How we redesigned the Linear UI (part Ⅱ) - Linear
We have redefined the foundational layers of Linear’s application with a full redesign. This is the second post in a two-part series where we dive into why and how we redesigned the application. In part one, we shared why redesigns are important. In part two, we introduce you to the new UI and cover how we tackled the project — no infinite-loop processes, workshops, or sticky notes were involved.

Physicality: the new age of UI
There’s a lot of rumors of a big impending UI redesign from Apple. Let’s imagine what’s (or what could be) next for the design of iPhones, Macs and iPads.


Building Games That Can Be Understood at a Glance
Screen As Room: An Architectural Perspective on User Interfaces — Christoph Locher · Interaction Designer
With the use of video games as social spaces being observed for several years and the increased focus put on virtual social spaces due to the scarceness of physical social spaces in the last months, the concept of “spatial interfaces” is once again at the center of discussions. I want to add an alternative perspective to this, looking at the properties of physical spaces as metaphors, rather than models, for interfaces and exploring seven of them in more detail.

A great talk from @jenson.org on why and how to move the desktop paradigm forward. I especially loved the prototypes/concepts; even if not perfectly refined it’s still nice to see someone put some stakes in the ground. (And FWIW I think they were all pretty solid!)

Thoroughly enjoyed speaking at #UbuntuSummit today. Thank you organizers! I spoke about the need for new foundational #UX improvements to the Desktop UX. Very lively audience! youtube.com/live/WvNgMEumSoA?t=17225s
i couldn’t be more excited Inlay is finally out and open source! i’ve been working on this nonstop for the past few months. it’s a bit in the “mad science” territory but i hope it inspires you too to think about malleable and remixable social user interfaces
