The Paris-based designer learnt how to think independently by reaching black belt in judo. Here, he discusses how he utilises these strengths in his design practice.
Despite the fact that Arthur Nabi is only a 21-years-old, the graphic designer displays a technique and artistry far beyond his years. He was lucky enough to spend a good deal of his latter high school education studying graphic design, a fortuitous head start that most secondary schools do not offer on their curriculums. “I have always had a natural affinity for any form of visual communication, ” he tells us, “it only felt right to follow this interest." With this in mind, he moved from the suburbs of Evry to the heart of the capital to complete the last three years of his secondary education, with an emphasis on all-things graphics related.
This early introduction to the medium proves to be crucial in making Arthur the established designer that he is today. He paid particular attention to what his lecturers had to say, positively influencing him and in turn, cementing his creative outlook today. Not only did he learn the necessary skills required, but during these formative years, Arthur was encouraged to pursue personal projects and explore the topics that inherently interested him. It was here that the designer whole-heartedly delved into the art of judo; an activity he’d spent much of his childhood practicing.

But as a graphic design student, judo influenced him in another way – not just physically. He deduced a number of commonalities between his graphic design and judo practice, and usefully channelled the philosophy of the sport into a creative approach. “I reached black belt at the age of 16, having spent 10 years of my life practicing the martial art, ” explains Arthur. “It taught me respect, to be disciplined with my approach and to think independently. It taught me how to move fluidly but with great skill and strength. The open mat represents my graphic art board and negative space, while all elements and type allow your eye to move around my designs as I would move on the mat.”
It’s a distinct approach to the medium that landed Arthur an internship (now job) with the Paris-based agency Convoy straight after graduation. Working for Convoy, he’s garnered clients such as the likes of Nike, Off-White, Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton and Red Bull Music Festival, just to name a few, all while keeping up with the all-important personal projects too. In a recent project for Nike and Off-White’s Track and Field event in London, Arthur worked closely on the graphic design with Convoy for the creative direction, spatial design and user experience. He adds on the brief: “I enjoyed it a lot as it allowed me to design over a wide range of uses from digital to product, and cognitive ergonomic design.”
Alongside his work with Convoy, Arthur continues to listen to the words of his tutors and pushes forwards with personal projects. One of many is Argentik, a magazine showcasing film and analogue photography founded by Arthur and his good friend Victor Barreyre. It started out with an enduring love for the medium, focusing on a different theme with each issue and accepting submissions from an open call. “We are creating a space where we can encourage people to not only focus on their digital screens, but integrate and collaborate in an authentic way, ” Arthur adds on the project, which fundamentally pays homage to the serendipitous medium of analogue photography.

Seeing as he’s still very young, it’s safe to say that there’s plenty more room to grow for this designer who’s just starting out. It’s an attitude embraced by Arthur, who says, moving forward, “I will continue to push my skills as I believe you can never stop learning.” As well as developing his graphic design practice with time, he also hopes to learn more about himself personally. Overall, by working closely with creatives he looks up to, Arthur’s goal is to execute work to the highest level possible, so it can receive the attention it deserves.

User interface (UI) design refers to the visual design of a product’s digital interface, such as an app screen or website. It’s the process of designing the visual and interactive properties of a visual experience, ensuring the interface is both clear for the user to navigate and overall aesthetically pleasing. UI design is a multidisciplinary field involving various elements from visual design, UX design, and graphic design.

Users have become familiar with certain layouts and patterns. From the typography to the color, every aspect of a digital screen influences the user’s interaction, and satisfaction, with the app or website. UI design involves the complex art of arranging these elements to guide the user and keep cognitive load to a minimum while creating beautiful, unique experiences that bring the product to life.
UI design is so much more than making things look pretty—especially in today’s digitally-led landscape. Most good businesses recognize that exceptional UI design is vital for fostering brand loyalty, recognition, and trust. Customers no longer enjoy well-designed digital experiences; they expect it. In the absence of good design, users will inevitably flee to a competitor.
As you might have guessed, the role of the UI designer is relatively recent. In the late 20th century, computing technology was a revolutionary phenomenon, and computers were seen as mostly functional. This all changed in the 80s, when Apple Macintoshes, and Microsoft Windows were released in quick succession. Businesses realized the value in an appealing digital interface when creating memorable user experiences.

The early 90’s saw manufacturing begin on a sleeker, more adaptable iteration of the desktop computer with the laptop. The first website went live in 1992, featuring only text with the occasional splash of the default hypertext blue. Other UI elements (color schemes, typography, menu’s, etc.) were gradually introduced into digital experiences throughout the 90’s until the computer software plugin Flash changed the game. For the first time, web designers could create any shape and animation they wanted—all within a single tool. With the introduction of Flash, websites became significantly more engaging.
2007, the year when Apple released the first iPhone, ushered in a golden age for UI design. Boasting sophisticated touchscreen functionality, users would never look at their phones the same again—and UI designers suddenly held a new status.
In 2010, web designer Ethan Marcotte created ripples in the UI design world by challenging the approach to mobile UI design. Instead of mobile devices having their own separate websites, he proposed that the same content could be displayed on a desktop—with an adapted layout that optimized the content on a different screen. This revelation was the birth of responsive design, which is now a vital part of UI design.

Today, UI design is a booming and ever-evolving field, with even the most senior product designers expected to have some UI design skills in their arsenal.
UI designers are responsible for ensuring the product’s interface is visually stimulating, easy to navigate, and in line with business goals. They’re also responsible for establishing visual consistency across a digital product through creating style guides and UI pattern libraries.
