The design of a product isn’t really about aesthetics, it’s about the experience created from the product (as Om put it in this post this week). That’s one of the underlying themes of our annual Roadmap conference, to be held on Nov. 5th and 6th (yes, two weeks away!).
And it’s also the reason why we asked five of our favorite design-focused folks to weigh in on the five product designs that represent the very best in experience design. Here are their top picks, and they’ll be discussing these more at Roadmap in a final session to sum up the 2-days.
Shoshana Berger, Editorial Director, IDEO
Josh Brewer, former Principal Designer, Twitter
Ryan Freitas, Cofounder, About.me
Julie Horvath, Designer, GitHub
Braden Kowitz, Design Partner, Google Ventures
