot like a glorified spell-checker. A really, really smart spell-checker, sure—one that could write a whole function instead of just fixing a typo—but the dynamic was the same. I’d write, it would suggest, and I’d hit Tab. The end.

To be honest, I was a smidge skeptical. I know what a design token is. It’s a variable of a color or font-family or something. I pretty much only work on websites, so that exposes itself as a --custom-property and I already know that using those to abstract common usage of colors and fonts is smart and helpful. Done.
