About the final project for: UI design for beginners with Figma

UI Design for Beginners with Figma

“We came to the end of this Domestika course! Thank you so much for sticking with me through the whole process, I had a lot of fun creating this course and I hope it helped you in learning more about UI design and in developing your skills as a designer further. I highly encourage you to create a project different than mine, let me show you an example of how I would like to see your project development: The Brief and the Mood Boards Start by thoroughly reading and understanding a design brief. This brief will be your guiding star as you embark on a visual research journey. The goal is to gather inspiration and ideas, which you will then transform into two distinct mood boards using FigJam. These mood boards will serve as the creative foundation for our upcoming design explorations.

Design Experimentation With the mood boards as a base, move into the realm of design experimentation on Figma. This stage is where creativity meets practicality. Use the mood boards to guide your design explorations, playing with different elements to see what works best in bringing our UI vision to life.
Visual Direction Select one visual direction from your explorations. Refine and polish your explorations, transforming them into a coherent and visually stunning UI design. Take the leap into creating a UI Library – a reservoir of the design elements that brings consistency and efficiency to your workflow.
The Prototype Create a a usable and functional prototype. This prototype will be the tangible representation of all your learning and creativity, a showcase of how far you've come in mastering the art of UI Design. This step is more than just a conclusion; it's the bridge to the real-world application of our newly acquired skills.
Collaborating with other people is a very important part of this job, we have a community here on Domestika of people that took this course, and it’s awesome when you create a community and you can share your work and ideas. So, don't forget to upload your process and the final results. I'll give you some feedback as soon as I can, but in the meanwhile exchange, tips, tricks and feedback with your fellows! Can't wait to hear from you! See you soon. ”
