What Offgrid Does
- Detects when someone follows you in a Figma file
- Sends a live, real-time notification to your screen
- Works quietly in the background — no impact on your file
- Designed to respect privacy, enhance awareness, and support creative flow
Designed for solo flows, concepting sprints, and deep UI sessions.
How It Works
- Run Offgrid from the Figma Plugin store
- Open it once in the file you want to track
- That's it. You're covered.
When someone follows you — you'll feel it.
Designer's Statement
We all want to be part of a team —
but personal design space is vital to creativity.
Offgrid is about protecting that space.
About honoring the moments where ideas form before feedback.
It guards the silence, the spark, the shape of an idea before it's spoken.
It respects the designer's zone — the flow state, the sketch phase, the almost there.
Not loud. Not flashy. Just present.
Offgrid is inspired by the modern grid.
Not just the digital kind — but the one pioneered by Piet Mondrian in the 1920s:
A structure born from radical clarity.
A pursuit of universal balance, simplicity, and transparency.
He called it Neoplasticism.
We call it awareness.
Offgrid lets you know when someone's there.
Because even in the most collaborative files,
your focus deserves a little privacy.
Someone stepped into your pixels?
You should know.
#DesignOffgrid
The way we design, hand over, and receive feedback is breaking — so we started a movement to slow down and rethink it.
For designers who want to go offgrid —
to listen to their own cursor pulse.
To feel their way through the layers.
A quiet space for those who don't just follow the grid —
they question what it's made of.
