Have you read or listened to any of our recommendations? Let us know what you think!
The Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman?
Hooked by Nir Eyal with Ryan Hoover?
Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die by Chip Heath and Dan Heath ?
Atomic Habits by James Clear
These books are well written and make it easy to understand complex concepts, such as user-centered design, effectively communicating ideas, and building habits.?
When working with products, it’s crucial to think in a user-centered way; including design in every process should be the norm.?
-Valentina Wilberger, Product Designer
I enjoyed Domain-Driven Design by Eric Evan. In my blog post, I walk through the book's main contributions and what I found valuable. ?
-Raul Bajales, Director of Engineering?
Design Better podcast interview with Scott Berkun on his book How Design Makes the World
I subscribe to the “Design Better Podcast,” and in their most recent episode, they interviewed Scott Berkun, a designer and the author of How Design Makes the World.?
In simple terms, the book teaches everyone what good design is and why it’s so important. Berkun talks to designers about evangelizing design and explaining its benefits to the rest of the organization. The book also touches on how to make an organization more design mature. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand how design touches their everyday lives.
-Roberto Montoya, Managing Partner?
