The Figma Makeathon launches tomorrow at 9am PST - set your alarms, there’s up to $100K in prizes.
Join this page now to be one of the first to access this year’s guidelines & challenges.
This year’s Makeathon will highlight how Figma Make, paired with your taste and creativity, can unlock ideas that shape culture. We’re so excited to see what you create!
In the meantime, learn more about Figma Make here.
The last Figma Make challenge was amazing and I'm certain this would top that. Excited to explore ideas and see amazing submissions from the creative Contra community
100k? Im in!
Are we getting figmà premium for this ?
Guidelines say "After joining, check your confirmation email from Contra and click the access code link to unlock Figma Make." But I haven't received email after joining. Is it same with you?
Hi Updesh! I see the email was sent to you just after 4pm EST today. Can you check your inbox?
Yes! Once you click "Join" you will receive an email with a link to redeem a free upgrade.
This sounds fun, I'm gonna give it a try!
Is only one submission allowed per participant, or can participants submit multiple ideas or multiple Figma Make files?
You can create multiple submissions but be sure to follow the guidelines for each!
Excited for this Makeathon! I bring strong hands-on experience with Figma Make and have already built and launched a Figma plugin: @Figma @Contra HQ @Zoë Colivas
LETS GOOO
is this more mobile-first? since the design interaction examples (https://www.figma.com/blog/software-is-culture/ ) are all mobile interactions

Software Is Culture
Yesterday’s software has shaped today’s generation. To understand what’s next as software grows more intelligent, we look back on 20 years of interaction design.
Last event was 🔥
Can’t wait for the upcoming Figma × Contra event — expecting bigger energy and even more fun! 🚀✨
Looking forward
I always got this error in figma make. Anybody knows how to fix this?
Hey Gui! Are we allowed to feed the AI frames that were built by hand, or is this strictly prompts only?
let gooo 🔥
Looking forward to this years own
so excited for this one! I actually have enough time to dedicate to this over the coming few days/week unlike with previous challenges. Really hopeful that you'll find me submission 'interesting'
Hey @Zoë Colivas Just wanted to check as some of us haven't received the email confirmation from Contra for the access code link to Figma Make, thank you!
Same here! No email and no code😟
Joined some hours ago, but haven't received email or access to figma premium yet
Excited to try this. 😍
I get the e-mail from Contra, But didn't get access code link to unlock Figma.
I have joined and not received the email from Contra about the unlimited credits with Figma Make.
i have not received my figma premium
Is 2nd march the last date to register or submit?
Hello,
I’ve just used up all of my premium AI credits, but I still haven’t received the email with the code to top them up. Could you look into this and let me know what I should do?
Thank you.
Hi Dimitri,
Can you try redeeming the code on a new Figma account? It's possible the code wasn't applied to the existing one.
Please let me know if that works.
Nice one
So once daily credits are exhausted, the chatbox is not accessible anymore even though I have credits left from the free upgrade. Is it feature by design or ?
Hi Zoë!
I don't I've received the email after joining as well.
Thanks!
Hi Figma Support,
I am participating in the Figma and Contra hackathon and received a link to upgrade to a Professional team for the contest. While I claimed the promotion and it showed "successful," the Pro features aren't showing up on my new team, "Contra contest file." When I...
Hi! I have yet to receive my email for Figma Make 😞 @Zoë Colivas
What if I built a web app with real AI?
Wait. I'm not happy.
What if we invent a completely new way to interact? Zero hands.

New to posting in Contra! Breaking the ice with a Brand Identity Battle ⚔️
A furniture startup, Korven, recently hired us to build their visual world. Their mission? High-end, sculptural wooden furniture (starting with these Noguchi-esque coffee tables) at an attainable price point ($180–$200 USD). They’re launching with coffee tables but have a roadmap to expand into side tables and full architectural wood elements.
The Dilemma:
We’re split on the visual strategy. Bold, geometric and authoritative vs rounded, modern and tactile.
The Question:
When a product looks like a $2,000 sculpture but costs $200, which identity builds more trust?
👇 Vote A or B. If the answer is "Neither," tell us why. Be brutal!
