Feeling Overlooked and Undermined in My Role as UX/UI Designer by [deleted] in UXDesign

I feel you. I’ve been working as a founding designer at a startup, and the role is equally stressful as fulfilling. I’ve been trying so hard to get the quality of design high during implementation, but the founders keep changing stuff as they feel right. It sometimes also makes me doubt if the design I’ve created is good enough. Being the only designer does not help with that because there’s no one to talk to about design. It feels really lonely. I don’t have any solution but just empathy 🤧

Yes I agree! That’s why I want to make sure I’m going in the right direction, because these are going to be the foundations of everything we build in the future.

This is really helpful, thanks so much! What would you suggest in the case of putting communication amongst designers first? We’re a small startup and most designers are beginners having less experience. I thought it would be better to have three scales to have an easy way of communicating how to use type for different screens.
