Introducing Web3 Design Pal
If you design Web3 interfaces in Figma — portfolio dashboards, token list and table, transaction histories — this plugin was built for frustration that came along building it. Designing for crypto means a lot of placeholder data: wallet addresses, The usual workflow is embarrassing: open a browser tab, visit some generator, copy a fake `0x...` address, paste into Figma, repeat for every text layer. With Figma AI, rewrite content or replace content gets a bit better, when you prompt "Replace addr

2025 Wrapped
Reflecting on 2025, there's steady progress in the places that mattered: career transition, community, and staying physically active. Here's what I did, what I'm proud of, and what I'm taking into next year. After leaving OKX at the end of last year, I took a month-long break. I attended World Cafe on Career Break, which gave me a lot of insight into what a break could really mean. During that period, I traveled, read, went on random adventures with my camera, and did quite a lot of journaling,

Things I Built 2025
The 2025 survey by Lenny Rachitsky is full of fascinating insights—but one thing stood out to me: designers remain the least represented group in AI adoption. While PMs are using AI to automate documentation, and developers rely on it to speed up coding, designers’ use of AI still feels… ambiguous. I've joked about losing my job to AI for a while. But honestly? The real question is: how do we co-exist and leverage AI for design and how would the paradigm shift in product world? Each project I b

Use Raycast Like a Pro: Tips for UI/UX Designers

That changed when I started using Raycast daily; its powerful features, rich third-party integrations, and easy customization have replaced many of the small utility apps I relied on. While Raycast does offer impressive AI tools, today I want to share some small habits and tips that have truly streamlined my workflow and kept me in the creative zone as a product designer. ➡️ Extension L

Mapping Variable Modes with Component Variants
Last year, Figma introduced a new way to handle light and dark modes: Variable Modes. The promise was clear - design once, switch between modes seamlessly. No more maintaining separate dark mode screens. It is also a scalable system to support breakpoints or event languages. When variable modes launched, I was so excited for the new dawn and say goodbye maintaining two sets of designs. But I faced immediate challenges at work. My Figma used a mix of legacy components, that does not support vari

OKLCH, explained for designers
Last week, TailwindCSS released their v4 version with revamped color tokens using OKLCH. I forsee more web devs are going to adopt OKLCH as the new standard for color tokens. This might sound very technical, but it's actually a significant change UI/UX designer should be aware of. With major browsers now reaching 93.1% adoption rate, OKLCH is on track to be the new standard that bridges design and development. Most designers are familiar with RGB and HSL color spaces, but OKLCH is a new way of t
