I had this kind of relationship with a designer / photographer I worked on a side project with a couple of years back. He'd have no idea how to implement something if it required more than just hacking on already-existing code, but he had a great eye for detail and was excellent at not letting something sit unfinished. So I would talk out with him the various features we could add, then we'd agree on what to pursue, I'd get it up and running and he'd clean up parts, file bugs and be a good partner for getting the full widget out the door. At my day job I'm usually the one re-architecting something-or-other on the back end when I know I should be doing more mundane things more of the time.
- Isamu 16y agoYes. I had a great working relationship with a UX designer. This is how it is supposed to work - a give and take, and complementing each other's strengths. Alan Cooper would have you think that the hacker cannot overrule the designer, but in a respectful relationship with equals it can work well. Alas I didn't realize how good I had it until it was over. Ok, this is starting to sound like a tv drama.
