When you hear "design", what do you think about? — Industrial design (eletronics, machinery) — Interior design (furniture) — Web / App design — Other (systems, sound, games, architecture...) I'm often surprised at the results of this conversation

I think most of us will go straight for web / app design, but I find when I talk to people outside tech and tell them I'm a designer, they almost never fail to ask "Oh yeah? What do you design?" I'm always slightly annoyed at that, like "What do you think I design lol" but it is a legitimate question 😂

I like to think about design from the broadest and most abstract point of view. For me practically everything that surrounds us has a design and someone has been part of the decisions of its form or its motives, whether good or bad...

roughly: something new -> something engineered -> something designed when I hear it I think of the act of design in this context

Good questions. Personally I think about "design" as the very broad application of word as a it pertains to intentionally structuring and creating anything. My own work spans a wide variety of fields of "design" and I've always been bothered by the narrow view most people have (graphic, architectural, interior, etc.)

The first two. In my head web / app is called UI / UX.

Conversationally, there's always a context that narrows it down. Gesturing towards a building exterior, nice chair, cool logo, or interesting headphones. If I nosh on the word, I taste 'intentional form' but it's vague. Or, like, "to make with care, but not for eating" lol
