Hi, everyone! 👋 I’m Joey, and I live in Columbus, Ohio, with my wife Kristen and our dog Ellie! I’m over at Webflow, working on our team’s design system, and enjoy teaching others about Figma. I’ve got a love for biking, sustainability, and connecting with others within design!

Replying to @joeyabanks

Cuuuuuute 😍 I, and I think everyone here, appreciate all the things you do for the design community. Been so cool to follow your progress from twitter to webflow! I bet you’re learning so much over there haha

Joey Banks

Aww thanks, Darian! I really appreciate you saying that. 🤗 Yes, Webflow is um, so much less dramatic without a hostile takeover happening as you’re trying to work.

 @
Replying to @joeyabanks

😅 I ended up with a new design VP in the middle of my team being activated and felt like it put us in limbo for a few months. Not as hostile, but I can relate with thinking how the heck can I be focused rn. So yeah, I understand. Glad to see you made it out in time tho 😆

Hey all! I’m Darian. I’m a self taught designer in the Portland Or area. Originally a freelancer as a side hustle, I worked my tail off in brand identity design for websites and eventually converted to doing design systems for product for big corps.

 @

I’m a huge design nerd, and love talking about it. But outside of my work, I like to tinker and make things… art, robots, 3d printing, comics, and all sorts of creative stuff. Basically, I just want to study and learn all the cool and interesting things out there What about you?

Emily Willis

Nice to meet you Darian! What kind of comics do you make in your spare time?

 @
Replying to @em_bird

I’m working on getting them posted publicly. Trying to figure out a good format, whether it’s a site for it, or through Instagram. It’s a comic that i want to have a homage to the space western genre I love so much. The only part I have on my phone rn is a background

Emily Willis

Oooh Space Western! Excellent! Hmu if you ever wanna talk hosting - I ran in the webcomics circle for years and I have thoughts I’m happy to share about how to best put comics up online! 😄

For sure. If I get to a point where I think I’m ready I’ll for sure reach out.

Replying to @nikhilv

Same here, I’ve been on the system side for both product and brand and could talk about this stuff for hours. How have you seen the design system grow through your tenure there?

Nikhil Venkatesh

Nice! Yeah I caught a bit of your work over on Design Twitter. When I started we had a 1-page style guide. Now we’re a larger team (5 product designers), and have a mostly complete Ui kit (with barely any docs), and it’s partially code-synced. Long way to go 😅

 @
Replying to @nikhilv

Haha it’s always a journey. That’s cool though that you have that many designers on it. I’ve always been a sole effort for the ones I’ve worked on. So it’s good that some companies do staff it out.

Nikhil Venkatesh

Oh haha no no, we’re 5 designers on the design team total. Just me and one other designer on the design system 😅

Novia Chao

Hi everyone!! Happy to be here ~ My name is Novia, I’m a UX designer at Konrad Group, a design agency based in Toronto, Canada. Love nerding out about systems, design tokens, beautiful UX, and recently have been trying to improve my visual skills through more branding as well.

Novia Chao

Outside of work, you’ll find me bouldering, exploring art galleries and new cafes, painting, playing guitar and singing - I love learning new tools and skills so you’ll probably find me nose-deep in a Framer or Spline tutorial too 🤣

 @
Replying to @novia

Haha this sounds like me. If there’s something new to try to expand how I think about tooling or systems I usually dive in deep right away. Bouldering also sounds fun and exhilarating lol What are some things that you’ve found useful in learning better visual design?

Novia Chao

For improving visual design, I’ve found immersing myself in as much design as possible has been amazing! A lot of this has been getting away from a screen and visiting a lot of my local galleries, and trying to be very intentional with observing the artist or designer’s craft

Novia Chao

Then browsing tons of inspiring sites and main thing that’s helped : saving them somewhere to reference later!! I’m just now putting it into practice with some poster designs, but excited to bring this into my UX work as well

Replying to @rhyswebber

Nice! I think often times people forget there’s a whole backside to the things that the clients get to see. Curious, do you enjoy the client side, or biz side more?

Rhys

To be honest, I enjoy both, they’re both different ways of working. In my experience B2C is a bit more creatively freeing whereas B2B is more technical and problem solving? Depends what mood I’m in haha

 @
Replying to @rhyswebber

I’m really good at technical design. I struggle a bit when it comes to making good consumer experiences. I don’t prefer the b2b side much though because I basically have no work I can put in my portfolio. lol I agree though, B2B is more of the problem solving which I enjoy

What a fun cross section with consumer commerce and ai. I’ve not cofounded anything, but I have run my own ventures and absolutely love working for myself most. What are some of the upsides to social impact projects and what were some of the hardest things with that?

Cathy Liu

Upsides: When I volunteer to design for social impact projects, I am usually very passionate about the topic, they hit the soul deeply in a different way. The project I worked on was COVID related in March of 2020

I can’t copy/paste the hex out of the app. I’m gonna guess it is the same color as your hat? Media conglomerates are fun, often there’s a lot of white-labeling behind the scenes and designing for multiple brands (: Do you like it so far? Or ever want to design other industries?

Nice! Icons are a great niche, especially if they’re focused on designing them within an existing brand I’m working on a complex tool that rips icons out of figma and syncs them with GitHub. I feel like figma has its own quirks that I never had when designing them in illustrator
