Day 4–5 | Phase 2: Ideation & Iteration ⚡

This phase was all about turning ideas into visuals and finding faster ways to iterate.

I started by taking my hand-sketched wireframes into Figma Make to explore different directions and layouts. Instead of using the outputs as final screens, I treated them as inspiration to refine the experience.

Alongside that, I had another challenge: creating the personality of Access Atlas.

I had a rough idea and a few 2D references for the AI companion, but wanted it to feel more alive. That became my first real experiment with Figma Weave.

Using Weave's node system, I tested multiple prompt paths and ran them through different LLMs to transform the initial concept into a 3D mascot that matched the look and feel I wanted.

That was when I realised the potential of the workflow.

Then came the next challenge: icons.

I wanted a clean, consistent set of 3D accessibility icons, but the ones I needed were too specific and didn't exist.

So I built my own.

The Weave Workflow

→ Defined style, camera angle, colour palette, and visual language → Ran the brief through 3 prompt enhancers simultaneously → Refined one final prompt → Tested it across 4 LLMs in parallel → Selected one icon as the master reference → Created a variable prompt system (Wheelchair → Elevator → Escalator → etc.) → Generated a complete icon family in the same style

This workflow dramatically reduced repetitive work and made iteration much faster.

Phase 2 is almost complete.

From sketches → concepts → mascot → custom icon system
