Under Glass provides inspiration through a balanced and in-depth view of great digital product design happening worldwide and how those products connect with people.
@dereknguyen10@abadesi Thanks a lot Abadesi! One of that main reasons for starting was that we both live in South Korea and saw a lot of awesome product work happening here that didn't get highlighted much outside.
This also made us curious as to what else is going in other markets. We also felt a lot of product/UX round ups don't necessarily tell the full story of product and wanted to see what would happen if we dug a little deeper (as much as we can externally so still not the full story, but maybe close). We try to keep it objective and positive but will sometimes offer opinions too.
Rather than curate, the content is written by both Derek and I and basically just involves a bit of research and asking questions. We have a set list we ask about each product before writing that help us break it down, happy to share that with anyone if they're interested.
@graeme_fulton Thanks Graeme. No hard and fast rules but we have some guidelines: basically we favour products with strong design that haven't been talked about much or are from regions that get talked about less that are changing something in an interesting way.
A lot of times we deliberated too much on what products to talk about and ended up finding out that (almost) every product has an interesting story to tell once you dive into it.
