We are very much looking forward to getting lost in the exhibition metropolis that is ExCeL London this week for Reset Connect; hundreds of organisations and thousands of attendees exploring how to create a more sustainable world.

See you there!

Our User Research and Experience Design team had a brilliant time at UX London at CodeNode London this week. Absolutely action-packed and infinitely more exciting than what they returned to the office to watch... ⚽️ 😐 Some highlights included: → Dr. Harry Brignull of deceptive.design discussing deceptive UX patterns and the way the community can work towards creating a better web experience → Alicia Calderón talking about how to collaborate between designers and engineers, working on our communication styles and spaces throughout the project. Anti design hand over, pro design/dev collaboration → Maggie Appleton talking about the squishy side of AI (aka Shoggoth), what it's good at and why are expectations of it need to be recalibrated → Peter Boersma talking about Design Ops and organisation roadmaps → Brad Frost, pioneer of Atomic Design, was fun for Maxim to fan boy near. His workshop was really great in building dependable design systems, freeing up time for designers to focus on important stuff like good UX practice and solving specific problems, not just redesigning a button for the 100th time → Matt Webb who mapped out AI tools and how they are slotting together. Great talk and he showed some examples of his AI clock, which generates a Poem every minute (but doesn't always get the time right... 🤣) → Tom Kerwin in his multiverse mapping workshop. Taking multiple paths and possibilities, mapping it out and making sense of it in a quick, collaborative and iterative way Thanks Clearleft for a great couple of days 👌 #ExperienceDesign #UXDesign #ProductDesign

We hope our friends at Nordoff and Robbins have a fantastic day at the Northern Music Awards, celebrating brilliant artists and raising money to bring more music therapy to northern communities. Good luck all!
