A while back we asked people to drop their thoughts and reflections on design.
They shared how they became a designer, what they want a young designer to know, and the state of design as a whole.

I talked to @itsdpark for 30 minutes yesterday and found PMF
1 year.
That's how long @otherkindstudio has been operating. Last year, @vbahkk and I came together around one question: what kind of studio would we have wanted to exist when we were early career.
Interface design felt too narrow - We both love the process of design and the act of crafting something from first principles. Vanessa had a degree in industrial design while I had started my roots in architecture.
So, we didn't set out to build another brand or interface agency. We set out to build a sanctuary for creativity: a place to experiment, a place that celebrates craft, and a place where designers can flourish in flow state.
We both know what it feels like renting out creativity until there's nothing left. We've been learning how to combat that and build something meaningful.
Here's to more and the exciting projects to come. (we're doing more than interface next year)
otherkind is 1.
@itsdpark and I didn't start this because we wanted to build an agency.
we started it because we wanted to build a creative company where design could keep expanding.
a place to work on interesting problems with some incredible people (yall know who you are 👀) and companies, but also make our own things, follow weird ideas, host people, build tools, study beautiful things and spaces, and treat process like part of the output.
the deliverable is only one part of the work. the rest is the conversation around it, how people start seeing the problem differently, how collaboration feels like a friendship, and what new thoughts get exchanged along the way 💌
year two will be more open: more process, more internal brand lab, more experiments, more WIP, more community, more of what we are interested in WHILE it is still alive.
thanks for following along while we figure it out c:
