There is a great debate on the future of AI, the potential for abuse, its impact on our work, and the way our entire societies are organized.

And why I believe we are on the way toward a completely tokenized design future! Tokens are all the rage in the design world in the last few years, and it’s especially true after Figma announced their new ‘variables’ capability at Config. Now, before this new announcement — none of the big tools natively supported design tokens functionality, so people had to hack it with plugins, verbal agreements with the dev teams (which are difficult), spreadsheets and other dark magic, so it’s mainly the bi

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
