Website of the week:

Discovery vs Delivery
I want to weigh in on how AI can be used effectively within the design process. My bias here is that I’m on the tools — I’m spending my days migrating design systems for LLM legibility, learning new AI tools while also pushing project work, and thrashing around like a junior designer again moving a chunk of my process to prototyping first in code.

The old typography is new again
Back in the days of metal and wood type, when setting text involved working with actual physical pieces of type, changing font size meant reaching into a different drawer. And the type in each of those drawers wasn’t a scaled version of its neighbour, but a unique design, created for that particular size.

Context-aware headings in HTML
A common issue that we've probably all faced at some point is having a component that includes a heading, which sometimes should be an H2 and sometimes maybe an H3, depending on where it's used.
