UX tip of the week
This is my last newsletter of the year. The tip this week is to carve out time to rest and recover — however little or as much as you need. See you in 2024!
Top 10 things worth sharing this week
Last week, the Indeed Design blog published an article I wrote about Futureproofing UX in the Age of AI.
Still new to AI? Two tech giants released free courses:
UX design system guru Dan Mall launched his new book Design That Scales: Creating a Sustainable Design System Practice.
This week I learned a bit more about PEST and 6 Forces business frameworks to help with external focused problem analysis.
A good starting point for practicing applied service design might be with internal customer support. See also: Service Design.
UX veteran Don Norman released a new online course based on his book Design for a Better World.
The creative industry released the biggest trends expected in graphic design in 2024: subscription-based agency work, brand sprints, de-packaging and sustainable luxury, moving type, real meets surreal, AI backlash, and designers creating products for designers.
“A career setback is not the end of your journey, but the beginning of a new one.” Raquel Piqueras shared a helpful perspective in their how to remove from a career crisis article.
For the love of color: Dutch artist A Boogert produced the famous 900 page catalogue of every conceivable color which is now available online.
In looking for tips on storytelling, I dug up this 4 minute gem from Kurt Vonnegut again.
Thanks for reading!
