The playbook for amplifying your creativity and craft with AI.
Up to now, your range of skills has been restricted by the time it takes to learn new ones. Your ideas often exceed your skill to execute them, so you end up discarding them. AI changes that. Have a 3D idea? AI can be your 3D artist. Want to make a custom interaction? AI can be your developer and motion designer. Any skill you don't have can be filled with AI at your side. If you can imagine it, you can build it. Reinvent design, with AI.
No fixed cohorts. Your path starts with a free hour together.
Move from designer to builder
For most of my career the hard part was getting an idea built. You needed engineers, and you needed time. I've watched teams spend three months in Figma without a single design reaching a customer.
That's gone. You bring the idea and the judgement, AI does the making, and you can take a product from first research all the way to something real and working. The only limit left is your imagination, which was always the part that mattered.
Before the first lesson we spend a free hour together, one to one, mapping where you are now and the path that fits you. You come away with a personal report, whether you go on to the course or not.
You learn AI here by building something real. You bring one idea, anything from an app to a service, and take it from a concept to a working product of your own. The route follows the Double Diamond you already know, weighted towards the half where the making actually happens. The sixteen lessons are the stops along the way.
Here's the whole route. Some lessons are pure technique, learned on their own; others you apply straight to your product.
A one-to-one where we find how you use AI now and where the gaps are, then plot your path through the course. You leave knowing your starting point.
Do you know how AI actually works? The foundational knowledge you need to use it as a creative tool: what it knows, why it makes things up, and when to reach for a lighter or heavier model.
MCP is the key to creative collaboration. You set up a human/AI design workspace and explore some neat ideas on how to work together in it.
Established UX and product techniques for giving AI the right context in the right way, so it fully understands the design task at hand. You build a story map with Claude as a live collaborator on the board.
Use Claude Design to concept multiple ideas through mini experiments, from static design concepts to interactive studies, learning how to break design down into a full design exploration.
How do you make sure AI is using your design system when it creates output? Setup and execution of working with an established design system.
Skills are a powerful way of making AI specialised. You build on what you already know and create skills specific to product design.
How to think about agents in a design context, and how to build ones that practically increase your output.
AI doesn't always tell the truth, but how would you know? The best way to make sure it's accurately using your design system and your brand.
Take your concept designs from experiments to a working prototype, with plenty of tips and tricks for building fast while reducing complexity and saving tokens along the way.
Create your own personal engineering team and workspace, ready for advanced prototyping.
A practical session building an advanced prototype you can share and test with users, indistinguishable from a real product and able to act as your source of truth for design.
Apply everything you've learned to build a human-led, AI-powered design process, balancing human judgement against AI automation.
Aligning systems between code and Figma, porting interface code back into Figma so the library reflects what's actually built.
Organising files, components and naming so the library is legible to a model rather than only to a designer.
Understanding the basics of technical architecture: how data is stored, how services talk to each other, and enough to make good calls about your own.
A hands-on session building a working proof of concept, delegating real build tasks to Claude Code while keeping your judgement over what it produces.
A personalised AI set up just for you. After each session it emails you a branded deck in your own words, showing where you are, what you've cracked, and what to focus on next. It reflects back what you actually said, not what it thinks you want to hear.


Real decks already sent to students, names and identifying detail removed.
Thirty years designing products, alongside you at every stage. I review your work myself, and you've got me on WhatsApp throughout, so you're never stuck waiting.
Direct on WhatsAppA personalised AI set up just for you. It tracks your build and emails a branded deck after every session, in your own words, so you always know where you are and what's next.
If one of these sounds like you, you're cleared for take-off.
Product designers ready to be product builders, taking an idea all the way to a working product.
For anyone tired of good work stalling in a backlog, or in Figma, before a customer ever sees it.
Never touched AI, or dabbled and found it frustrating? We'll decode it together until you've mastered it.

I've spent 30 years designing products, in-house and on the tools, at Microsoft, Channel 4, Sainsbury's, NatWest and E.ON. For the last two years I've rebuilt the way I work around AI, on real 0-to-1 products. You're learning what I actually do, from someone still doing it.
All sixteen lessons across five stages, and you build your product as you go, with live check-ins from me at every stage.
I'm finalising the first intake. The 5-minute scorecard is your boarding pass — finish it and you're on the list, with your AI Native score and your place in line.
Places are limited, since I work with each person directly.
