Project update: Neon Finance Design Exploration
One thing I always do before committing to a final direction is explore at least two distinctly different approaches. Not variations of the same idea — genuinely different visual languages.
For the Neon.Finance hero section, here's what that looked like:
Direction A Geometric abstraction
Clean shapes in the background. Minimal. Precise. The visual language of a product that is structured, reliable, and data-driven. Strong choice for a B2B fintech audience that values clarity over warmth.
Direction B Landscape photography
An open landscape mountains, mist, space. Unexpected for finance. But emotionally it aligns with the product's promise: calm, clarity, control over your money. More human. More memorable.
The client chose Direction B. It performed better in feedback because it made people feel something before they read a word.
This exploration process is built into how I work. You don't just get a final design from me you get thinking behind it.
If you're looking for a designer who asks "what should this feel like?" before asking "what should this look like?" I'd love to work on your project.

Project: Neon Finance Hero Section Design
The brief: Design a landing page hero for a business finance platform that feels different from every other fintech on the market trustworthy, but not stiff.
My thinking: I didn't want to open with abstract shapes or stock photography of people pointing at laptops. I wanted the visitor to feel something the moment they land calm, clarity, control. Those are the feelings a good financial tool should give you.
So I used a wide landscape photograph mountains fading into mist as the background. It's unexpected for fintech, but it works because it's emotionally aligned with the product's promise: your finances, finally under control.
The dashboard mockup sits over the landscape so visitors see the actual product immediately. No guessing what it is. And the subheadline does the real job it names the exact pain ("juggling spreadsheets, chasing invoices, guessing cash flow") before asking for anything.
Key decisions:
→ Landscape bg — calm and expansive, not corporate
→ Product mockup above the fold — proof before promises
→ Pain-first subheadline — speaks to the user before selling to them
→ Two CTAs — "Start For Free" (primary) and "See How It Works" (for the cautious visitor)
→ Social proof bar (logos) immediately below — trust before scroll

Integrations Screen — Neon Finance (http://Neon.Finance)
One of the most underestimated screens in any SaaS product is the integrations page. Users land here when they're ready to commit, they want to connect their tools and trust the platform with their data. Get this screen wrong and they bounce. Get it right and they feel like the product was built for them.
My approach for Neon Finance (http://Neon.Finance) was to make every integration feel familiar. GTBank, Paystack, Flutterwave, Jumia, Konga, Zohobook these aren't random tools. They're the exact stack a Nigerian business owner already lives in. Seeing them listed here, with real logos and clear connection states, turns a product feature into a moment of recognition: "this was built for me."
Key decisions on this screen:
The stat bar at the top 3 apps connected, 1,284 records synced, last sync 10 minutes ago answers the user's anxious question before they ask it: "Is my data safe and up to date?" Yes. And it tells you exactly when.
The filter tabs (All / Banking / Payments / Accounting / E-Commerce) let users scan only what's relevant to them. No scrolling through irrelevant tools.
The card layout keeps every integration at visual parity — no tool feels more important than another, which keeps the UI honest.
Connected vs. unconnected states are distinct but not aggressive. "Connected ✓" in green is calm, not celebratory. It just says: this is done.

Project: Neon Finance (http://Neon.Finance) Fintech Dashboard UI
The brief: Design a financial dashboard that gives business owners a clear, real-time view of their money balance, income, expenses, profit, cash flow, and invoices without cognitive overload.
My approach: Financial data is inherently dense. My priority was hierarchy over decoration. I made the account balance the single most prominent element on the page. Every other metric supports it. The dark sidebar creates a navigation layer that never competes with the content. I used green sparingly only to indicate positive change so when it appears, it carries meaning.
Key design decisions:
→ Two-tone layout (dark nav, white content) for instant spatial clarity
→ Balance card with hide/show toggle privacy for sensitive environments
→ Quick-action buttons (Add Money, Transfer) within the balance card zero navigation needed for the most common actions
→ Metric row scannable in under 2 seconds

Project: Worka — Handyman Booking Platform
The brief: Design a web platform that helps Nigerians find and book skilled handymen fast plumbing, carpentry, painting, and more.
My approach: I started with the user's core need speed and trust. The hero section was designed to answer two questions instantly: "What is this?" and "What do I do next?" I used strong typographic hierarchy, a search-first layout, and real photography of the workers to build immediate credibility.
Key design decisions:
→ Bold, high-contrast headline with a green accent on "Handymen" to anchor the eye
→ Search bar as the primary CTA — lower friction than a button
→ Grid of worker photos to humanise the platform before the user scrolls
→ Clean nav with only 3 items — nothing to distract from booking

Part 2. The messaging screen.
This is where most service apps die.
Not because messaging doesn't work. But because getting TO the messages feels like solving a puzzle.
This? Brain-dead simple. Job list. Message preview. Tap. Done.
I've watched people abandon platforms because responding took four taps and two back buttons. They just stopped opening the app.
Your users have 6% of their brain available. The other 94% is thinking about dinner or whether they left the stove on.
Design for the 6%.
Message previews? Decide what's urgent without breaking flow. Embedded in job flow? No mental gymnastics. Search at top? Find clients fast.
Question: What's an app you love DESPITE terrible UX? One you use because you have to, not because it's pleasant?
Working with founders who want products people actually enjoy using.

Most marketplace apps fail the parking lot test.
Can someone use your app in their car, coffee in one hand, deciding which job to take before driving off?
This handyman interface passes that test.
Job cards show what matters: client, service, time, location, status. One tap to view. One tap to message. Done.
I design for real contexts. The contractor between appointments. The worker planning their day at 5:45 AM. The person with dirty hands who can't unlock their phone three times.
If your app needs two hands and full attention, that's not a user problem it's a design problem.
I build mobile experiences for the real world, not just Figma. Apps people open 10 times a day, not once a week.

Your onboarding flow is probably killing conversions.
After auditing 47 products, the data is clear: users drop off after 3 steps.
Not 5. Not 7. Three.
Here's why most teams get this wrong:
They assume users need context before they can do anything useful. So they build long flows account setup, profile completion, preferences, tutorials.
But users don't care about your setup process. They care about solving their problem.
The fix? Show value before asking for commitment.
For a project tool, that's not "create workspace" or "invite team." It's checking off a task.
If your product asks for more than 3 things upfront, you're losing people who would've converted.

Most booking platforms are designed by people who've never rushed to book something at 11 PM before an event.
This space rental platform gets out of your way. Location, dates, guests, search—done. No five-step wizard. No "create account to see prices" nonsense.
I build for real scenarios. The stressed event planner with 48 hours to find a venue. The property owner checking dashboards between meetings. The team lead searching for an offsite space on their commute.
Your users aren't in a lab. They're distracted, in a hurry, probably on their phone. Design for that reality.
If your booking platform fights users instead of helping them, we should talk. I specialize in turning complicated journeys into simple, obvious paths.
Open for projects that need strategic UX, not just visual polish.

Real talk: This handyman platform proves you don't need 47 features to win.
One strong value prop. Clear visuals. Simple booking flow. Done.
I've spent years stripping away the noise from interfaces – helping products go from "looks nice" to "actually converts." This one converts because it respects the user's time and intelligence.
Your service business doesn't need a complicated website. It needs one that makes hiring you the obvious choice.
If your platform feels like it's working against you instead of for you, that's a design problem. And design problems have design solutions.
Open for projects that need strategic UX thinking, not just pretty screens. Let's build something that performs.

The closing sections of Obelisk’s landing page focus on human proof and thoughtful conversation. Testimonials emphasise clarity and transparency, while the final CTA is designed as a review, not a forced commitment.
This is how I approach landing page design for high-ticket products and long-term decisions. Calm structure, clear UX thinking, and trust built gradually through design and copy working together.
If you’re building a climate tech, fintech, or complex product where credibility matters, I help teams with product design and UX design create digital experiences that convert through confidence, not pressure.

Following the hero section, the next priority was trust.
For Obelisk, that meant showing numbers early, addressing hesitation directly, and treating users like decision-makers — not leads in a funnel.
The value dashboard is designed to answer the questions people actually have before committing to solar:
How much do I need? What does this look like long term? What are the tradeoffs?
This is where conversion happens not through urgency, but through understanding.

Hero-first thinking.
Many solar landing pages jump straight into product, savings, or CTA buttons. For Obelisk, we flipped the script.
The hero doesn’t sell it frames a worldview: energy independence is personal, it’s long-term, and it starts with understanding the home and habits, not pushing products.
Design + copy + imagery, all working quietly together to build trust. That’s how a landing page becomes more than a marketing page.
