Designer News
Where the design community meets.
Always appreciate a look inside the birth of a start up brand. Particularly enjoyed the bit about shifting away from the original name and the decision around moving forward with color.
Big fan of Jake's site, what did he build it with?
Thanks Alex, that 8tracks UI is really fun. Super fast too.
Rad Pad is another one I just discovered that has a UI that's closed to AirBNB.
Agree completely. I think doing something like this is more an exercise in getting your work in front of people quickly and show off ability to think outside the box using prototyping software. I personally wouldn't consider something like this as a permanent, searchable, portfolio replacement.
Ok that's amazing in so many ways.
Also a great way to showcase that you're actually familiar with prototyping tools (especially if the job description calls for it)
I've been using Ember for all my screenshots, assets and other design related things. This does look pretty slick though. If it had Sketch / Affinity Designer file support I'd probably give it a try (something that Ember is missing also).

Thanks for sharing this Paul.
This is a great read for those out there looking to put together a Case Study for Product Designer roles. Really appreciate showing the existing app and the research behind redesigning the app.
Also, always great to see the team mentioned (who did what) at the start of the project.
