I’ve designed 20 fintech websites. Most designers don't realise designing for fintech is TOUGH. Those Dribbble mockups fall apart the second real users touch them. Those crazy colours/gradients would never build trust. Buttons can't seem too salesy. There's no room for any…


I had a fintech client I designed for with a failing business model. So I helped them find a new product market fit. The initial idea was to let professionals moving to the US open bank accounts before arrival and activate them once they started working. But COVID hit, and the…


I had to make a tough decision in my design career: Take medium-paid design projects. Or a low-paying intership at a huge design agency with world-class clients. The more I thought about it, the more I saw how easy this decision was. Working with enterprise clients would…

I swear, if the app's onboarding sucks, even great design won't save it. It's funny because bad onboarding happens in most products on the market. I was redesigning a fintech app, and onboarding had tons of problems. Here's what I found: (4 problems are very common): -…

Website for Sable (they've been acquired), love the motion design on this.


Designers love 1-week brand sprints. But brands that last aren't built in a week. I've seen up close what goes into building world-class brands like Red Bull, Google, Disney, and Mastercard: months of research, testing, and iteration. That's why for my client's brand, I took 60…

Brand design by CAPRI

As a designer, I worked with Mastercard, Airbnb, Disney, and Red Bull. These are 4 lessons I’ve learned from them (and applied them while running my design agency): 1. User first, always. 2. Systems over screens – the power of a design system. 3. Branding is all about emotions…


I added motion design to my client's fintech product, and it looks 100x better. It makes it feel so premium.


I designed for worldwide companies like Google, Airbnb, MasterCard, and RedBull. Now, it’s been 4 years running my design studio. My fav projects so far: - Seen Finance (fintech) - Docmux (AI PDF tool) - NDA project for a Saudi Arabian company (private investment) - Sable…
