Meetup: Research through Design

Design Disciplin proudly presents: our first IRL event in collaboration with Got UX (IxDA Gothenburg Chapter), hosted by Recorded Future.

Got UX meetups are a pillar of the design community in Sweden. In this edition, we'll be talking about "Research through Design" – a way of materializing knowledge based on design work.

With Research through Design, designers can take part in scientific research and advanced education through creative work. This is the breeding ground for ideas and methods in modern human-centered design and beyond.

Venue: Recorded Future | Västra Hamngatan 24 / 411 17 Göteborg

The Secret to Great Design

IDEO cofounder Bill Moggridge – known for coining the term "interaction design" – once said that "the only way to experience an experience is to experience it." On that note, I feel like the topic of today is best suited for a face-to-face discussion. I'll let you find out over at YouTube, or perhaps the podcast. Enjoy.

Reviewing the Cosmos Landing Page

Our second Masterclass reviews the landing page of Cosmos, a "Pinterest alternative" for creatives. Starting from how I first encountered Cosmos on the website of another designer, we journey through the experience of visiting their landing page. Cosmos' website offers us many lessons in layout, typography, animation, and interaction design on the web.
