Every week our design team has a slack thread where we post what we’ve worked on that week. It’s a fun way to see everyone’s work. Here’s a compilation of July.

Hope some of the other sculptures moved them more! I don’t have much justification other than that I really like the idea of a giant natural form contained in a box. I tend to like nature-highlighting art eg Turell’s skyspaces when they’re naturally lit. Also hope to get to City one day!

You can tell my job titles are extremely important because they have commas in them

💿 Mixtape’s menu design is sooo good. The concept, sound design, animation 💿

Started playing Mixtape over the weekend. Love games that are just a tight, contained story full of polish and fun.

Andor’s so smart. They filmed among real architecture like the Barbican and the Principe Felipe science museum and then just CGI’d in the city scape backgrounds and it feels so good.

Just now realizing you designed this! I'm a really big fan of the 6 dots, it seems like it should be infuriating but instead I really enjoy them. Reminds me of Matt Willey’s dotty layouts.

We put out new open source fonts today by @ambriganti.bsky.social. The line variant is my favourite but it’s fun to play with stacking variants on top of each other too. Hope you guys enjoy playing with them ✌️ vercel.com/font

Fontstand have a survey going right now for designers, you fill it out and get a bunch of free fonts from its members! Here's some experiments with some of them—Klim Type’s Maelstrom and Dynamo’s Whyte.

This focal length slider is incredibly satisfying to use 👌 Would love the option to have a 1.5x and 2x here—perhaps via settings? 35mm and 50mm always feels to me like _the_ camera focal lengths (and why I bothered getting the pro at all)

I’m heading to a “cocktail” dress code wedding in hot weather and thinking of wearing a silk scarf rather than a tie. Have any inspo shots for how to style a scarf with a suit that’s a little less flamboyant than the usual? Currently thinking either tucked under an open shirt or with a white vest
