"Designer's New Superpower: Agentic Design Systems" by Shivam Soni
In this 30-minute session, Shivam shares a technical showcase, breaking down what an Agentic Design System is and why it matters for designers today.

You'll see a live demo of AI generating real, on-brand UI from a Figma design system โ€” using nothing but plain English. No code, no handoff friction. The talk wraps up with a bigger picture look at how AI is shifting the designer's role โ€” and what that means for you.

Bio: Shivam Soni is a Product & UX Designer and MSc HCI candidate at University College Dublin, on a mission to close the gap between design and engineering. He builds tools and workshops that help designers ship real products using AI, no code required. Shivam is the creator of the Agentic Design System framework, which lets designers turn Figma components into fully functional UI through plain English prompts.
