I recently spent time exploring the intersection of retro-tech aesthetics and modern UI. This MP3 player concept was a deep dive into skeuomorphic design within Figma, focusing heavily on realistic lighting, material textures, and shadows to create a tactile, hardware-inspired feel.
A significant portion of the process was dedicated to perfecting the light refraction and button depth to ensure the design felt like a physical prototype rather than just a flat UI.
Key focus areas:
• Lighting & Shading: Achieving a brushed-metal finish using layered gradients.
• UX/UI: Balancing physical button layouts with a clean digital interface.
• Visual Storytelling: A nod to the golden era of 90s hip-hop.
