August Highlights

Written by Marwa Khalil

Welcome to the August Highlights, where we bring you a shortlist of our favourite UX, design and tech gems on the internet. If you missed last month’s highlight you can find it here.

This month was International Cat Day, so to celebrate we have featured some design thinking lessons that we can learn from cats. As well as that we have also featured an inspiring Desert Island Discs with Sheryl Sandberg.

We also have some great design articles on how to get started in UX, how to use empathy in design, a guide to accessibility as well a post on why Comic Sans isn’t as bad as you think it might be.

This month is also the last month to catch the Into the Unknown exhibition at the Barbican. This exhibition gives you a wonderful insight into the science fiction genre in all it’s guises.

💖 If you like this post share the love and give us a round of applause.

😻 If you have anything you want featured, why not get in touch? We would love to hear from you.
