Learn UX/UI Design From People Who Actually Do It
Our autumn 2025 program brings together designers who've shipped products used by thousands. Not a lecture series—more like an apprenticeship where you'll work on real briefs and get feedback from people solving these problems daily.

Who You'll Learn From
These folks work at studios and product companies across Cairo. They'll share what's actually working right now—not textbook theory from five years ago.
Rashad Farouk
Spent six years designing financial apps. He'll walk you through user research that doesn't require fancy labs—just smart questions and careful observation.
Nadia Elmasry
Her work centers on small screens and quick interactions. Nadia teaches how to strip away everything that doesn't serve the user, especially on mobile.
Yasmin Khalil
Runs design sprints for startups trying to move fast without breaking things. She's great at showing how constraints actually improve creative work.
What We'll Cover Over 12 Weeks
The program runs Saturday mornings and Tuesday evenings starting September 2025. Each session builds on the last, so you'll finish with a portfolio of work—not just notes.
1Understanding User Behavior
We start by watching how people actually use apps, not how we think they should. You'll conduct interviews and spot patterns that inform design decisions.
2Information Architecture
Good structure feels invisible. Bad structure makes people confused and frustrated. This module teaches you to organize content so people find what they need without thinking about it.
3Interaction Patterns
Buttons, gestures, feedback loops—the small stuff that makes or breaks an experience. We'll examine what works across different contexts and why some patterns stick while others flop.
4Visual Design Fundamentals
Color, typography, spacing. These aren't just aesthetic choices—they guide attention and communicate hierarchy. You'll learn to make interfaces that look intentional.
5Prototyping and Testing
The quickest way to learn if your idea works is to put something in front of users. We'll cover rapid prototyping techniques and how to run useful usability tests.
6Portfolio Development
Your work needs context to make sense to others. We'll help you document your process, explain your decisions, and present projects in a way that demonstrates thinking—not just pretty screens.
