I'm very honored to share my latest Inside Design feature on @cv today. I had the opportunity to do an interview with teenage engineering's elusive co-founder and vp david möllerstedt https://read.cv/jdsimcoe/inside-design-at-teenage-engineering

I've been LOVING Japanese iced pour overs lately. 👀🧊 To make one yourself, you'll need a Hario V60 (or a similar brewing method), Hario V60 filter, gooseneck kettle, scale, grinder, carafe/server, and ice cubes.

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Overcomsumption has tainted the expectation of creative output . 

Original concepts not only require adequate time to produce but most importantly the breathing room for one to experience and process life as it unfolds.

“It is not unusual to hear leaders talk about the national responsibility to manufacture, I thought it was interesting that he talked about a nation’s responsibility to design.” - J. Ive https://stevejobsarchive.com/exhibits/objects-of-our-life

Some users browse. Some users locate. Some users ask support how to browse and locate.

today was another reminder that trust in corporate leadership absolutely needs to be earned, not given based on tenure, track record, or any other nonsensical metric

The design isn’t the evolution. The design is the meaningful creation of something.

Bold, crazy, magnificent ideas; or quiet sometimes.

A lil more about the design behind our season 2 cover art. The day and night represent us working on the production around the clock. The microphone is the actual microphone @kotsky uses for recording, and if you look closely you’ll find some fine paper grain too 📄

After months of planning and preparation we (me and @kotsky) are happy to announce that our podcast is back with the 2nd season! In this season we continue to rant about design, meet fantastic people and experiment new forms of storytelling. We hope you will enjoy the production.

Ever since I saw LoveFrom’s Astra Carta seal for The Sustainable Markets Initiative, I knew it would make a beautiful Apple Watch face. Here’s my attempt at adapting its celestial design to the small screen. 💫

Sometimes just simply looking at this animation is already a pleasure

I made a small app that helps you log your reading. It’s called “Now Reading”. Available on App Store. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/now-reading/id6627332935

One of the best line I heard today: “Taylor Swift minus Nirvana gives you Starbucks.”

Personally, if I wanted choice I'd stick to Android and Linux. I just want things to work, and that's why I want to switch to iOS and macOS. Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I've used pretty much every mainstream OS except for iOS and they all suck in unique ways

Rick Rubin ties the success of art to numerous factors. One of which I really like is "the mood of the culture". I think that's a really good framing, which can be used to explain many other things.

Microsoft planner is overcomplicated and does not even support drag and drop 🤌

A photos taken in Singapore back in 1960s by Singaporean photographer Foo Tee Jun. I gasped every time thinking about how fast and big the country had changed in only half a century.

Deleted Instagram account today, feeling I’ve regained a large amount of freedom.

They boast about adding gamification to their user experience, but it’s just badges, points, and credits. Now they wonder why engagement is low and conversions aren’t soaring. The issue is, it’s not about the badges, points, or credits—it’s about the psychology.

beautiful people - I wonder how do you come up with a file naming system to name all your design system files under one folder in Figma?
