WHAT I LEARNED

Designing with AI isn’t about automation — it’s about collaboration. I’ve learned that the best results come from a back-and-forth between intuition and iteration: using AI to open possibilities, then refining every detail in Photoshop until the image feels perfectly human — balanced, purposeful, and appropriate for its audience.

Understanding AI is only the beginning — knowing how to shape, refine, and finish the image through multiple tools is what ensures it holds up in print and beyond.

When designed with intent, a single image can speak fluently to both home and retail audiences.

The new technology brings a mix of control and discovery — a liberating way to create rapid permutations of ideas.

AI can translate product attributes into visuals that communicate intended usage.
