Most designers focus on how it looks.
The best designers obsess over how it feels.
I've seen stunning interfaces users abandon in 10 seconds.
I've seen simple designs users can't stop coming back to.
The difference was never the visuals.
It was the feeling.
Nobody remembers the color palette.
They remember whether your product felt effortless or frustrating.
That's what great UX actually is.
Are you designing for how it looks or how it feels? 👇
Good work

I studied the world’s best mobile patterns on Mobbin. From health rings to social matching, to build a research-backed moodboard. I was inspired by apps like Greg, Apple Health, Shop and Bumble. I translated these high-end UX behaviors into a cohesive design system that prioritizes clarity and local trust.
Then I jumped with all my ideas into Figma Make. Here it comes Pottr, a fusion between quantified plant health with a social graph. It includes plant care tracking but it doesn't stop there. It’s an ecosystem where you match with neighbors based on shared plants, trade seeds or tools, and request community care when you travel. It’s a premium, hyperlocal take on sustainability with custom branding and a neighborhood "open-world" map.
wow crina this is so amazing
Curious: What’s missing in most brand systems, in your opinion?
For me, the brand guidelines system we develop at Heed Collective must be a living document — one that supports the brand in real decision-making, across teams, contexts, and moments of growth.
Building structures that guide how a brand behaves, adapts, and scales across every touchpoint.
What makes it work:
— decision-making logic, not just rules
— flexible systems, not static files
— consistency with room to evolve
We don’t launch brands — we build culture for humans, ethically.
And one thing we always add:
→ Brand Culture Layer — translating strategy into how the brand speaks, acts, and shows up in the world.
Awesome!
I design Framer websites that do more than look futuristic — they solve real business problems.
Clear structure, strong visuals, smooth interactions, and purposeful UX that helps brands stand out and perform.
Framer designer. Strategic thinker. Problem solver.
Great work!
