The demand for work that feels distinct, thoughtful, and human has never been higher.

In a world of generic templates, pre-built systems, and AI-generated designs, visual design is a superpower.

Tools have lowered the barrier, anyone can create. But when everyone uses the same tools, it’s vision and craft that make the difference.

You’ll make incredible things if you let go of trends and reference moodboards.

Create what feels right for you. Pick that direction that feels a little too experimental.

Become a trend setter.

Don’t apply every piece of feedback.
Most of it just reflects someone else’s taste.
Especially in visual design. Trust your own.
