Agentic design,
put into practice.
Get started with agentic design using tools from Anthropic and OpenAI. In this four-hour introductory workshop, practise briefing an AI agent, building a small prototype, and improving it with guidance from Antonija and Vitali.

[01]Overview
The first AI draft is easy to get. Making it fit your idea takes design judgment: a clear brief, a critical eye, and knowing what to change next.
Bring that judgment to a hands-on workshop at Kulttuuritalo. You’ll see how Antonija and Vitali make those decisions, then practise on a guided prototype exercise. Leave with your work from the session and a process to try on your next brief.
[02]What you'll learn
What you'll learn
Agents make the work fast. Design knowledge makes it good. You leave with both.
Four hours, with a break halfway through. See a short demo, try it on your own prototype, and get feedback as you go.
Set foundations that last
Start from a working design system and app, then make the tokens, type and components your own. Everything the agent builds after that inherits your decisions instead of generic defaults.
Brief and build real work
Turn user needs and product goals into a brief an agent can act on, then build real screens in a fraction of the usual time, with Antonija and Vitali steering alongside you.
Review like a design lead
Spot the generic choices agents fall back on, give feedback they can act on, and push the result to your own bar. You leave with the work and a loop you can run again on Monday.

Learn with working designers
Learn with Antonija and Vitali: two designers sharing how they approach real product work, with both on hand during the exercise.
Antonija Pek
Antonija is a Helsinki-based Lead Product Designer at Yousician who ships code. In 15+ years she has designed for millions of users at Yousician, Wolt, Nosto, and AI startups, working across design systems, product strategy, user research, and frontend development.
She designed, coded, and shipped Vocabbie, an AI language tutor opened in 99 countries, solo to both app stores without a single mockup. She built Dax, her own AI agent on the Claude Agent SDK, and shares what she learns on AI Party, a podcast about designing with AI, and in her YouTube design tutorials.

"Antonija is an exceptional sparring partner when it comes to AI tools and workflows. She combines sharp thinking with hands-on experimentation, making complex setups feel practical and immediately useful."
"She is a very structured and effective designer who can rapidly shape even the crudest bullet-point ideas into refined user journeys and interactions with minimal guidance."
"Proactive, forward-thinking, constantly learning new tools and guiding others to work smarter."
Vitali Gusatinsky
Vitali is a Helsinki-based designer and the co-founder and CDO of Vandall, the music technology platform he has built with his co-founders. In 15+ years of product and service design he has shipped 100+ projects, designed services that millions of people use every day, and taught more than 1,000 people.
He covers the whole arc of a product, from UX research and business strategy to design systems and agentic coding. At Fraktio he grew the design team from three to nine and led work for Visma, the Parliament of Finland, Bosch, and PwC.

"Vitali has a rare ability to make complex technology practical and meaningful for both people and organizations. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to evolve their career or organization through AI."
"Vitali went above and beyond to ensure successful outcome and really impressed us with new ideas, solutions and issues we did not even know to ask for. 100% recommended!"
"Working with Vitali made me a better product thinker. He doesn't get distracted by noise. He finds the real problem, articulates it clearly and then moves fast. What sets Vitali apart is not only his design capability, but his ability to teach while doing."

[04]Who it's for & what to bring
Best suited for
- Product and service designers who want to turn ideas into interactive prototypes
- Design leads introducing agentic workflows to their teams
- Product managers and owners who want to explore and test product ideas
This is an introductory workshop for designers who are new to agentic design or have only tried it a little. No previous experience with AI agents is needed. We start with the basics and guide you through your first prototype exercise.
What to bring
- Your laptop
- Your charger
- We’ll use tools from Anthropic and OpenAI during the workshop. Any paid Claude or ChatGPT plan works. A bigger plan gives you more usage headroom, like a Claude Max 5x plan or a ChatGPT Pro 5x plan.
Included in your ticket
Four hours of learning
Teaching and guided practice with Antonija and Vitali. Put the ideas to work as you learn.
A bite to eat
A sandwich is included, so you can take a break and refuel.
Something to sip

Dietary preferences
We’ll ask about your dietary preferences when you sign up.

[06]For teams
Interested in training your team?We also run custom training for companies, built around your stack and your work.
It starts with a conversation about how your team works today: the tools you already use, the product you are building, and where agents could take the most repetitive work off your plate.
From there we build the training around your stack and your material, so people practise on your own briefs, your design system and your codebase. That way the new habits still hold on Monday morning, when we are no longer in the room.
Built on your stack
Claude Code, Codex, Figma, your repositories, whatever your team actually works with.
Practised on your work
Exercises use your real briefs and your own design system rather than a demo app.
Sized to your team
From a focused half day to a series of sessions for a whole department.
