Bottom Line

in , ,

While collaborating 🤝 with multiple stakeholders, our Figma files get exposed to fellow design team members, PMs, developers, etc. When decision making happens at the stage of ideation and review phase (especially for tech-heavy company like Druva) everyone has an opinion to give. And the only way to do that is via comments on Figma.

This results in countless threads scattered across a document with no easy way to clean them up: something I call 'comment littering'. Locating them, reading them, replying to them and keeping a track of them can be pain for any designer 🤯. Feedbacks get missed, tasks go untracked, leading to more confusion and effort (several iterations and sometimes even rollbacks) on the mockups 💀. This has been a pain-points for many of my teammates as well.

What if there was a way to read this large amount of data and make sense of it. Derive actionable items out of it, summarize the most important tasks to focus on and help users navigate ⛵️ through the vast canvas i.e. a Figma doc. That what Bottom Line 📝 does.

Powered by AI (of your choice), Bottom Line summarizes lengthy threads into actionable digests, extracts implicit tasks from natural language, and surfaces what matters most to each user based on their role and mentions, and assigns resolution status(es!) to them.

What it does:
- AI Summaries: On-demand or bulk summaries via Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, or custom endpoint (50–200 word limit)
- Task Extraction: Action items (revisions, approvals, blockers, questions) in a dedicated Tasks tab
- Image Analysis: Optional thread images in AI context (vision-capable providers only)

B&S Enforcement Agent App

Bristow & Sutor is a UK-based enforcement agency that specialises in debt recovery and enforcement services. They work with a range of clients, including local authorities, magistrates' courts, and private sector organisation, to recover outstanding debts such as council tax arrears, parking fines, and commercial rent arrears. This project involved envisioning a new mobile app design for enforcement agents on the field while retaining the functionalities present in the legacy mobile app and migrating existing ones from the web application

Project Haze

Project Haze

Project Haze is a site-specific immersive mixed-media installation that tries to invoke the feeling of 'lightness' among its users.

The installation, which works both a day as well as a night installation, takes inspiration from Gaston Bachelard's 'Poetics of Air' and explores the notion of using mist to create a 'ganzfeld effect'. In such a situation, the audience gets separated from their surroundings and immersed in a uniform stimulation field of sound, light, and touch. The result is a heightened sensory perception of all the senses and the flow of individual imagination.

The day installation relies on sunlight and wind to create movement in the mist which seems to immerse from the ground and fly upwards lifting the observer with them. The cool sensation of minute water droplets steals the heat from the sun, leaving a cooling sensation with them, the lack of obstacles allows them to play and explore the 'materiality of the cloud'. The viewer also has a chance to spot a circular rainbow against the sun, which seems to participate in their movement adding more delight to the experience.

During the night, the artist uses projection mapping to introduce volume to an otherwise invisible installation which again reinforces the principles of sensorial engagement, freedom in seclusion, and the materiality of mist with its audience.
