Because “good enough”
sometimes isn’t.
Hello, I’m Denby — a UX designer who thinks digital products are really cool, except when they are being incredibly uncool.
I like poking at the bits of software everyone sometimes struggles with. The form that asks for the same thing twice. The button hiding in plain sight. The workaround someone teaches you on your first day because the “official” flow is a little bit cooked.
That’s the stuff I care about: small frustrations, weird systems, good ideas trapped under bad interfaces, and the occasional “surely this could be better?” that ruins my peace until I open Figma.
I’m also trying to make sense of AI. Sometimes scared, mostly interested, and deeply suspicious of anyone who sounds too certain about where this is all going.
Here you’ll find projects I’ve been prodding at, experiments that got out of hand, and ramblings on design, technology, and whatever else has been rattling around my head long enough to become a page.
