I'm excited and happy to be here for the launch of the #Figma Global Design Community in SA #figmacommunitysa

The design role is constantly changing, keeping up with it can be challenging. Namnso Ukpanah #figmacommunitySA

Trying to find an answer to my question (based on the idea that the more designers we have in Africa the better we can deal with our challenges): How do we develop people into great designers (UX) with skills? #figmacommunitySA

Join our next free speaker event on June 6th: Ralph Borland brings together local craft and tech to make African Robots. meetu.ps/e/Fhzd8/dTC9v/d

Seriously?

There are those who believe that ‘designing for the common good’ can only happen if you’re working in Gov’t or for an NGO. Today, Patagonia’s design team proved even a clothing manufacturer can deliver a meaningful design: bearsears.patagonia.com

This looks like a good new story: kickstarter.com/projects/brand… #GoodNewsPaper

Had a design-technical trade-off discussions. Design lost. *customer will win, I think.

I'm looking for a research lab, based in Cape Town, to complete a research study. Know any? Thanks. #Lazyweb

Was quite an experience. Interesting spaces. #AmazonLife

Tonight's meetup is about practical advise on how to design #UX for all, including users with different physical or cognitive experiences. Please join. #IxD. meetu.ps/e/F7R8c/dTC9v/d

Happily reminded, this morning, of Mark Twain's beautifully put quote on the challenge of simplicity: “I didn’t have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.”
