UI Design Sketchbook

By John Sousa

The UI Design Sketchbook is a clean, flexible dot-grid notebook created for designers, students, and developers who want a simple, distraction-free space to sketch UI layouts, wireframes, and interface concepts. Designed as a companion or follow-up to the UI Design Workbook, this sketchbook gives you more room to practice, explore, and refine your design thinking.

Inside, you'll find light-gray 12-column dot grid pages, based on an 8-point spacing system, making it easy to sketch pixel-aware layouts with proper alignment, proportion, rhythm, and visual hierarchy. Whether you're drawing a single component, planning an entire page, or iterating on multiple ideas, this sketchbook helps you work faster and more intentionally.

Perfect for UX/UI students, self-taught designers, product teams, or anyone who prefers to think through design problems on paper before jumping into digital tools.
