WHY THE SMARTEST DESIGNERS MOVE BETWEEN HIGH AND LOW FIDELITY

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Designers strategically shift between high and low-fidelity designs to guide conversations and control feedback, using simplified wireframes to focus teams on structure and user experience rather than visual details. Blending fidelities helps direct attention to specific changes while signaling what's open for discussion versus finalized. Several Figma plugins now automate this conversion process, making it practical for designers to defidelity screens quickly and use visual simplicity as a communication tool throughout the design process.
