Design is more than just a solo show

This picture is my former PED blog to do the revision, the design of the homepage banner, I like very much.

"Design is more than a solo show", I understand that there are two meanings:

1. A designer is not only to design their own good, but also to share experience and skills to other designers.

2. Throughout the company's level, the design (department) should not be a solo show, but also to the UCD design ideas spread to other departments, so that all people are more aware of what the design is to do, its significance and where.

2:1 more meaningful (in fact 2 is the extension of 1), not only to improve the level of the designer team, but also to improve the design of the entire team, we often hang on the tip of the "Universal user experience" that is the meaning.

Even though the big companies are already very "popular" user experience, no matter what the role of a person, open mouth is "user experience." But there are not many people who really understand and really do the user experience. Designers should have the ability to sell: Explain your design to others, tell them why, and gradually improve their "aesthetic" level.

The improvement of team level can not only reduce the difficulty of the designer, but also reduce the cost of communication, and finally, it is easier to produce pure design scheme.

My own this aspect does very very not enough, is not good at expressing, also does not like the expression, has hated those who the glib tongue since childhood. But now more and more want to become a glib tongue.

So far, I like to work with two groups of people: 1. A person who understands the user experience, he can do design with me; 2. I don't know anything about design, I don't want to ask, let me do it. There is also a person I am extremely afraid of: do not understand the design, but also love to tell the finger. Unfortunately, this kind of people most often meet.

I hope that when I meet a third person, I can turn him into the first type. This is one of my goals for myself in the professional field for the next 2 years.

Design is not only a solo show, this is the team's designers should play a responsibility.
