  • Building T-shaped people; learning approachable, pragmatic design.

  • Why does the Orange Hive community exist?

    That through design and collaboration, we can develop ourselves into interdisciplinary, creatively confident, "T-shaped people" -- people who specialize in a specific field of design, biz or tech, but are able to collaborate across disciplines and are curious to about learning new things.
     
    We believe design is about intent -- how things look, feel, function, and mean.
     
    We care about ...

    UI/UX

    How people notice, interact with, and "stick" to your business.

    message

    How people discover, understand, and remember you.

    Graphics

    How people feel about your brand, legitimacy and personality.

  • What's next? (Sept 6 - Nov 8)

    Learn design thinking through practice! Orange Hive is organising gatherings and mentorship to support IDEO+Acumen's (free) 7-week online certificate course.
