Open Design

As designers, we’re pretty familiar with the idea of “designing openly” and of sharing often with our teammates. Designing openly, however, is only a stepping stone for truly open design.

At Figma, they define open design as opening up the definition of who can become a designer, opening up our processes to include our teammates, and finally, opening up the ability to work with the greater community as a whole. This talk explored how they’ve been embracing open design at Figma, and how it could define the future of the design industry.
