In our organisation, in order to ship features, we use three different concepts in order to organise, shape and decide on what we need to do.

I have been ‘raised’ with no wireframing (agency)
- It doesn’t emphasise with people’s imagination
- Doesn’t work with content
- Clients don’t understand it
- Easy to use existing components.
- You have to design twice.
However, with AI building and work in product teams, wireframing is back.

Always nice to do some work on new color schemes for traffic lights, errors, information, scores and positive and negative charts.
Now using Tailwind CSS UIColors app, Figma internal color gradient tool and Contrast Tool.
What’s your color challenge?

Usually not a massive fan of a brand positioning and messaging, if the product is not of value or not solving problems. However, with AI models, it's the other way around.

Working on my personal website in Figma Sites!
Goal is to create a simple, referenceable place on the web, so I can share thoughts, ideas, projects, content and links to other places on the web where I represent myself!

That one piece of design that no one ever thinks about, but everyone knows about: Sick bags.
Why?
🍿 Extremly humble, but useful
1️⃣ Probably you used it at least once
✈️ Useful for all kinds of reasons while on-the-go.
There are tons of people collecting it (serious).

Playing around with Imagen 3 in Gemini, to create nice product shots of analog film 'newly used'.
Nice touches & so clear and done in 15 mins (or 6 iterations).

90% of organizations are relying on spreadsheets and similar tools for vital business data.
→ And those spreadsheets are:
Hard to reuse
Hard to share
Hard to scale
Hard to integrate.
→ So, even if your product & UX iterations are small, it’s probably helping business massively.

Today's recap for prioritising product improvements
🔂
1. When doing prioritisation in product, ask why it is a priority and where is the evidence coming from.
2. Don't assume that evidence is right, just 'I heared this before'
3. It should be around business goals, ARR, new wins, quantity, quotes.
