Salt and pepper shakers are products that need to have a simple design. You don't want to add too much seasoning to your food, and the shakers should not get clogged or be built in a way that’s hard to use. That's how we approach developing design products: "How can we give designers the essential tools without overdoing it?" We listen to the design community and tackle the most evident pain points. And you know what? We discuss those very pains in our podcast. Featuring Natalie and Louise from the Icons8 team as they dive into the topics that matter to us and fellow designers.
What is a designer’s job?
What does a designer see when their life flashes before their eyes? A designer’s job isn’t all pixel-perfect designs layered upon beautiful visuals and smooth, animated prototypes. It’s also about rounding the corners here and there, which steals seconds that bleed into minutes and then hours of our time. While developers, illustrators, and copywriters can already delegate their mundane tasks to Copilot, Midjourney, and ChatGPT, why do UX designers keep recoloring default gray shapes by hand? And what place do AI tools have in the sphere of UI/UX design?
