Dribbble exists to help designers generate and convert leads. Our success depends on increasing both the number of designers who receive leads and the number of leads each designer receives. Designers will share their work, advertise their services, and transact through the platform only if they expect to land more clients as a result.
Across higher education globally, institutions are reimagining how to prepare students for a digital-first world. As part of that movement, Adobe is proud to recognize the inaugural Adobe Creative Campus Innovators — nine standout universities selected by Adobe that are leading the way in engaging students deeply with Adobe’s creativity, productivity, and AI tools across disciplines.
Motion is critical for how a product feels. It guides attention, reinforces brand personality, and can make an interface feel more responsive. Motion has been a core part of my design process, going way back to the days when Principle was king.
There’s some fun computational geometry in my latest artwork, and in this article I’ll walk through how I take a scramble of disconnected paths and turn them into closed shapes, using half-edges and a planar graph.
To create self-serve templates that bend—but don’t break—brand designers need to consider work through a marketing lens. Here’s how to set up editing guardrails and design layouts that flex and scale.
Every “fresh” design trend you love is probably stolen—from Soviet posters to 80s neon, from Bauhaus to Blade Runner. We’re not inventing; we’re remixing. Here’s the proof that today’s hottest web aesthetics are just yesterday’s styles in shinier packaging.
If you’ve ever opened a B2B app and felt like you were fighting a maze of menus, tabs, and dashboards — you’re not alone. Traditional navigation was once the backbone of digital products. But today, it feels less like guidance and more like a tax. Every click, every search, every hover-over is a micro-burden that slows people down.
The words “Design System” and “adoption” in a conversation with higher-ups are inevitable. It’s important in organizations where you really have to sell the value of a Design System. It makes sense they care about metrics and adoption – they want to ensure their investment is paying off.
The challenge of finding the perfect metaphor—one that’s clear, culturally sensitive, and future-proof—is what makes designing these miniature artifacts so fascinating. Look at any software interface and you’ll find a constellation of them, each trying to say something without saying a word. Early software icons mimicked real-world objects—phones, disks, folders—and as software matured, so did metaphors with stripped details. Reduced to a minimum, they became more abstract and conceptual representations.
On July 31, a huge Figma banner covered the New York Stock Exchange building with a message that read “Design is everyone’s business.” As Figma stepped into its next chapter, we wanted to celebrate in a way that kept that idea front and center.
