They are never ever going to see how those sausages got made. Not the design production or the Design System. Imagine if I jumped into github and refactored someone’s code, or rearranged the product backlog I’d get fired. Other than leaving some comments on a design I’d say it's simply way too intimate to expect to be moving my rectangles around.

Achieve the lifestyle you’ve been looking for by blurring the lines between apartment and hotel. Our fully furnished apartments include study desks, couches, beds, and dining tables. At The 505, you’ll enjoy modern living presented with classically-inspired elegance. Leases are all-inclusive – greatly reducing the hassle and cost of student housing.
It's Time to Lease Your Place
A cross-functional design team needs to be a few different skills and knowledge. And don’t get me started on design tasks, thats a surefire way to hire the wrong person. Get some edge cases and a few crazy ones.
Offices
People who look at their job by looking at life, bringing with them a life of experiences to base their craft on. It’s a fundamentally different way of thinking. One that is at the core of our culture. I recently applied for some work at a FinTech and as a Lead Product Designer I would join a team of TEN humans solely working on ‘maintaining the design system’. Also there 10 ways to make stuff now.
Their culture, how 50 people all love each other. The residences at The 505 represent the pinnacle of student living. Our studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans, are designed with style and comfort in mind.
Employees frequently ride their bikes to work, walk downtown to eat at top-rated restaurants, and enjoy happy hours at one of the numerous local breweries.
Sprint one: Design Recruitment
This in theory sounds great, streamline the process to create less process. Again I see how this makes sense, but in reality good design does not work like product, it’s hardly even agile. It’s messy and unstable, it’s not a set of tasks, its sometimes organic and always emotional.
Part of the issue now is that anybody can be a product designer, it’s become a catch-all term for anyone who can do some wireframes and create some journeys. Throw in a persona or two and bosh. Half the time that person is a ‘something else’ autodidact who did a boot camp. And thats cool if you have design chops but the rest of us are trying to survive in a field of cheap labour and bad rectangles. Specialists are preferable to generalists in the context of a well rounded digital product design team. It’s more expensive and a greater management overhead, but it’s worth it IMO.

OUR VISION
It’s not about what the project will look like. ‘Making Product Design Great Again’ means falling back in love with design again, making time for the exploration, the craft and finesse. Less time in meetings, less time in JIRA, more conversations about design. It’s understanding the problems to solve. It’s taking risks and making great products.
We understand that each project is unique, and that details showcase this element. The opportunity to make a project as unique as the people it’s intended for, is our commitment to you. Again the user does not care about your story, they just want to use and buy products and services (stuff) with the least amount of friction. If we are putting the user first (and we better be) then the product needs to be better.
It needs to be faster, less clutter, familiar and congruent. Well it’s great if they know some layout or colour theory, bit of testing? Design recruitment briefs are a dumpster fire (sorry) like what even is ‘pixel perfect’ or ‘Figma wizard’? Product design is not pixel perfect nor is it reduced to a set of tool proficiencies. I’d take a talented candidate who was a bit fiddly with Figma, over someone with average design skills but who names their layers and knows what boolean variables are.
