After writing Branding Comes First, I knew my next step would be to go even deeper into design fundamentals — this time from the perspective of day-to-day interface decisions.

So here it is:
UX and UI in Practice: Understand the Difference Before You Start Designing
Available now on Amazon Kindle


Why I wrote it

Because too often, teams jump into design tools without actually knowing who’s doing UX, who’s doing UI, and where the responsibilities split.
And then: confusion, overwork, scope creep, lost clarity.

This book exists to fix that.

It’s for everyone who’s ever heard “UX/UI” said like it’s one role — and felt the consequences later in the product.


What you’ll find inside

  • A clear distinction between UX and UI — with real-world language
  • A full breakdown of the link vs button dilemma
  • How color communicates function before words do
  • Where interface ends and experience begins
  • Why beautiful UI doesn’t work if UX isn’t driving the logic

Who it’s for

  • Junior and mid-level designers
  • Developers who work closely with UI/UX teams
  • Product owners, startup founders and design-adjacent roles
  • Anyone tired of vague, theoretical design books

If Branding Comes First was about business foundations,
this book is about design clarity — before a single pixel is pushed.
