Figma Application Design Challenge

I work in Figma every day as a product designer. I love Figma, so this "Design Challenge" for myself was a longshot attempt to making improvements that was completely assumptive and absolutely so fun to work on.

Does this look the same? What were some key improvements?

• Improve icons visual aesthetics using more rounded corners and a thicker stroke

• Introducing more container-based components for buttons and menus

• Revealing features that are generally more hidden

• Rearranging top action bar to improve document name visibility and to give the tools the room they deserve

• Remove the Home Button in the top tabs and merging the function with the document name

• Improving tabs for both left and right panels giving them for visual recognition and a more recognizable clickable component

• Revealing "Styles" as a new tab as this has been a hidden feature that displays only when unselecting an object

• "Assets" is replaced with "Libraries", plus I separated Assets from Components where I introduced a new tab dedicated to only "Components"

What's next?

I'm now working on prototyping this to show-off a variety of dynamic content for each of the tabs to expose some of the new features, such as Libraries, Components, and Styles. Much more to come!
