Interesting perspective on what happens when building software becomes almost free.
AI tools make it incredibly easy to generate interfaces and prototypes, but the real challenge is still deciding what is actually worth building.
As a designer, I like the fact that we can test ideas faster and show real interactions instead of static screens.
But good UX still comes from understanding users, not from generating more features.
Building things faster is powerful. But taste, restraint, and user empathy are probably becoming even more valuable now.

When building is free, what’s worth building?
AI coding tools are rewriting who gets to make software. The question isn’t whether that’s good. It’s what it does to the things we use…

I got accepted into something rare 🫢
A network where human taste shapes AI, for real.
Most AI tools are built to be fast, but a few are built to be good.
That distinction matters more than we think.
I just joined @Contra Labs, the frontier human data and evaluation lab helping make AI better for creativity by centering the one thing algorithms can't fake:

Congrats, friend! This is amazing!
What if your blockchain landing page actually felt like the future?
For Luntra Infrastructure, we designed a high-end landing page experience with a strong Web3 narrative and premium 3D animation.
The goal was to communicate complex value fast:
AI-powered security, OP Stack performance, Ethereum compatibility — all presented through clean hierarchy, sharp typography, and cinematic depth.
We structured the experience around what builders care about most:
Gaming, Apps, DeFi, and Enterprise — each section designed to feel modular, scalable, and “built for builders.”
Completed via our design subscription.

Most websites fail before a single pixel gets designed.
They fail in the brief. "Make it modern. Make it clean. Make it feel like... name any competitor"
That's not a brief, it's a mood board pretending to be a strategy.. We just shipped a Framer site for an AI company.
And we didn't open Framer for 3 weeks, just locked positioning, who's the buyer, what makes them stop scrolling, what objection hits first and what proof kills it.
Then we wrote the site before we designed it, because every section needs a job.
Built the whole thing in Framer in 10 days because the strategy was already done and there were no debates around copy, structure or style. just implementitaion.
Then 2 more days on the final layer with scroll animations, micro interactions, page transitions. That's what turns a good site into one people actually remember.
Fastest way to build a website is to not start with the website.
Love the colors 🎨
