A week ago, I asked myself a simple question:
How do you actually train your design eye?
As a Webflow & Framer developer, I spend a lot of time implementing design decisions. But I became curious about the thinking behind those decisions and whether my own instincts aligned with experienced designers.
So I built EyeCheck.
A design perception experiment that explores typography, spacing, hierarchy, color, imagery, and visual judgment through a series of challenges.
What surprised me most while building it wasn't which answers people chose.
It was how often they disagreed.
Some decisions reached overwhelming consensus.
Others split almost perfectly down the middle.
And those conversations ended up being far more interesting than finding a "correct" answer.
Built for the #ConfigMakeathon using Figma.
I'd love to know:
Which question challenged your instincts the most?

How often they disagreed' — that's the real insight. Design perception is rarely black and white. Brilliant experiment!

Exactly. The gray areas in design are always the most fascinating to study.
