Public work and practical resources.
Some of my work begins when a useful tool, representation or explanation is missing. That includes product-design resources drawn from shipped work, alongside African Icon Library, Nigerian Mockups, Retna and other public projects.
These are working tools drawn from the product decisions behind Mular, Kolibri and Farmcrowdy. Each one includes a practical review map and a downloadable worksheet.
Transaction states people can act on
A review map for payment flows: where the money is, what the system knows, what the user should do and who owns recovery.
Designing workflows for unreliable connections
An interruption review for workflows that can begin online, lose the connection halfway through and still need to finish without making the user repeat everything.
A trust decision map for unfamiliar financial products
A stage-by-stage review of the questions people need answered before they commit money to a product they do not already understand.
Turning repeated states into reusable product patterns
A pattern-promotion review for deciding when a recurring product answer belongs in the design system and what the pattern must carry beyond its visual component.
A free, open library of original icons and illustrations built for African people, places and everyday life — created because most design-tool icon sets default to a Western visual reference and leave African designers filling the gap themselves.
Visit project ↗A library of contextual device and lifestyle mockups built around Nigerian settings, objects and people — the same representation gap as the icon library, answered for product and marketing imagery instead of iconography.
Visit project ↗An African stock-photography platform, co-founded to give African creators a place to license and sell photography of African life, and give brands a supply of imagery that does not default to generic Western stock.
Visit project ↗A side practice, not a hobby that stayed private: documentary photography of agriculture, cities and everyday life, published and reused independently of anything designed for work.
Visit project ↗Mentoring designers and founders, informally and through accelerator and community programmes, alongside the venture and studio work.
