Figma

Build a structured, responsive interface in Figma from first frame to shareable prototype: organise the file, create layout rules and reusable components, assemble a small product flow, test interactions, and prepare the work for review and implementation.

What you will be able to answer

A proptech team asks you to turn an architect's understanding of projects and users into a clickable product concept. What can you produce after this course?

A structured Figma file for a small responsive proptech flow, such as browsing a project and opening its detail view. It includes named mobile and desktop frames, layout guides, reusable text and colour styles, auto-layout components with meaningful variants, a connected prototype starting point, review-ready annotations and exportable assets. The artifact demonstrates software fluency and interface construction; research evidence, product strategy and a full portfolio case study remain separate work.

Concept 2

Set layout guides and resizing constraints

locked

After: file-frames-and-layers

Guides make alignment intentional; constraints determine what survives when the frame changes size.

Concept 3

Build flexible groups with auto layout

locked

After: file-frames-and-layers

Auto layout turns a manually spaced group into a structure that responds when content or container size changes.

Concept 4

Create reusable text and colour styles

locked

After: file-frames-and-layers

Named styles turn repeated visual decisions into linked rules that can be changed once and checked everywhere.

Concept 5

Create components and reusable instances

locked

After: auto-layout, visual-styles

A component is a maintained source; its instances reuse that source while allowing controlled local content changes.

Concept 6

Model component states with variants

locked

After: components-and-instances

Variants organise meaningful states of one component so screens can switch behaviour without maintaining separate copies.

Concept 7

Build a low-fidelity wireframe

locked

After: layout-guides-and-constraints, components-and-instances

A wireframe tests whether one screen communicates its hierarchy and primary action before visual polish makes change expensive.

Concept 8

Turn the flow into responsive screens

locked

After: wireframe-flow, variants-and-properties, visual-styles

Responsive design preserves hierarchy and reusable patterns while changing layout—not by shrinking an entire desktop screen.

Concept 9

Connect and test an interactive prototype

locked

After: responsive-screen-system

A prototype is a named, testable route through screens—not a collection of decorative transitions.

Prepare the file for review and handoff

Selection criteria

  • Demonstrates the operation in a current Figma Design interface rather than describing it from slides
  • Produces or improves a recognisable interface screen, component, responsive layout or prototype flow
  • Keeps frames, layers, components and styles named and structured so another designer can inspect the file
  • Shows resizing, reuse or interaction behaviour rather than treating the canvas as a static drawing board
  • Explains the design consequence of the Figma operation without turning the lesson into general UX theory

What was rejected

3 candidates did not meet the course criteria.

  • Focuses strictly on comparing frames and sections rather than building an actual UI screen.
  • Extremely brief summary video that does not show styles applied across multiple layers or live linked updates.
  • discusses user flows without building the screens that carry the flow

Where this skill is used

Graphic / Communication Designer

You work in visual communication — branding, editorial, and digital graphics. It's an easier lateral for the Adobe-fluent, with a generally lower pay ceiling than UX, so many use it as a stepping stone toward UX. Note: figures use art-director aggregator data as a proxy.

Proptech / AEC-Software Product & Design

You take design, product, or customer-success roles at proptech and AEC-software companies — design-tool startups, real-estate-tech, and similar. It blends your architecture domain knowledge with a tech-product career. Note: there's no clean isolated salary dataset, so figures track tech-product/UX bands as a proxy.

UX / UI & Product Designer

You design digital products — apps, websites, software interfaces — using user research, information architecture, design systems, and interface design. This is the flagship architecture pivot: spatial reasoning, user-journey thinking, and systems design transfer directly, and mid/senior pay clearly exceeds practice. The extra step is a portfolio of 2–3 case studies plus Figma fluency, often via a short bootcamp — not a second degree.
