About Event

AI can produce an attractive first screen in minutes, which means that the bar is now higher.

The harder part comes next:

  • translate the vision of the product into language that AI can understand and implement

  • push AI to work harder

  • keeping the rest of the product clear, consistent and intentional as you add more sections, screens and responsive states.

Meng To has spent the last 25 years refining his taste for good designs, building them, and the past 2-3 years refining his mastery of how to use AI to bring those designs to live.

In this free live session, Meng To designer and founder of designcode.io and aura.build and Three UI, will explain why design judgment matters more not less when AI can generate the first draft, then walk through how he uses AI to turn a strong reference into something coherent and distinctive.

In this free live session, Meng will unpack how he uses references, design judgment and clear direction to produce work that feels coherent and deliberately made.

This is a standalone session. You do not need to join the paid workshop to find it useful.

What you’ll take away

  • A clearer way to translate product intent into direction AI can use

  • A practical lens for judging hierarchy, typography, spacing and page rhythm

  • Signals that tell you when an AI-generated design is becoming generic or inconsistent

  • A better way to preserve the original design direction as the product grows

  • Ideas you can apply to your own work after the session

Agenda

7:00 - 7:20pm

  • Why design judgment matters more in the age of AI

  • How Meng moves from a strong reference to clear design direction

  • How he recognises drift and decides what to correct

7:20pm - 7:45pm

  • Ask me anything (AMA) with Meng To


Who is Meng To

Meng To has spent 25 years developing his craft as a designer and the past 2-3 years experimenting intensively with AI.

He is the designer and founder behind:

…and has grown his products to beyond paying 200k users.

He has been invited to speak and teach coding and design at companies including Apple, Figma, and Paypal in San Francisco and Singapore.

His designs and posts are followed by:


Who this is for

This is for designers, engineers, product managers, founders and builders who already use AI tools but want more control over the quality of what they make.

  • If you are not design trained, it is important that you sharpen your craft and your eye for good design.

  • If you are design trained, you need to hone your mastery over AI because you CAN make it work harder and produce better results. With this mastery, you can stop falling back to traditional tools.

It is not a beginner introduction to AI tools.


Why we’re doing this

We are very heartened by the Singapore community's interest in creating delightful designs.

  • During launch week, all 20 early-bird places for Meng’s in-person masterclass were claimed.

  • His 5 minute demo and sharing on SQ Collective's latest Co-working Friday Demo Day was also exceptionally well received.

We invited Meng To do this webinar so more people could get the chance to hear his experiences and craft.

In the final few minutes, we’ll also explain the optional in-person masterclass for anyone who wants to work through the full process with Meng’s direct guidance. Special promotion code to be revealed.

Free to attend.
