Posted to What I really want from a design tool: stateful components, Mar 26, 2018 Posted to So, I'm buying a new MacBook. Question is, which one?, in reply to Barbara M. , Jul 10, 2017 It takes 5 seconds to turn down the volume because pressing the button just opens the volume slider—in a different position— and doesn't actually turn down the volume.
Just as a heads up – you don't need to do this. You can just rest your finger on the volume icon and, without lifting it, move left or right to adjust the volume. Same with the brightness icon.
Posted to How do you prototype a conversational interface such as chatbot?, Mar 02, 2017 Use something like Chatfuel.
You can get a functional Messenger bot up and running in under 15 minutes. Super easy way to test conversation.
Posted to Conversational Form - turning web forms into conversations, Nov 28, 2016 Some cool tech work, for sure.
From a design perspective I'm not really sold – seems like a solution in search of a problem.
Posted to Nicholas Windsor Howard - The Apple Goes Mushy Part II, Jul 29, 2016 Wow. I didn't realise how often interface elements were hidden behind the option key.
That's inexcusably bad design.
Great article, Nicholas. Some very well thought out criticism.
Posted to Site Design: IDEO, in reply to Philip Dickinson , Apr 18, 2016 LOL.
What an oversight. I'll let him know. Thanks, Philip!
Posted to Site Design: IDEO, in reply to Ankit Joshi , Apr 14, 2016 I know, right!
A friend of mine uses yellow on his portfolio and I've always thought it looks great.
More sites should go for it.
Posted to Show DN: AARK Watches, Sep 07, 2015 I love the products! I'd definitely buy the Marble - Nero one if it was a bit closer to payday ;)
The only feedback I would offer to the designer is:
I really don't think a hamburger menu is necessary for a site with 4 links.
The hamburger switching on hover to a full menu is a little clunky/confusing. I went to click on it and ended up accidentally navigating to the Support section because it changed to a nav bar as I hovered. Kind of an unexpected behaviour!
The body copy size is way too small! 11px was very difficult for me to read.
So cool, though. Great to see some good design coming out of Australia. I've definitely added the Marble - Nero watch to my 'Rainy Day' bookmark folder.
Posted to AMA: Koen Bok, Co-Founder of Framer. At Sofa and Facebook before., Aug 20, 2015 Just wanted to say thankyou. Your work at Framer is incredibly inspiring!
Posted to Is there more to wireframing than boxes and arrows?, in reply to Chris Elphick , Aug 20, 2015 I definitely recommend Sketch. Very very fast and very easy to use. I started using Sketch + Principle yesterday and I think I'm in love.

If you're purely looking at this from a prototyping perspective, then Axure has been doing this with dynamic panels for a long time.
