Very please to have found this brilliant talk via the Plain English Weekly newsletter. It ties the themes of my last post about language into the design world, with the best explainer and set of examples for the discipline of content design that I’ve ever seen.
In particular, from around 14 to 22 minutes, Candi builds on how subtle word choice can evoke, hide, or highlight the enormously important meaning of the language we use.
Peoples identities are not “edge cases”. We can’t be truly human-centred without including all humans.
I love to this example showing GOV.UK without content.
Such a succinct way to illustrate the role of content design.
