Griffin UI design

A bird's-eye view of the visual UI design I produced for the family of API-first banking products while at Griffin.

At Griffin, I led the design and build of a multi-theme design system powering two complex banking apps and several websites.

As a generalist designer/developer, my design work spanned from higher-level product design (working on features such as billing, Open Banking, and API security), low-level UI polish, producing public-facing marketing material, and writing interactive design guidelines.1

In most of the below examples, I produced both the design and the implementation. All but a few made their way to production.

This is a bird's-eye view focusing on visual design; more detailed prototypes and examples are available on request. For best experience, view on desktop.
