New (good) styles just get insta-copied 4000x by broccoli bros and "did I cook" posts. The half-life of any design trend is ~3 days now. Stick with classic, well executed, design.. Unless, you're good enough to be first on something new and execute it well (like 0.2% of ppl).

A design trend I’m hoping fades out by the end of the year… → Isometric product UI designs 😅 It was only cool when Linear did it.



Lighting needs some work but not bad for a 15 minute modelling exercise. Lime phone? 🤷

Writing is one of the greatest thing in life. The fulfillment is greater than most materialistic things. Do not outsource your personal work to AI. Write even if you're bad at it. At least it's the real you. Don't give away the thing that makes you.

Hmm. Inverted or not? 🤔


Most people should be putting out a lot less "content". I much prefer my "content" to actually have content.

Can I add 3d & motion designer to my design engineer skill stack in less than 3 months? We're going to find out. 😅


The most wonderful aspect of humanity is that desire to create. An idea, a photograph, a sandcastle, a 600 page book on llama farming, a life. Never stop listening to that voice that tells you to make. Even if it sucks. Make. Even if AI does it better. Make.

Is there a world in which I can just make cool shit for people to use in their designs or designs for their clients? Like an illustrator but also do the photography, photoshop stuff as well? I want that job.

Finally, a FramerFriday I can celebrate. 2y 10m 7d 21h 62m 32s and 7 tries This long it took me to get a Framer template published in the marketplace. It's free. So no giveaways. No virality. Happy Friday! Link below.


What people don't get about "vibe coding" is that it isn't a "just tell AI to build something" tool. It's still very much dev work, or at least knowing the language of development and providing A LOT of structure and guardrails for the AI to operate in.

I spent 3 hours vibe coding a halftone shader. I tried to prompt and explain it from many different perspectives, but, I couldn't get it right. I stepped back, wrote the foundations of it by hand, and then vibe coded the bits that i needed a bit of help with, and voila. One…
