Today's design exploration started with a Dribbble inspiration piece.
Rather than copying it directly, I challenged myself to reinterpret the concept and experiment with a completely different visual direction.
The original inspiration uses vibrant blue and orange colors to create an energetic feel, while my version leans into a darker, more premium aesthetic.
A great exercise in studying design principles and then applying them through your own lens.
Question:
Which version do you prefer?

🚀 Design Direction Poll
I've been exploring two hero concepts for a digital marketing agency, both built around the same message:
"Your Goals. Bold Ideas. Big Results."
But each direction tells a very different story.
🌑 Concept A (Dark Mode)
A bold, high-contrast experience designed to feel premium, confident, and impactful.
☀️ Concept B (Light Mode)
A brighter, more energetic direction that feels approachable, innovative, and forward-thinking.
Vote below and share what influenced your decision—emotion, branding, trust, or overall visual appeal. 👇

both are lovely, but i went with the light concept–– it goes just a bit better with that little box you've got near the lower right corner, plus i think the shape + bold gradient it holds against the background is a really in-tune connection to how the subconscious mind (well,...
Buddi / A Fun Companion Game for Kids with ADHD

Figma X Contra challenge
Buddi gives kids a friend, not just a game. They pick their buddy, Lea or Leo and travel together across a world of islands, where every stop is a fun minigame secretly training a real skill: focus, memory, impulse control, patience.
And when a kid misses? No "wrong," no "game over." Their buddy misses with them, cheers them up, and says let's try again. Retrying gets celebrated, not punished.
Kids get a world map to explore, badges to collect, and a shop to dress up their buddy with stars they earn. Parents get their own gated dashboard to track behavior, moods, progress, and skill growth, all in plain language.
I built Buddi because I wanted both sides covered: kids get a fun educational game they actually love, and parents finally get a way to see how their child is really doing.
How I built it: research and structure with Claude → every screen designed in Figma → Lea, Leo, and the shop items illustrated in Figma Weave → living prototype in Figma Make, with Claude writing the Make prompts and the buddies' in-game dialogue. Design first, always.
A friend first. Everything good is hidden inside the friendship.
i hope you guys enjoy! and ill be glad to hear feedbacks from all of you!
This is so wholesome I love it !
