More about curiosity, creativity and redesigns

We continue discussing curiosity - a key designerly behavior. Designers ask a lot of questions - of clients, stakeholders and users to truly understand and empathize with users before translating those insights into action to improve users' experiences.

Genuine curiosity is like a muscle that trained and strengthened through regular exercise. Begin by acknowledging that we don't know something. Research it, ask questions, adopt a beginner's mindset and don't be afraid to appear foolish.

This issue contains links to articles about creativity, redesigns of Twitter and the Whitehouse logo, and upcoming Super Bowl ads.

As Bezos said in his recent stepping-down-as-CEO announcement: "Let curiosity be your compass!"

It's been years since February's dates lined up so neatly... and a few more years until it happens again, so enjoy while you can!

I hope you enjoyed this issue, and the articles on the designerly behavior of curiosity and the other interesting reads.

I'm looking for feedback, of the brutally honest kind, so this can improve over time. You can reach me at lycerejo (at) gmail.com - thank you!
