I spend an abnormal amount of time in my bathroom, mostly curating my shelves and applying toners, serums, and moisturizers (in that order). And if there was ever a spot in my apartment that could use a makeover (trust that there are plenty), the bathroom is at the top of the list. Sadly, retiling the floor and swapping out the vanity were all out of the question lest I kiss my security deposit goodbye, so I embarked on a mission to transform my bathroom through decor alone.

The web design industry adores buzzwords. We use them to describe everything from design fads (hello, Claymorphism ) to build technologies (nice to know you, headless ). It makes sense, as there needs to be a common way to refer to these entities. But sometimes these terms end up being incredibly abstract. And that can lead some unscrupulous people to leverage a buzzword for profit – even if there’s nothing much to sell just yet.

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.

From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.
