1. BRIEF - Landing Page

In the Landing Page project, each student designs a one-page website based on an imagined brief. The goal is to learn how to guide a user through a well-structured visual story—from grabbing their attention to prompting action. The three different themes provide a framework, but the visual solution is entirely up to you. This is the first project where you put your newly acquired UI knowledge into practice in a real-world situation by creating the first impression of a complete digital product.

2. BRIEF - Mobile

In the Mobile brief, you’ll already be working on a real client brief provided to us by Mastercard. This means you’ll be looking for a UI solution to a real problem in the industry. During the project, you’ll learn how to design clean mobile interfaces, how to incorporate the logic of a design system, and how to create visual solutions that meet the strict standards of an international brand. This task is true professional practice: you’ll create a prototype in response to real client needs, with mentors continuously supporting you through their feedback.

AI Block

The goal of the AI block is for you to get to know AI tools and methods, and learn how to consciously integrate them into your own projects. We’ll look at how you can use artificial intelligence for prototyping, speeding up your design workflow, or even creating custom vibe-code solutions. By the end of the block, you’ll have built your own AI-based prototype, assembled with the help of a lead frontend developer. That way, you’ll learn not only in theory, but through a real, working example, how to take your design work to the next level with AI support.
