ブランディング用途でのAIツール活用事例。GPT Image 2にロゴをと参照画像をアップロードしイメージを伝えると、60秒以内にブランドキット全体が生成される。ClaudeとかCoworkの話が多いけど、ブランディングのコンセプティングで活躍しそうなのはこっち。無料プランでも使えるのが凄い。

Worse product. Better design.
Investors fund what looks fundable.
Your tech is better. Their presentation is.

I don’t charge for the 2 hours it took to UI design this page. I charge for the 12 years it took to learn how to do it in 2 hours.

Efficiency isn’t a discount. It’s a premium feature.

Experimenting with HALFTONE backgrounds for hero sections.

Made using Nano Banana Pro.

[Yasir Ahmad Noori @yasirahmadnoori]

This hero section feels way too premium

HALFTONE background made using Nano Banana Pro

designed in Figma

I love working with this style.

[Yasir Ahmad Noori @yasirahmadnoori]

A HALFTONE background can turn any hero into premium design.

Made with Nano Banana Pro. Designed in Figma.

I think I'm getting addicted to this style.

Design workouts without any doubt have become my favourite activities of the day.

Do whatever you like, whatever your imagination tells you, have fun, create. And screw everyone telling you this is fake design. Those people have never created anything in their lives and that’s why they’re so pissed.

Have a great one fam! 🖤

Minimalism + ASCII art feels illegal in motion design.

Built this inside @hiunicornstudio + @framer and I genuinely can’t stop staring at it.

Tech branding doesn't have to be boring.

Just open-sourced Open Design Skills 🚀

Your Claude Code still ships ugly web pages. With this design system, any landing page, slide deck, letter, resume, or portfolio gets a world-class, magazine-grade look ✉️.
