The Problem

Inspiration is essential, but the process of finding it is often frustrating

• Too much time spent switching between tabs and platforms

• Inspiration sources scattered across multiple websites

• Difficulty translating inspiration into usable design references

• No simple way to organize inspiration per project

Instead of fueling creativity, inspiration hunting was slowing designers down

The Goal

My goal was simple:

Design a lightweight Figma plugin that helps designers discover, save, and use inspiration without leaving Figma.

The plugin needed to feel:

• Fast

• Visual

• Minimal

• Focused on real design workflows

The Audience

This tool was designed for:

• Product and UI/UX designers

• Freelancers working across multiple projects

• Designers in early ideation stages

• Design students learning visual patterns

My Role

I handled the project end to end:

• Product thinking and UX decisions

• Feature definition

• User flows and interaction design

• UI design and prototyping in Figma

The Solution

I designed a curated inspiration plugin that brings high-quality design references directly into the Figma canvas.
