Design is more highly valued than ever, but in many ways it’s still considered a “junior” discipline to its peers. Why is that? And what can be done to remedy this situation? In this talk, Adobe Inc. Principal Designer Khoi Vinh argues that design has built a rarefied culture and obscure language that, though initially useful, has inadvertently limited what the profession is capable of.

This talk was filmed at Leading Design New York 2019. Find out more about the event details here - https://2019.leadingdesignconf.com/newyork
