Unfinished: Notes on Designing Experience in a World That Never Stops Changing

Written and evolving with Haider Ali — “Perfection is slow. Progress teaches.”

Design is never finished—it’s only released, observed, and revised. Unfinished is a living manuscript about crafting experiences that evolve with people, systems, and time.

Drawn from years inside complex organizations, it blends reflection, practice, and principle to help you navigate change when “final” is an illusion.

Each edition explores dimensions of modern experience design—from trust and clarity to AI-driven workflows—and invites you to apply field-tested moves immediately.

Early readers see drafts, updates, and revisions in real time. This isn’t a finished book—it’s a shared practice in progress.
