Have you ever wondered how product managers turn chaos into a symphony? Our latest episode, featuring the perspicacious Simon Berry who shines a light on the crucial role these maestros play in harmonizing user needs with project realities. From the stormy beginnings of a product's life to its standing ovation in the market, we chat about everything that makes or breaks its success. We promise you'll come away with a renewed appreciation for the delicate balance of art and science in product management.
Dive into the heart of the tech world with us as we unravel the subtle yet impactful differences between product management and project management. Hear firsthand accounts of the tightrope walk balancing business pressures and customer ecstasy. Then, eavesdrop on the secret language of UX professionals and developers as we share strategies for better collaboration that could spell the difference between a digital masterpiece and a one-hit-wonder. Simonβs extensive experience in the startup and FMCG landscapes brings a richness of insights that you simply can't miss.
To cap things off, we get real about the agile development process, sprint estimations, and our collective drive to 'fail fast' and learn faster. We also detour through the world of personal finance apps, contrasting their quirky features and understanding what makes users tickβor kick. And for a little extra spice, we share our gripes with apps like Spotify when they hit a sour note. It's an episode that fuses tech talk with real-world wisdom, all underscored by the hum of user experience. Join us for a session that's as informative as engagingβwith a side of laughter.Support the show

It seems that people are very often confusing a Design System with a component library. The differences are nuanced, drawing the line between those two will be hard, and thereβs no right or wrong β but maybe this story might help us understand those differences a little bit better, and maybe it will help us understand the effort it takes to build and maintain a Design System.
It is more than just a UI Library. The whole purpose of a Design System is to define the design principles, style guide, patterns, content tone, and the rules and specifications of the βreusableβ components. These rules are very specific to the product and can differ from company to company.
When does a UI library turn into a design system?
For a design system to thrive and survive, it needs a sufficient level of management:
Whoβs making the decisions? Modern design systems have a product manager whoβs driving decisions, assertively aligning with partners, and serving as the go-to person.Whoβs doing the work? Sustaining a design system can involve a significant amount of design, development, writing, and other work done by people committed (at least partially, > 4hr/week) to the endeavour.Whoβs paying for it? Itβs near impossible for a system to survive long-term without a sponsor deliberately providing a budget in the form of properly allocated time.What are each of you working on right now, and where do you record and prioritise things you might work on later? Yup, time for task management, which many high-performing teams increasingly formalise into a backlog over sprints using tools like Trello and Jira.What can your customers (products using the system) expect over the next 6β12 months? Donβt discount the power of an effective, concisely communicated system roadmap. It generates awareness, discussion, faith that youβve got your act together, and trust that what you do provides for what they need.A Design System isnβt a Project. Itβs a Product, Serving Products.

Design systems have become a key part of user experience, design and development, but what should it consist of?
We have a good old poke around, question atomic design, figure out audiences and how to effectively communicate what the core concept of design systems are, why we use them and is Brad Frost right.Should print and digital guidelines fit into a single system?
We chuck in the patterns and chuck out the chintz, with topical tangents, wrapped in the UX of a squidgy scotch egg.

So whatβs the difference between design language and tone of voice? Where are the boundaries between the tone of voice and design language, and who leads the strategy of these? Are they interchangeable?
In literature, the Tone of Voice refers to the authorβs feelings towards the subject, as expressed through the writing itself. Writing for the web is obviously different from writing prose (or at least it should be since web users read very little.) Still, every scrap of writing on a page (from body copy to button labels and other UX copywriting) contributes to the tone of voice weβre using to speak to our users (https://www.nngroup.com/articles/tone-of-voice-dimensions/).
Visual communication is exceptionally complicated. Itβs diverse, boundless, and relentless. To induce a sense of clarity and coherence to it, we need to establish a series of constraints that will help us communicate with our end-users. This is where Design Language comes into play (https://www.uxpin.com/studio/blog/design-language/)
Why are these important, and how can navigate those tricky workplace politics?

In this short, Paul Wilshaw takes on the subject of colours, their use and accessibility.
The way you can think about this in every single colour in your design system should have a definition. What does it do? Exactly the same as a button or an icon or some other piece of design colours should do exactly that same thing. And why do we do this? Because colours are used, and with accessibility and colours, they shouldn't be used on their own to define things, but colours do have the impact β the same things as tone of voice or repeatable and functional things that help users to navigate your app, your website, your service, or whatever you're doing.
Colours shouldn't just be abstract, they need a purpose and need to have their own use and place.

In this episode, we look at packaging design and how different needs and requirements can change the way you design. We also discuss how consideration for disabilities, care for our environment, and other factors can influence your decisions as a designer. Brackish Mung or Is it time to rethink packaging design?
Some packaging is overly bloated and psychologically affects our purchase decisions, we look at some of the dark UX around packaging and how clear consistent labels, braille and colour accessibility should be used by default, rather than those bags of crisps with 90% air!

Like every good superhero, they have an origin story. Faster Horses Podcast is no different, in this special episode we talk about the name of our podcast and that famous quote (somewhat dubiously) attributed to Henry Ford: βIf I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.β
What does this mean for user experience? We talk about the meaning behind the quote and why talking to your customers really matters.
