Call up the Michaels and bust out as many classroom gimmicks as you can because Did I Do That? is wrapping up our trip to the Old Bay (aka San Francisco) by going back to school. The legendary Bob Aufuldish (partner at Aufuldish & Warriner and Professor of Design at CCA) joins Sean in Bob's San Anselmo studio to talk about designer golfballs, the challenge of being taken seriously as a young professor, and typeface impulse buys.Bob's long-time practice with his wife and partner Kathy Warinner, Aufuldish and Warinner, can be found online at aufwar.com. You can find the interview Bob did a few years back for AIGA SF with fellow CCA professor Eric Heiman on the AIGA SF website—that article expands on a few of the stories we talked through here and is a ton of fun! You can buy Bob's type work as FontBoy on MyFonts, or just check out the (lovely but frozen in amber) FontBoy website at fontboy.com.This episode was recorded February 1, 2025 in Bob's studio in the wilds of Marin, in beautiful San Anselmo, California. Thank you so much to Bob and Kathy for hosting me (and letting me scarf down so many of their Trader Joe's cookies while I was out there)! Hosted on Acast.

CM14: Navigating the politics of user research w/ John Hicks

This is episode #014 of Custom Made and I’m joined again by James Utley, Design Architect here at Dialexa, and we are talking with our guest this week, John Hicks - Sr. User Experience Researcher at font design company Monotype. John is a designer, researcher, and educator living in Houston, Texas. As a visual communication designer, John has spent the last 15 years designing for brands such as Mars foods, Dr. Pepper, Pizza Inn, Metro PCS, Samsung and more. In a past life, John moonlighted as an art director for various design agencies, followed by a brief stint at the University of North Texas where he taught undergraduate communication design. Since 2011, his professional efforts have been focused on design research. Following designer and educator Victor Papanek’s lead, John believes in taking a human-centered approach to design in order to champion the needs of users and to create meaningful experiences for them. His combined design and research experience provides John with a unique skill set that allows him to critically examine and solve design problems with solutions that are not only evidence-based but also aesthetically pleasing. In his current role, he is a Sr. UX researcher for Monotype where he fights the good fight to bring exceptional experiences to the MyFonts platform. On this weeks episode, we are talking with John about the politics of user research to inform the building of new products or developing new features for existing products. I think everyone recognizes, at least in theory, the importance of user research to launching successful products. Just assuming what users want is a risky thing and research helps mitigate that risk. Hearing from users first hand creates alignment and empathy for the users need. But user research is still the area of product development that gets squeezed, or in some cases ignored, and so we wanted to discuss how to navigate this challenge. During our discussion, we break down the barriers we have each experienced with organizations doing user research. These include: - Concerns about the investment of time vs getting into the design and build of the new product - Fear of negative feedback (or product failure) - Fear of the unknown - Product teams assuming they already know what is best - Fear of promising too much to the user And we give our thoughts on how to overcome these barriers by: - Understanding your user research options - Accepting that it is ok to fail, or get negative feedback about a feature or even product. In fact, all types of feedback should be welcome - Not looking for solutions just insights, no empty promises to users - Clearly communicating the user research process and expectations to get buy-in from across your product stakeholders and from the upper levels of your organization Be sure to tweet at me (https://twitter.com/dougplatts) and let me know what you think of the show.

This week on the show we were joined by Ryan and Don Clark of Invisible Creature. We got a chance to talk to them about their history, their design work, their inspiration, and we even got a chance to ask them some questions we collected from listeners. We’re also giving away a prize this week. We’ve got a $100 gift certificate to MyFonts.com, so if you’d like to win it, call in to 646-402-5686 ext 20248 and leave us your best or worst client story. We will be playing the best calls on the show, so change names if you must. We want to keep this fun though, so nothing slanderous. Also, if you’re a student and you don’t have clients, we’ll take a great professor story. And if you’re international and don’t want to call, you can send us an mp3 of your story to readbetweentheleading@gmail.com. More detailed shownotes can be found at http://rbtl.us/post/99736282
