About this episode
If you asked me “who has the best taste in design right now?” one of the first people I’d mention is Thiago Costa.
His product Fey is in the S-tier of design and I’ve studied his visual techniques for many years.
Finally, after over a 12 months of pestering he agreed to share his secrets in a interview 🙌
We go deep into:
- Mastering the finer details of craft
- Putting AI at the heart of the new Fey 2.0
- Where Thiago draws inspiration outside of UI
- What it looks like to have a “heightened awareness”
- How Thiago evolved the Fey aesthetic from 1.0 to 2.0
- Specific visual techniques for making your UI more lifelike
- a lot more
- Caravaggio is the painter who Thiago calls the “master of light”
- The Local Project interior design channel on YouTube
