Link to your portfolio or body of work (Drive, Behance, website, whatever you have) *

Link 5 pieces of design work you personally made. For at least 2, walk us through the brief and the design choices you made (layout, type, colour, why). *

Pick any brand's Instagram grid that you think is well designed. Drop the handle and tell us what makes it work visually, not just "it looks clean." *

A new premium skincare brand gives you their logo, brand colours (matte black, off-white, gold), and says "make us look luxurious but not boring." Design or describe 3 different visual directions you would present. What makes each one distinct? *

Walk us through how you have used AI tools (Midjourney, Firefly, Freepik, or others) in a real project. What did you prompt, how did you refine it, and how did it fit into the final output? *

You are designing for two brands on the same day. One is a streetwear label that wants to feel raw and underground. The other is a heritage jewelry brand that wants to feel timeless. Show us or describe what the Instagram feed post looks like for each. Same content type, same format, completely different design language. *

Pick any brand logo you think is perfectly designed. Now pick one you think is weak. Tell us why for both. Not "I like it" or "it looks off." Tell us what is structurally working or failing. *

What is a design trend on Instagram right now that you think is lazy? Why does it keep showing up and what would you replace it with? *

Send us a screenshot of your saved folder or Pinterest board. Not a curated one. The one you actually use for reference. We want to see what you collect when nobody is looking. *

Tell us about a typeface you love and one you refuse to use. Why for both? Be specific, not "it looks nice" or "it is overused." *

Name a designer, studio, or brand whose visual identity makes you genuinely jealous. What are they doing that you have not figured out how to do yet? *

You are given complete creative freedom for a brand's Instagram page. No guidelines, no references, just "make it ours." What is the first thing you build before you design a single post? *

If you had to explain the difference between a good designer and a great designer to someone outside the industry, what would you say? *

What is the most underrated design skill that nobody talks about but separates people who are good from people who are actually reliable to work with? *

Where do you want to be in 2 years? Not the polished answer. The real one. *

Send us one piece of design, from anywhere on the internet, that you wish you had made. No explanation needed. What you pick tells us more than any answer on this form. *

Lastly, Why DISRPTVE? Be honest. What made you fill this form out instead of scrolling past it? *
