Until Sunday

After a long debate with myself, I decided to leave X/Twitter. I feel deeply hopeless and depressed reading some comments in my stream. 2025 looks so bleak through X lenses. Find me at bsky.app/profile/chiara…

…. And yes! We did it again! The new course of @vitalyf is now out! It has a new theme, but it is the same fantastic experience with new and insightful content! My heartfelt thanks to the incredible team, @trysmudford and @cassiecodes!

@ChShersh Same goes for designers, unfortunately. And most of the time we are even more qualified than our US collegues. 🥲

Awww! I have never seen my illustrations so big on the screen… soooo nice! 😍😍 And apparently there is a special discount available too for Vitaly’s UX design course! @smashingconf

On the stage to share my design for innovative ideas that may change the future. Thank you @smashingconf for this opportunity and for another amazing event. #smashingconf

@darius Interesting. How were you testing UI with Steve before going back to the design board? How was decided if something was good to go? Because I am fine with the described process, but unfortunately I also learnt that my logic (and the one of the CEO) doesn’t always apply to users.

How can designers design THE future (and not ‘FOR’ the future)? This is where Future Thinking and storytelling comes into play! I will explain you how this approach helped me working with startups and stay motivated in a VUCA context @smashingconf Antwerp. smashingconf.com/antwerp-2023

Something magic is going to happen very soon… ✨✨✨

@martingrasser @Scampiuk @toddwaterbury @angyche We said ‘goodbye’ to Twitter when it was sold it. The logo won’t make the brand. But yes, I am sorry that the #TwitterBird was so poorly replaced.

Today we say goodbye to this great blue bird This logo was designed in 2012 by a team of three. @toddwaterbury, @angyche and myself, The logo was designed to be simple, balanced, and legible at very small sizes, almost like a lowercase "e", a 🧵

Something new is coming pretty soon… ☺️

It's important to keep in mind that when we talk about Twitter's new logo and naming, we're only scratching the surface of what a #brand really is. When rebranding, there are typically a multitude strategic decisions and business opportunities that are considered. #TwitterLogo

@LeaVerou It reflects the tone of voice of his CEO. At least, we can’t blame him for inconsistency. 😅

Always good to start the day with blackmail. “Nice blue checkmark you have there, it would be a shame if something happened to it”

Are we going to lose our job? Mmh… probably not. But we need to change…
