#17 - Are You Thinking About Your Users?
4/9/2021
45:51
In this podcast, I talk about designers not thinking about their users when they design. looking at pretty colors and nice layouts is nice, but do your users really understand what they are looking at. Are the things you're presenting to them clear? Stop looking at websites like Dribbble and Behance with pretty UI Designs. Start looking at work from real companies that put millions of dollars behind creating a great product.
