Process path

1

Project Direction

Set clear business and design priorities upfront,
defining what to solve, what to ignore, and what
success should look like before opening Figma.

Market Research

Analysed local and global coffee brands
to uncover authenticity signals, generic
conventions, and key points of differentiation.

Brand Identity

Designed a brand that doesn’t decorate the
space, but amplifies it—translating tattoo
culture and specialty coffee into a single,
credible voice.

IA Structure

Built an intent-driven information architecture
enabling coffee and tattoo to coexist, later
extended with an admin layers for operations.

Wireframing

Used wireframes to lock decisions on hierarchy,
density, and tone early, treating layout
and copy as one system, not separate layers.

UI System

Built a UI system that actively guides
behavior where components, states,
and interactions reduce friction instead
of adding polish.

Prototyping

Used the prototype to stress-test the product,
expose operational gaps, and expand the
system beyond the initial design scope.

User Validation

Validated assumptions through task-based
testing, focusing on real actions rather
than opinions or aesthetic feedback.

AI Usage

Used AI to accelerate thinking and
iteration, not to outsource decisions or
dilute design accountability.
