UX Studio designers share where they get inspiration from


A self-taught designer raised on the internet, I’m either traveling, drinking coffee, or taking mediocre photos when I’m not pushing pixels. I rank my top inspiration places as Dribbble, Awwwards, Muzli, Instagram, and actual apps that I use on my phone.

Dribbble – The challenge comes in that most of the designs don’t represent reality there. But that also makes for a good thing. Many of them look pretty bold, and you can think of how you could apply them to a real project.

 

Instagram – I follow some designers and sometimes things appeal to me. In Instagram, I really like the more personal connection than just finding something random on Dribbble. In many cases, I can see the style of the designer I’m following. So, at least I can find something useful on Instagram
