A question for you

substack.antonsten.com

Hello!

First, a disclaimer: You may notice I’m back on Substack. I’ve been using the Substack app more and more recently, and I’m becoming more and more impressed with the quality and focus of their tools. When I moved my list back into Substack, there may have been some overlap, so my apologies to anyone who recently unsubscribed and still gets this email. For your convenience, I wanted to include a big Unsubscribe button here, but Substack won’t let me. But if you don’t want to hear from me ever again, just scroll to the bottom of this email and hit unsubscribe.

Still here? Nice! I love you too.

One of the most common questions I’ve been getting lately is this: “What is the difference between UX design and Product design?”. It’s a great question that I found surprisingly difficult to answer. So I thought I would try something new! I’ve decided to try and answer the question with a client of mine who has a TON of experience in product design, Matthew Woo. Matthew is the co-founder and Head of Product at Summer Health. Before founding Summer Health, he was a Product Manager at Meta and WhatsApp.

So besides asking Matthew what the difference between UX design and Product design is - what else are you interested in finding out? Just reply with your question, and I’ll try to include as many of them as possible.

Ok looking forward to trying this new format!

Anton

Love you writing and work Anton! Thank you for taking the time to share it. My question is how do you see the Product Designer’s toolkit evolving in the next 10 years or so? Do you think 3D design will become more and more prioritized in digital contexts with the advances in VR and AR technologies? Very curious about your thoughts..
