How eating frogs, dog-food, cat-food and raw monkey meat makes us better designers We frowned upon any weird food, and our sub-conscious mind filters out what we do not perceive as “design-ish.” As the saying goes, “You are what you eat!” While the saying suggests healthy eating in the modern age, the French author, Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, actually said these words with an entirely different meaning: the human culture between food and identity.

Source: Figma Everyone loves a good underdog story. Underdogs are appealing not because they simply beat the odds but overcome an injustice that explains those odds — such as the game being unfairly rigged due to privilege and power. However, in the case of Figma vs Adobe, designers were led to a rather anti-climatic, and maybe even dejected place. If you follow any kind of design news, you would have heard about the 20 billion dollar acquisition of Figma by Adobe.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

When we design products or websites for people like ourselves, there are many others who are, as a result, left out. From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.
