This tutorial by Lee Black walks through the full creative process of designing an interactive Dieter Rams–style radio icon—from idea to interaction. It begins by generating the core visual in ChatGPT using image-generation capabilities. The illustration is then refined and detailed in Figma, where vector precision and color styling bring it to life. Finally, the tutorial shows how to bring the component to life in Framer, enabling interaction through animations and state transitions. The result is a clean, functional, Braun-inspired icon that’s also responsive in a live prototype environment.
This guide stands out by combining three powerful tools—ChatGPT (for concept), Figma (for design), and Framer (for interaction)—into a seamless workflow for designers looking to experiment with minimalistic product visuals and micro-interactions. It’s especially useful for designers interested in motion design, iconography, or modern UI aesthetics grounded in mid-century principles. With clear visuals and a practical use case, this post blends design inspiration with hands-on prototyping.
