My Design Philosophy

🧰

Design is a toolbox

I view design as a set of tools to facilitate understanding, alignment, and problem solving. The exact tools depend on the context, but the double diamond is a great representative framework.


Align and iterate

Collaborate in the lowest fidelity possible to most effectively, clearly communicate and align at each step - then iterate to work out further details.

📈

Keep a growth mindset

Both system and goals are important - small improvements can make a big difference over time.

💯

Impact over perfection

I used to think it was a designer's job to sweat 100% of the details, but now I believe its actually to identify and focus on the 20% that matters most.

Leave it better than you found it

A philosophy that I learned in Boy Scouts that I still use today (and preach to others) when designing.
