Prototyping used to scare me. So I tried to escape it. I remember when I first started designing in Figma, prototyping felt like a mountain I didn’t want to climb. It was that one thing most designers quietly avoided some even said it’s not necessary 😄. I searched for…

Can I help 10 struggling techies today with 10K each for fuel or data so you don’t quit.. You’re not here because it’s easy. You’re here because you’ve got vision.. Most people stop at ideas, you build them. You’re balancing work, Nepa, Traffic, insecurity, school, family, and…

It always looks perfect in Figma… until the developer touches it.

I’ve worked with some designers, two in particular, who are at some of the biggest companies in the world. Trust me, there’s nothing magical about what they do that you can’t do too. A lot of us come online and throw around big design terms like “user-focused this” and…

Please don’t give up yet. Feel free to take some time off but don’t give up.. One last push might break the ice. Keep showing up even with the 2 likes. All you need is for just one person to see it. Visibility is your new currency don’t waste it.

Simplicity is not my style, it’s my way of solving complexity. So I picked nexigo.com and turned it into this 👇. Someone mentioned I should do something for desktop. Will post the animated part of this design along side with the tutorial soon. #DesignInspiration…

Step away from Figma for a moment let’s talk by 1:00pm EST today.

Truth is, every video I post is a client trap and most of you aren’t setting yours right. So I’m spilling the tea 🍵 on IG. Short clips. Real strategies. Wanna stop begging for gigs and start attracting them? Follow 👉 bit.ly/463dX99 Can’t post this stuff on LinkedIn.…

I started a simple UX audit on an online payment app (name withheld for now)…. but what I’m uncovering is wild. This was supposed to stay surface-level, but the deeper I dig, the more insane it gets. I’m putting together a video to show you what really goes on behind the scenes,…

Design is problem-solving…….. Funny how the biggest problem is always the brief.

☕ Just designed a coffee machine in Figma because… well, my brain said “do it” and I didn’t argue. Not solving UX problems. Not building the future of caffeine. Just out here wireframing espresso 🤪 like it’s a SaaS dashboard. Swipe your card, choose your cup size, select…

So had to add the wallet effect to PayPal current design. 🐣

I’m all for design principles. But sometimes, you have to break them, with purpose. I break it all down (with examples) in my latest case study: 👇 lnkd.in/eyZ3n6kd #UXDesign #ProductDesign #RealWorldUX #DesignDecisions #CaseStudy

One thing as a designer you don’t really have control over is being underrated. But that’s totally fine it happens. What you do next with it is totally up to you. Most people still feel design is an option until broken UX costs them money, users, or trust. Or maybe they just…

I once worked with a designer who seemed to constantly be on the lookout for flaws in my work. No matter what I delivered, he always found something to criticize often in a way that felt more personal than constructive. One of his recurring complaints was: “Hey Kingsley, could…

I’ve met so many founders who say this one thing: “Good design never hides.” Just the other day, someone from Google goes, “Hey, you’re Kingsley, right?” We were meant to discuss a project, but the convo shifted to how much he admires my work. That’s the power of showing up…
