When designers treat tools as bridges for real connection, rather than just solving for the average, the results change lives, and that’s now being echoed in major design frameworks worldwide.
This book completely shifted how I view design in the world around me. I used to be really into bouldering, and after reading it, I started wondering, are rock climbing gyms inclusive for climbers with color blindness? Can they tell red and blue holds apart? What happens if the route setters place them too close together, does it make the route harder to read? It inspired me to bring this up with the route-setting team, and it sparked a fun conversation.
Also so incredible that the Chinese edition for Mismatch was translated through a community of writers on WeChat!
