Welcome to CreateSC 2026!
Prompt:
A. Figma Design Track:
-
Option 1: Design a new digital product that encourages users to revisit, reflect on, or build upon their past content. Consider how the product creates a sense of rhythm — through routines, resurfaced moments, or evolving interactions — that makes returning feel as natural as creating.
-
Option 2: Choose an existing tool that treats information as static and disposable in the name of efficiency. Reimagine it as a space where content evolves, resurfaces organically, and deepens in meaning through repeated interaction.
B. Framer Track
-
Option 1: Create a web experience that shifts based on how a user engages with it — one that rewards presence and consistency over speed or task completion. What does a digital space look like when it responds to how you show up, not just what you do?
- Option 2: Design an interactive environment where elements grow, decay, shift, or adapt based on user behavior over time. Explore how temporal change can reshape the way we browse, interact, and relate to digital spaces.
C. Figma Make Track
-
Option 1: Design a digital experience where imperfection is intentional. Rough edges, variation, or subtle irregularities should add character rather than be treated as flaws. Use Figma Make to prototype dynamic interactions that would be difficult to express in a static interface.
- Option 2: Find a digital experience that feels over-optimized (i.e. sterile, frictionless, forgettable). Reimagine it so the interface changes through repeated use, introducing variation, wear, or adaptation over time. Use Figma Make to prototype interactions where the system evolves with use in ways that would be difficult to express in a static design.
Requirements
1. Link to Prototype
Create a functional or interactive prototype that demonstrates a complete experience with at least six unique screens alongside multiple states or interactions.
2. Video Walkthrough
Provide a bried video walkthough that introduces your project and features your prototype in action.
3. Project Writeup
Include a brief writeup to justify your chosen experience and design process so our judges can understand not just what you built, but how and why you built it.
To CONFIRM your project's presence AFTER this Devpost submission, all team should fill out a Project Submission Google Form [will be shared and specified through Discord].
For more questions, please reach out in the channel or find useful information in the guideline deck.
