I’m Mac, an ex-Meta design lead with 15 years of experience designing products for companies ranging from early-stage startups to Fortune 500s. At Meta, I led design for a range of consumer and B2B products spanning Gen AI, Creator & Business Tooling, Infrastructure, and Analytics. Now I bring that expertise to Frilled, helping AI & B2B startups go from 0→1 faster, and accelerate the path to product-market fit through iterative, hands-on execution.
Over 7-10 days, I'll transform your product's visual design to create a cohesive, contemporary interface that reflects the quality of your tech. We'll update your color palette, typography, spacing, and component styling across key screens. The refresh includes a lightweight visual system and implementation guidelines—everything your team needs to roll out the new look across your entire product while maintaining your existing user workflows.
A design refresh delivers immediate impact:
First impressions matter—a polished interface signals that you're a serious company worth trusting with important data and workflows.
Consolidate inconsistent patterns and create a cohesive system that makes future updates faster and cheaper.
Whether it's investors, enterprise clients, or potential hires, modern design demonstrates attention to detail and execution excellence.
Contemporary design patterns reduce cognitive load and make users feel confident they're using a reliable product.
A design refresh is a good fit for:
You've been focused on functionality but the UI hasn't kept up with modern standards.
You need to polish your product before investor demos to match the ambition of your vision.
The scrappy design that got you started now undermines the sophisticated product you've built.
Different features look like different products because they were built at different times.
Book a free 30-min strategy call, and if it’s not the right fit, no pressure—you’ll leave with actionable advice to help point you in the right direction.
