How 1TLabs Operates
Principles
TL;DR I believe in customer first.
Understand the Customer/User
Using available data, the design should understand and cater to the customer first, business second.
Design for delight
According to Scott Belsky, the most powerful (& affordable) driver of product growth is surprise, delight, & intrigue.
Design for inclusivity
In 2021, 97.4% of analyzed web pages failed to meet one or more of the criteria from the WCAG 2.0 Level AA. We should do better.
Simplicity is Sophistication
Antoine de Saint-Exupery said perfection is achieved "not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”
Measure Design Outcomes
Without measurable outcomes for design work, it cannot be clear whether success was achieved.
Progress Over Process
Process helps large teams to work together efficiently, but progress is always more important.
