A good read after a while, by @itspatmorgan  🤩

"... we're able to envision things that don't exist and imagine how they might come to be.

...We make the intangible tangible and the complex digestible."

Influence of Design

Almost done with landing page cover photos. Here is a landing page for the "Fun" page where I will host all my prototypes and other exploratory plays. 

Attaching some rejected iterations as well 😬 

Created a hand illustration from scratch for a work landing page. Attaching moodboard in the thread, heavily inspired from Uber hands 

Some icons for portfolio website. 

Next up is some loop animation for these illustrations using Fable.

Was intrigued by the pattern used in @columnbank https://twitter.com/adamwathan/status/1517174861105401858

This led to looking at guilloche patterns used in passports, visas, and currencies. 

Came across these cool patterns (CPU hungry), which I used in the first tweet.

Protopie demo

I used to loathe designing for edge cases. I hope this framework helps to design the edge of edge cases. More about this here 👇

Weekly stats on my articles. Top viewed article was written in 2018, still going strong. 

How to design for edge cases early in the process

👋 Twitter design. I published a new article this weekend. In this article I write about emphatizing with Engineers and a new way to prototype interfaces.

Tweet by Mr. @jmspool inspired me to write this article. When I saw this tweet, I said to myself "This would make a great headline." 😅

During my research for this article, I also came across Mr. @DaveEvansDYL's Designing your Life book and their take on 4 ways of thinking. Definitely a must read.

I would love to know your prototyping process and how it has evolved over time. Please feel free to reach out to me.
