I remember discovering chatgpt some weeks after it came out around late 2022, told my guys about it, one of them used it as said “Guyyyy this thing na anti-Christ o!”😭😭

[Ghost St Badmus @commando_skiipz]

When ChatGPT first started getting attention in my office around January 2023, I used it like I was doing something illegal. I’d look around to make sure no one was watching, sneak in a prompt, quickly copy the output into a Word document, and pretend I was just “reading notes.”

Fast forward to last year: I was seated beside a CISO at an event, shamelessly prompting Claude with, “Alright, now let’s do for this one too…”

Whenever a new design to code tool comes around, people get excited. It’s considered the holy grail of design. You can now design with code. This is the final evolution.

But I don’t agree. It’s only the holy grail if you value output higher than the process of design.

Whenever a designer becomes more of a builder, some idealism and creativity dies. Not because building is bad, but because you start out including constraints earlier in the process than they should.

I’m one that very much thinks design is ultimately what is shipped. But before it shipped, there is a lot of stages that don’t benefit from code or some implementation constraints.

In architecture, a lot of the best work is started with sketches and some of the best architects still draw by hand. People forget that the creative process is not about tools. It’s about forming a vision, and then translating that vision into some form. You can use various tools as part of the process, but designers job is really communicating that vision.

Once you become the architect and the builder, or the designer and the developer, you start making more conservative bets. You gravitate to what you already know is feasible or supported. You make smaller iterations. You stop dreaming something big. This is not design.

Designers, don’t do that. Your job is to imagine the future, and sometimes code and convention gets in the way. Use tools. Understand the domain. Get close to the medium.

But don’t lose your greatest strength ability to dream. Work with engineers to realize those dreams.

Designing in code is just a path to local maxima and ruin.

[Hari Om @uixhariom]

As a designer, one thing that constantly bothers me is not feeling good enough.
I can easily recreate or redesign something when I have a reference,
but when it comes to creating something original, my brain just goes blank.
And I keep asking myself, am I uncreative or just afraid to trust my thoughts?

Suddenly, you're 27.

You make your coffee, rush to work, come home around 7, and you're too tired to do anything except eat, scroll on your phone, and pass out.

Then you wake up, and do it all again.

And when Friday comes, maybe you go out, or maybe you're just too tired. Then, out of nowhere, it hits you.

How did everything pass by so quickly?

You don't even feel 27.

You still feel like that 17 year old kid who thought they had all the time in the world.

But somehow, 10 years just disappeared. And you start missing the past. The feeling of being young, excited, and clueless.

But then you realize, one day, you'll miss this, too.

Being 25, being confused, being tired, but still trying.

So maybe the trick is to slow down a bit and actually live this chapter before it also becomes just another memory.

The point is no matter what age you are, you’ll miss these days. Life gets busy sometimes and it’s always a good time to stop and smell the roses.

[Tee Godwin @Teegotwings]

Product Design is so crazy man, cos you could spend 3 hours on your desk only to realize you’ve designed only 2 screens.

Please tell me I’m not the only one????

[LEYE @leyeConnect]

Designing the product before landing page give you coherence in presentation and also assets to use on the landing page.

[Daniel @dknansong]

@sammyisagenius Oh hmmm 😭

[LEYE @leyeConnect]

The more exposed you are, the more your taste refines. What you call good design is based on what you have seen. You need to see people operating at a higher level of craft and let your taste calibrate differently.

You need to travel to broaden your lens.

@eaPeter5 @juliushamah Solid🔥

[Peter @eaPeter5]

A month ago, KargoLink was just sketches and late-night notes.
Today, it has an identity.

Thanks to @juliushamah , we now have branding that doesn’t just look good but also tells the story of trust, connection, and opportunity at the core of KargoLink.

It’s only the beginning.

[Daniel @dknansong]

@DesignsByGolem Sorry about that

[Daniel @dknansong]

@DesignsByGolem You can now

[Daniel @dknansong]

Designed a property management dashboard that gives landlords a clear view of properties, tenants, finances & maintenance.

The project didn’t go live, but I loved working on it & learned a lot along the way.
