Grid Publication
Be More than just a Designer.
GRID Magazine started out of a need to share the knowledge from our internal courses with the wider design group. Today, we have reached over 200 articles and close to 2k subscribed readers. The ambition is to bring you the success stories about scaling the design proposition to your doorstep.

Our
Ambition
For centuries, creatives and many disciplines have used a piece of paper and a pencil to visualise ideas – a good enough state that can represent an ambition.
Manifesto
DaS™
Manifeto
To connect, empower, and unify all product designers under a simple Manifesto that easily translates the value of design in the current complex environment.
Matrix
Evaluation Matrix
We explore how to evaluate a team, department, or business to determine its readiness for a design transformation at scale within a organisation.
Designer
Everyone is Designer
We explore the shift of the paradigm where everyone is a designer in large organisations, and how you can navigate through it without losing your soul.
Communication.
The communication has become the the key to differentiator in business.
According to Forester Research, 62% of internal coms are ineffective.
Effective unilateral communication between different business functions has a direct impact on speed, quality, time to market, and, most importantly, the reduction of risk. Now more than ever, the key factor of a sustainable business is communication standards.
Communication overload is one of the most significant impacts on the design team.
A straightforward naming convention or engagement strategy can reduce ineffective coms by 43% – a half day of your productive time.

We share our 20 years of experience in creating, managing and scaling products and services that allow individuals to shape organisations through design.
Technology.
Language models and automation is everywhere.
What is your company's AI strategy, and how does it reflect the creative outputs?
Today's organisation is standing at a pivotal point between adoption and full integration of automated services. The fundamental question here is to understand where these informations are stored and who is using it for what purpose. Design is now in the unique position to help engineers translate the brand IP into a behaviour that defines the company's function.
Technology always plays a vital role in human lives.
Now more than ever, technology saves us almost 70% of production time when we empower our teams with automation, algorithms, and proper integration of technology into the design process.

Operation.
Connecting the dots between diferent function has always been a little challenge.
Is your design team prepared for immediate handover in code to your engineering team?
We are no longer sizing features for research, creation, design and delivery. Our design foundations enable modern design teams to release a fully tokenised proposition to a dedicated repository, where our engineering colleagues combine it with business functionality. All fully documented, tested and integrated within a fraction of time.
A fully integrated repository that embeds brand themes into the source code enables the team to operate without barriers and informs all parties of changing parameters and their impact on the proposition.

Method.
The DaS™ Method combines well-established processes into one ecosystem.
The advantage is in a precise adoption allowing all parties to get necessary information about the proposition.
We combined methods and practices to ensure that the code's velocity, transparency, cost efficiency, creativity, and quality meet customer satisfaction and achieve the desired impact. More importantly, the method must be robust enough to scale from sole trader to corporation.
The core value of the Method is empowering transparency for all contributors. With a daily average of 200 shared prompts, business learning reached a new point of accelerated learning.
