Did you know that the .png format was created out of spite? Or that .jpeg just discards like half of the colours in your image because you won't notice?

I've been building brand tools with AI lately and it's the most fun i've had with design in years. not generating finished assets, but building the generator that makes on-brand textures / patterns / key visuals on demand.
turns out, many designers are vibecoding tools like this!
so i'm starting a running thread to collect the good ones.
built something like this? drop it below. 👇

I’m a collector at heart. Last year, after being frustrated with any app I tried for managing my design inspiration I did the only thing that made sense in 2025 – building my own, just for myself. Native, cross-platform, file system based.

Designers can't control every model output, but we can design the conditions that shape generation. Over the last year I've constructed a framework for myself to make sense of how AI is changing our roles, what we work on, and what we can influence.
