How to Create a UX Design How to create UX specifications using the BMad Method

Use the create-ux-design workflow to create UX specifications for projects where user experience is a primary differentiator.

When to Use This

  • UX is primary competitive advantage
  • Complex user workflows needing design thinking
  • Innovative interaction patterns
  • Design system creation
  • Accessibility-critical experiences

When to Skip This

  • Simple CRUD interfaces
  • Internal tools with standard patterns
  • Changes to existing screens you're happy with
  • Quick Flow projects

Prerequisites

  • BMad Method installed
  • UX Designer agent available
  • PRD completed

Steps

1. Load the UX Designer Agent

Start a fresh chat and load the UX Designer agent.

2. Run the UX Design Workflow

*create-ux-design

3. Provide Context

Point the agent to your PRD and describe:

  • Key user journeys
  • UX priorities
  • Any existing design patterns

4. Collaborate on Design

The workflow uses a collaborative approach:

  1. Visual exploration - Generate multiple options
  2. Informed decisions - Evaluate with user needs
  3. Collaborative design - Refine iteratively
  4. Living documentation - Evolves with project

5. Review the UX Spec

The agent produces comprehensive UX documentation.

What You Get

The ux-spec.md document includes:

  • User journeys
  • Wireframes and mockups
  • Interaction specifications
  • Design system (components, patterns, tokens)
  • Epic breakdown (UX stories)

Example

Dashboard redesign produces:

  • Card-based layout with split-pane toggle
  • 5 card components
  • 12 color tokens
  • Responsive grid
  • 3 epics (Layout, Visualization, Accessibility)

Integration

The UX spec feeds into:

  • PRD updates
  • Epic and story creation
  • Architecture decisions (Phase 3)

Tips

  • Focus on user problems, not solutions first
  • Generate multiple options before deciding
  • Consider accessibility from the start
  • Document component reusability
