I’m a little late to the party with this one, but when you’re building a living, breathing AI with a short fuse, you don’t rush the process.
Designers, we’ve all been there: The logic is flawless. The grid is perfect. Then... the feedback arrives. "Can we make it more... blue-ish?"
Inner Designer is my latest experimental project that says what you can't. Built with Figma Make, a live backend, and an AI brain that actually understands design theory, it doesn’t just design—it defends.
The Hook: It explains its choices.
The Twist: It has a breaking point.
The Result: Push it too far with bad revisions, and the UI literally melts into frustration.
It’s part tool, part therapy, and a little too real.

Experimenting a lot with AI, one thing became clear: AI can match your design vision, but only if you are specific. Vague prompts = generic results.
So here is my current process using Figma Make, before I build anything, I ask AI to analyze the design language of a screenshot to build a design system first. Think of it as a style guide where colors, typography, and spacing are all locked in. Once that foundation is there, I use that same design system to build my application, website, whatever the project is.
The result? Way more consistent outputs and a lot less back and forth.
Style first, build later, makes total sense. Feels like treating AI as a junior designer instead of a magic box.
