macOS Tahoe 26: what could have been VS what we got. 🥲 Share your thoughts!

Little sneak peek from our recent work at No Matter Studio. Hope you guys like it!

No Matter’s new home is live! 🚀 nomatter.studio I spent a month building the branding and website for my agency; launched it...then realized I hated it. Together with my co-founder, we decided to start from scratch. Now, seeing it live, I know it was the right move.

I’m crafting Anchor to be opinionated and to feel right for those who connect with it. Settings are nestled within the project menu. No icons, no affordances. Early on, it will guide you with visual cues. Over time, they will fade, trusting you’ll know your way around.

I know I should move on, but this is soo addictive...

Apple already had everything they needed, they only had to apply Vision OS to their ecosystem... The new OS direction feels too heavy-handed. It feels like a fake leak.

Apple fanboy and product designer here. The new liquid glass effect on iOS feels odd. Everything is hard to parse. The backgrounds end up being too prominent, making the content difficult to read. I already miss the blurred glass effect. 🥲

Fine-tuning every detail. tryanchor.app

Two weeks ago, I promised to design for free a screen for one of your ideas. Douglas on Threads gave me a cool one! 🤝 Here it is: Nido (Italian for Nest) 🪺.A cozy family hub app to manage tasks, QTNAs, projects, and more.Hope you like it.

Last summer, I poured my heart into building this web experience for lndmrk on Webflow with GSAP’s slick animations. Pumped for their GSAP acquisition—hoping it’s a game-changer! 🤞🔥 Framer’s animations are already killing it, so Interaction 3.0 better deliver!

🚀 Exciting news! Anchor has a new home at tryanchor.app! ⚓ Want to stay in the loop and maybe even become a beta tester? Drop your email there to get the latest updates!

Details from Domino browser, getting sexy for iOS 19 release. Now missing a Swift wizard to make this app a reality. Gotta reincarnate as a dev in my next life!

Hot product designer take: AI LLMs are stuck in an outdated chat format with Km of chat bubbles filled with text vanishing into timelines that are way too easy to lose. We need a smarter way to engage with AI, that elevates every response in the most impactful way possible.

First look at Anchor's icon! ⚓️ What do you guys think?
