AI workflow for automated icon publishingLightricks · LTX Studio · 2026 Publishing a new icon to the design system meant a 12 to 15 step manual checklist. I automated it with AI and packaged it as a reusable skill. The design team adopted it, so every designer now publishes icons the same way.Build reusable AI workflows · Help teams adopt new ways of working How I build any toolMy own practice · Ongoing My repeatable way of building with an agent. It interviews me until it can write a detailed context file, keeps copy and design decisions in separate files, and logs each session so the next one picks up where the last stopped. I make the design calls; the agent fills the gaps. I have built my portfolio and a reporting dashboard this way.Agents beyond content generation · Repeatable frameworks

Stills: interactive designPersonal project · Ongoing Stills is me wanting to do a lot of things for the first time. It’s a home I made for all the pictures I’ve clicked on my film camera simulator.Rapidly prototype ideas into tangible interactions A fully functional, complex data dashboard with an AI agentReally Good Culture · 2026 I built the platform foundation and a working dashboard prototype on top in Next.js, with no engineering support so far. It lets us demo to the founder and iterate quickly, and it includes a fully customisable view where each person arranges their own data, with an AI agent in a side panel that retrieves the data they ask for.Rapidly prototype client-ready experiences Tutorial built in a collaborative sprintLightricks · Cursor + Claude Code · 2026 I pushed for hands-on, in-context learning over a standard walkthrough and won buy-in for it. I cut it from 12 steps to 5 and built it with an engineer in a collaborative sprint with Cursor and Claude Code, opening PRs for review.Ideas into tangible interactions Stills: sound designPersonal project · Ongoing This was my first time ever doing sound design. It’s all for Stills, the home I made for the pictures I’ve clicked on my film camera simulator.Rapidly prototype ideas into tangible interactions Newcastle filmsPersonal project My black and white photos from two days in Newcastle, turned into an audiovisual thing. The frames flip from negative to positive on the beat of the song. It’s a little spin-off of Stills, my film photo project, and it’s really made to be heard.Rapidly prototype ideas into tangible interactions DotsStippling text tool · Personal project I designed the letters in a typeface tool first. Then I built my own tool for everything else: bevel, feathering, motion, lighting, all in one place. I exported the video from there and finished the effects in Photoshop.Rapidly prototype ideas into tangible interactions

AI confidence indicatorGoogle Health · 2025 Meal recognition can mistake one lentil soup for another. I designed a high, medium and low confidence indicator so the uncertainty is visible and people can correct the model, instead of seeing its guess shown as fact. I pushed for photo logging as a priority launch feature, arguing that Gemini’s multimodal input would make logging faster and lift adoption. It shipped. Designed under data-privacy and responsible-use constraints.Design for human and AI behaviour Rating model outputsLightricks · LTX Studio · 2026 I was one of the raters scoring LTX’s model output on prompt adherence and quality, comparing outputs side by side. On the infinite canvas and node-based workspace, my focus was helping people prompt better and get what they want from a model.How models behave · Shaping what AI needs to play its role

Combining multimodal signals into 10 smart nutrition featuresGoogle Health · 2025 I designed 10 experimental features for what nutrition could become in the app, combining fitness, sleep and energy signals. They ranged from timing-based guidance, like a caffeine window, to goal-matched recipes with grocery delivery automated through third-party apps.Future-state experiences · Agents and automation Conversational loggingGoogle Health · 2025 One of the 6 meal-logging journeys I designed: tell the AI health coach what you ate, in your own words, and it logs the meal for you.Journeys · Rethink experiences for an AI-first world

Research into nutrition insight with NotebookLMGoogle Health · NotebookLM · 2025 I synthesised 6+ research studies and customer data into personas, user needs, and nutrition insights and recommendations, using NotebookLM to study the research.Turn data and research into insight Nutrition data visualisationGoogle Health · 2025 I designed 8 types of nutrition data visualisation, starting from the existing design system's patterns and adapting them before inventing new ones. New patterns only where the kit genuinely did not cover the case.Systems thinking · Making data readable

Attention-grabbing component strategy for AI launchesLightricks · LTX Studio · 2026 I audited the product's badges, popups and modals and wrote the framework LTX Studio uses to launch AI models and features: when to use a badge, dot badge, popup or modal. PMs and designers adopted it. I designed and shipped the dot badge.Repeatable frameworks · Raise the quality of AI work Design system hub, built with Claude CodeReally Good Culture · 2026 Three products had shipped straight to code with no shared design. I audited the live platform and set up the design workflow and file structure. I pulled what all three have in common (type, spacing and icons) into one shared base, then built a separate system on it for each product: the website, with its own display font; the app; and the dashboard, each with its own colours and components. I documented all of it in a hub I built with Claude Code.Systems thinking · Develop best practices Automating branded asset and document creationReally Good Culture · 2026 The design system, branding rules and templates go into Claude, which produces letterheads, PDFs, decks and changelogs that follow them every time.Repeatable frameworks · Systems thinking

How I work with ClaudeDay to day · Every project Claude Code for live prototypes and micro-interactions that run in the real product. Cursor for shipping code: 15+ PRs at Lightricks. The Claude API for my own tools. I have a CS degree and read the code an agent writes, so I catch and fix wrong output instead of passing it on.Deep hands-on experience with Claude DotsBuilt on Toolcraft My stippling text tool, built on Toolcraft, Pixel Point’s creative-tools framework. Toolcraft has no interface of its own, so this is what it looks like in use.Experiment with emerging tools and techniques A hand-tracked digital forestMemoryMint · AI video + TouchDesigner · 2025 The forest for MemoryMint. A friend illustrated it; I turned the illustration into video with AI, giving it a first frame and a last frame to move between, then laid a dither over the footage. It was then made interactive in TouchDesigner and driven by hand tracking.Experiment with emerging tools and techniques BrikShaders and visual effects · Ongoing Shader and visual-effects experiments in Brik, the kind of tool you use to build other tools.Experiment with emerging tools and techniques Font builderTypeface tool by Mark Do Circle is the tool I use to design typefaces on a grid. You paint each letter square by square and round off the corners. It’s made by Mark Do, and it’s honestly such a joy to make type with. Thank you, Mark!Experiment with emerging tools and techniques DoppioMotion design tool Doppio is a motion design tool, and honestly I just found it really cool.
