Unusual Toggles
A collection of 12 experimental toggle switches—each one a micro-world of motion, material, and character.
UI DesignMotion
Toggles are the smallest unit of interaction—a binary promise between a product and its user. What happens when you treat each one as a world of its own?
{ OBJECTIVE }
Four constraints. Infinite variation.
01
No standard shapes
Every toggle breaks from the conventional pill or rectangle. Form follows personality, not convention.
02
Motion is the message
The transition itself communicates meaning—state changes are never instant, always felt.
03
Material honesty
Each toggle embodies a distinct material logic: fluid, elastic, crystalline, mechanical.
04
Self-contained worlds
A toggle is a micro-product. It must work in total isolation, with its own language and character.
05
Emotion over function
The toggle must spark a feeling—curiosity, satisfaction, delight—not just confirm a state change.
06
Pixel-perfect craft
Every frame of animation is intentional. No lazy easing, no accidental artifacts.
{ DESIGN PROCESS }
How each toggle was made
Start with an emotion — not a shape. What should this state change feel like? Satisfying, playful, calm, electric?
Sketch the physics first. Spring tension, overshoot, and easing are the soul of a toggle — everything else is decoration.
Build in Figma, animate in Jitter. Iterate until the motion feels inevitable — not designed, just right.
Release, listen, and repeat. Community feedback shaped which directions to push, which to drop, and which to revisit with more ambition.
{ THE COLLECTION }
12 toggles. 12 personalities.
Each one designed as a self-contained micro-world with its own motion language and material logic.
{ COMMUNITY }
Community Involvement
Every toggle was shared publicly on X. Community feedback helped shape the design direction: from style preferences (light vs. dark) to favorites by vote. Feedback was never an afterthought; it was part of the design system.
Breaking away from convention is powerful, but never easy.
Working within strict limits unlocked unexpected creativity.
Sharing the process publicly didn’t just build momentum; it brought clarity, direction, and real connection.
{ WHAT'S NEXT }
From components to systems
The toggle series was a proof of concept—that micro-interactions can carry full product personality. The next step is scaling this thinking into a broader motion design system.
