An interactive poster built with Figma Make that transforms design history into a tangible experience.
Instead of hiding iteration behind an undo shortcut, this project allows users to scrub through stages from draft to final — making creative progression visible and experiential.
Thank you 😊

Can you believe I made this in seconds in Figma Make? 👀
Okay… not the final design. But the concept? Yes.
I’m currently building a digital product, and this is how I explore ideas before committing to the actual design.

🟡 Figma Make isn’t replacing design thinking. It’s helping me move faster in the messy early stage.
🟡 Instead of starting from a blank canvas, I can test structure, layout, and direction quickly — then refine everything intentionally inside Figma.
🟡 Exploration first. Design decisions second. ✨
Would you try this workflow?
Experimenting a lot with AI, one thing became clear: AI can match your design vision, but only if you are specific. Vague prompts = generic results.
So here is my current process using Figma Make, before I build anything, I ask AI to analyze the design language of a screenshot to build a design system first. Think of it as a style guide where colors, typography, and spacing are all locked in. Once that foundation is there, I use that same design system to build my application, website, whatever the project is.
The result? Way more consistent outputs and a lot less back and forth.
Style first, build later, makes total sense. Feels like treating AI as a junior designer instead of a magic box.
