Hey everyone!
We're the team behind Lettre.app, an iPad app designed to recapture the magic of handwritten letters in the digital age. We're bringing pen pals back! Write beautiful letters in your own unique handwriting on a virtual "paper" with customizable stationery. Draw or doodle whatever you want and send them deliberately worldwide. Collect unique, tradable digital stamps as you connect with pen pals from all over the globe.
We're currently in the process of refining our design and would greatly appreciate any feedback from the product design community! Here are some specific areas we'd love your input on:
We're a small team with a big passion for bringing back the art of letter-writing. Any feedback you can offer would be incredibly valuable as we continue to develop Lettre.app.
Thanks in advance for your time and expertise!
Basically just looking for any manufacturer/company that does custom designs for external hard drives. Like actual shape/material/look of hard drive not just the engraved logo ones.
I have a project for school (12th grade) and we need to design a product in the style of a particular designer. I chose Verner Panton. In case you wondered, my school is specialized in media design.
I did some research but couldn’t find much. Maybe you know better.
So what features are distinctive to Verner Panton‘s design? For example shape, color, material, etc?
My mac has following specs: 2,6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7, AMD Radeon Pro 5300M 4 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB, 16 GB 2667 MHz DDR4. I'm doing a lot of design work (Figma, Framer..). When buying a mac in 2024, which version would you go for?
Or: what are options to look into beyond Apple?

Like, would a furniture design company accept you? Or perhaps later in life you'd like to design furniture independently in your own buisness
Asking as a Year 11 :) Just to check cuz I on the courses Ive looked at, noone is really looking for high grades (like in medicine). But I imagine its competitive and GCSE grades come into account.
Also, whats the difference between product and industrial?

I found this website and I thought I should share, it has a lot of high quality design portfolio from top designers. It really helped me with inspiration to finish up my own design portfolio. Lots of great case studies and visual design styles to get inspiration. The website is called: Foleo
Would like to know if there any other resources that people use to get inspired when creating their portfolio.
Hi all, developing a new product for a project. It's a digital detox kit that helps you manage screen time and reduce stress. It comes with mindfulness exercises, offline entertainment options, and even a basic non-touch phone for important calls. Plus, it includes a lockbox for your phone, so you can take a break from the digital world whenever you need to. Could you help me out by taking this 2 minute survey to share your thoughts? Thanks!

I haven’t worked for over a year and I’m just getting back into designing specifically UI design. I’ll be working on a few personal projects to beef up my currently defunct/non-existent portfolio.
My work has always been kind of functional but lacking personality. I think I’m missing the brand/visual identity stuff.
I know it’s not something I can’t just tack on to what I’m doing currently, but where do I start? Do I need to go down the whole brand identity rabbit hole and start from scratch?
Are there any good book/courses/resources out there to get me started? Or any advice?
I was accepted to study product design (bachelor) at two universities: Otis College of Art and Design(California) and Willem de Kooning Academy (Netherlands).
At Otis, I would enroll in their toy design major, which is a huge interest of mine and the school is known for it.
I need to decide between the U.S and Europe, taking into account my European citizenship, which would make it easier to secure jobs and stay In the country long-term.
I don't know if Willem de Kooning is as good as Otis, and I worry about job opportunities in Europe in the product design area (or even toy design, hopefully).
Any advice would be appreciated.
Having a hard time at work and evaluating if work life balance is too shit for my pay. I work out of India
I'm reaching out to people on Facebook, to find people to try my product. They aren't responding. I wonder if Facebook isn't showing them my messages.
Essentially what I did was found Facebook posts, where people talked about the product category, and then I DMed them, saying I saw they used the product category and would appreciate some recommendations. I tried to keep the messages short, to not look like SPAM. I only have had one person even respond.
Any tips? Has anyone had any success approaching people online, to get their feedback? What worked? How did you do it?
Hi everyone! I'm doing the write-up for my A-Level Coursework, but i need help naming one of the joints I've used as I've literally been looking online for 10 minutes. It's a circular lid that twists on off, I've done my best to draw it out and I've added the photos, if anyone knows i'd be very appreciative!
The top image is what the actual lid goes into and the bottom is a side profile to shows how it fits in, I hope this is easy to understand, this project has sent me slightly insane
Is it as bad as they say?

Hey everyone, recently I was reading reviews for a product on Amazon. I couldn’t help but notice that the reviews seemed as if they were faked. How do you think sites like Amazon or other e-commerce store fronts could better enforce the legitimacy and authenticity of their product reviews?
Hello, I am looking for job boards that post product design internships. Do these exist?
