What
Squeeze is a dead-simple image compression app that runs entirely in your browser. Drop in any image, and it gets compressed, converted, and resized in seconds; nothing ever leaves your device.
Instead of a spinner, Squeeze shows a silky-smooth visual breakdown of the compression: detail layers, color fields, luminance, metadata; so you see exactly what's happening, frame by frame.

Why
Designers deal with heavy images all day. Existing tools are either ugly, slow, or require uploads. Squeeze answers one question: what if compressing an image felt as good as the image itself?
Fast, private, and beautiful.
Who
For designers who care about both file size and visual quality, whether you're optimizing web assets, preparing a handoff, or just making a file small enough to send.
How
Figma Design agent – generated a rough draft. I polished the UI/UX, then had the agent build a component and variable library from my design.
Figma MCP + Cursor – Rebuilt the component and style libraries one-to-one in code, laying a solid foundation.
Figma Make – Brought the code back via GitHub connector, refined the UI and animations, and published.
The visual breakdown of the compression process is such a smart UX decision. Most tools hide that complexity, but showing the layers, color fields, and luminance frame by frame actually makes it feel more trustworthy. Fast, private, and beautiful is a great north star for a utility tool.
I love the UI

A look at the identity we designed for Vetti, a dog health monitoring brand.
There’s a lot of data behind a product like this but the person using it just wants to know their dog is okay.
That’s the balance in the design with a connected dot system that feels precise and warm colors and photography that keep it close to what people care about.
Also, an excellent excuse to spend far too long choosing dog photos.

The restraint in the warm palette really lets the sound-object concept breathe—especially that shift from readable type to atmosphere.
