Pure UX Dopamine with Northstar Grid's Mega Menu ⚡
A crisp, well-structured mega menu is pure dopamine for a designer. There is nothing quite like taking a massive, complex B2B tech ecosystem and turning it into an absolute masterclass in visual hierarchy.
These fresh desktop navigation variants for Northstar Grid are all about creating that flawless, friction-free user flow. When you are dealing with deep tech, your navigation acts as the ultimate map, if it’s messy, users drop off immediately.
How these variants deliver that clean structure:
Categorized Architecture: Streaming dense platform features into three intuitive buckets—Product, Operations, and Technology—to completely remove user guesswork.
Micro-Copy Alignment: Pairing custom, minimal iconography with precise sub-labels to clear up ambiguity before a user even hovers.
The Promo Real Estate: Designing two layout options for the right-hand featured block (a bold, dark image container versus a minimal light card) to anchor high-intent platform conversions.
Tools & Stack:
Figma (UX/UI Structure)
Framer (Responsive component layout)

Hi Contra 👋
I'm Anastasiia, a UI/UX designer, and this is my first post here.
I've been in design for almost two years, and lately I've been working on a SaaS product for project and team management. It's been one of those projects that made me think deeply about collaboration, structure, and how to make complex workflows feel simple and intuitive.
I'm currently at the finish line, refining the last details, and I thought this would be the perfect time to share a first look.
Excited to be here, connect with other creatives, and share more of my journey along the way 😍
Amazing work! Welcome on Contra 😍
Hi everyone! 👋 Sharing a case study from my portfolio.
It's a learning platform called Students Hub, where all of a student's courses live in one place: lessons, homework, notes, schedule - no switching between a dozen different apps.
Worked through the full UX cycle: research, wireframes, usability testing, and final UI with a design system.
Details in the case study 👇
what a clean and airy work!
