Even the most experienced senior designers can find themselves lost in a myriad of complexities. That’s why I’ve outlined a fundamental approach to cross-platform design — one that has helped me navigate all the intricacies of designing for large screens in WhatsApp. The best designs are invisible; they seamlessly guide the user through the experience without drawing too much attention.

Adding new features should neither require a complete redesign nor turn your app into a Frankenstein of mismatched elements. This article helps you anchor every UI/UX decision on three main pillars: use case, context, and approach.

Because delulu goals surface your true desires, make realistic goals feel easier, align inner and adult ambitions, and pull you further than logic alone. Pair the two: realistic lighthouses keep you moving, delulu lighthouses stretch what you believe is possible.
