A week ago, I asked myself a simple question:
How do you actually train your design eye?
As a Webflow & Framer developer, I spend a lot of time implementing design decisions. But I became curious about the thinking behind those decisions and whether my own instincts aligned with experienced designers.
So I built EyeCheck.
A design perception experiment that explores typography, spacing, hierarchy, color, imagery, and visual judgment through a series of challenges.
What surprised me most while building it wasn't which answers people chose.
It was how often they disagreed.
Some decisions reached overwhelming consensus.
Others split almost perfectly down the middle.
And those conversations ended up being far more interesting than finding a "correct" answer.
Built for the #ConfigMakeathon using Figma.
I'd love to know:
Which question challenged your instincts the most?

How often they disagreed' — that's the real insight. Design perception is rarely black and white. Brilliant experiment!

FrameOrbit is a playful camera canvas experience where taking photos feels more spatial, visual, and alive.
The idea started from a simple question:
What if captured photos didn’t disappear into a hidden gallery, but stayed around your camera as part of the experience?
In FrameOrbit, the camera view sits in the center of a soft canvas. Every time the user captures a photo, it instantly appears as a framed image around the camera. As more photos are taken, the canvas starts to build a visual orbit of moments around the live camera view.
Users can:
Capture photos directly from the center camera frame
See each image appear instantly around the canvas
Apply different photo styles like Normal, Noir, Warm, Cool, Vivid, Fade, Retro, and Neon
Drag photos around the canvas
Tap any photo to open it in a cinematic full-screen viewer
Move between images using previous/next navigation
Save all captured images or reset the canvas
The goal was to make photo capturing feel less like a utility and more like a small creative ritual, a live memory board that grows with every shot.
Built with Figma Make, I focused on creating a polished interactive prototype with a soft visual system, floating photo cards, smooth viewer experience, and a simple flow that can be understood in seconds:
Capture → frame appears → build your orbit → explore your moments.
FrameOrbit turns the camera into a canvas. ✨

Clarity is Creative | Visual Thinking
A strong design doesn't compete for attention it earns it through clarity. This concept explores how clean typography, intentional hierarchy, and focused messaging create visuals that are both impactful and memorable.
