Dominykas Rimša on Learning design on your ownProduct & UX Designer
Design is a part of our everyday life. Whether it’s the way that door knob works, the way that fork holds in your hand, or the way you share your daily adventures on social media, it’s all designed. However even though as a craft design is very much a user-centered discipline it has also become an integral part of businesses thus shifting towards more profit-centered ways.
So the big challenge arises in the intersection between what the user needs and what the business needs. And this is where most of todays designers are balancing between. This clash of needs and sometimes a clash of what the designer and the business are advocating for can result in products that impact our lives in negative ways.
This is why now more than ever it’s important for designers to take a more ethical stance and take responsibility for the impact we create.
