I dunno, a lot of professional design these days of extreme flatness looks like stuff I’d have done in the ‘00s while developing something just to have some kind of design and structure, then everyone would see it and be like “the program’s great but of course we’ll need to get the designers on it, ha ha, programmers and design, so bad at it, am I right?”
A lot of it would still get that reaction, I think, if a programmer presented them instead of a designer, and these look to me like they’d be among them.
- fenomas 2y agoEh, having worked halfway between coding and design my whole career, I'm ambivalent. Design is just one of those things that everyone is confident they have an informed opinion about, even if they've spent a lifetime total of zero seconds thinking about what the criteria for a good design should be, let alone how to apply them. I think most every designer learns early on to ignore all the "but that's just..." comments, and rightly so IMHO. That said: > A lot of it would still get that reaction, I think, if a programmer presented them instead of a designer, and these look to me like they’d be among them. Weren't the logos in TFA made and voted on by programmers?
