About this project
Redesigns are the canonical designer portfolio piece. This project teaches the craft: problem identification, user research lite, ideation, high-fidelity design, and the case-study writeup. Pick a product whose UX you genuinely think is poor, redesign one flow, and write up the case study.
Why build this in 2026?
Strong case studies still beat any tutorial-following on designer resumes.
