Designing @shopify by day. Halfooling at night. Not an avid tweeter.

Over the last 2 years, AI didn’t just change my design workflow, it also changed where my attention went.

After reflecting on it, I decided to put it into writing (and drawings 😊).

Design at Shopify is having a moment. A big moment!
Incredible talent, and even stronger output.

I’m in Berlin for a few days, any recommendations?

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

@vinvan @gleb_sexy @figma Yes, it’s fixed. 🙏

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

Not sure what's going on lately with search in Figma, or if it's just me, but the closest match is almost always at the end of the list... @figma why? 🙃😅

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

Got a special delivery today.
Thanks @Shopify 💚

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

@rogie @figma Thanks Rogie! ♥️

There’s always more where that came from.

@CynthiaSavard @Shopify @glencoates @harleyf @tobi Woah! That pin looks so cool.
Congratulations on 9 years Cynthia. It’s been a real privilege working with you. 💚

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

Last week I had the privilege to close the @hatchconference, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity. 🫶

A special thank you to all the kind souls who took the time to come chat with me after my talk, your words of encouragement and insights mean the world to me. 💛

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

For those of you who’ve been asking.

Polaris v12 is here!

Shopify admin's new design language is now stable in Polaris tokens and components.

We've updated the Figma UI kit, design docs, and migration guide to help you work with v12.

@tobi Thanks Tobi! 🙌

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

Thanks for the love @HonzaTmn!

[Jan Toman @HonzaTmn]

Polaris team released a new version of their design system and my favorite part is the page with their design principles for a new Shopify design language.

On point, using great language, actionable with examples for consuming designers. So well done 👏

The Aftermovie for Hatch Conference 2023 is here 🙌 and you all look stunning 🤩

Thanks to our sponsors @usertesting @zeroheight @Bloomberg @corebook @ELEKSSoftware @GetYourGuide

[Prerita Yadav @preritayadav]

The final talk at the @hatchconference was also its most beautiful one. @halfool_draws shares that the Design Processes are neither linear nor predictable but rather random and messy. Jose shared his own design journey. Sharing some stunning illustrations from the session below.

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

@preritayadav @hatchconference Thank you. You’re too kind. 💛

[José Torre @halfool_draws]

If you made it to #hatchconference, don’t forget to grab your print with my very egocentric illustration about the design process.

I love how it turned out.
Thanks @hatchconference ♥️

[José Torre @halfool_draws]
