Taste Test
Same brief, same hero — me vs. Figma's Design Agent.
The Agent's is clean. Good type, nice mountain, decent copy. It also defaulted to bright white + near-black — both explicitly on this brand's "Never" list.
Mine is dark, warm, volcanic because the system demanded it. That's the job: AI gives you competent; a system gives you this brand and no other.

This week's Nobel in chemistry went to two scientists who spent decades chasing why life only uses one "molecular handedness" when chemistry allows for both.
Mix the ingredients for amino acids in a lab and you get a dead-even split, left-handed and right-handed versions in equal numbers. Every living thing on Earth only uses the left-handed kind. Kagan and Soai showed how that happens: a tiny random imbalance, fractions of a percent, starts catalyzing more of itself. Once one version has the slightest edge, it snowballs into near-total dominance.
I think about that every time I open a design system that's drifted. Nobody decided the whole site would end up with one specific border radius on every card. Someone used it once, early, before anyone agreed on a rule. The next person copied the nearest existing component instead of starting fresh. Now there's no vote left to take, just a hundred instances of one choice that happened to come first.
What's the one token in your design system nobody remembers actually deciding on?

Figma to lovable by connecting MCP
One prompt. One Figma file. A working website. 👀
So, what did I actually do here?
I analyzed how AI interprets UI designs, how it understands layer names, and how naming conventions affect the generated output.
Then I structured my Figma file accordingly and gave Lovable a single prompt.
And honestly? It nailed it.
No complicated back-and-forth. Just a better-structured design and a smarter workflow.

This experiment reminded me that AI-assisted design isn’t just about writing better prompts. It’s also about preparing our designs so AI can understand them.
Designers, are you optimizing your Figma files for AI yet?
