Balsamimiq Lofi Library

Figma Wireframing Library Concept, just for fun

Balsamiq has always been a wireframing tool known for its hand-drawn, playful aesthetic—something Figma lacked. I wanted to bring that whimsy into Figma by creating a wireframing library that felt intentionally imperfect and fun. This was an experimental project and not a full library. After reaching 5500 usages, it was taken down by the Figma community team per a third party request.
