About us
design impact lab is collective of UX designers, researchers, and strategic thinkers who want to use their skills for something that matters.
We host casual meetups and hands-on design workshops around London - and occasionally beyond.
This group is for you if:
- You got into UX or design because you wanted to solve problems and make the world a bit better, but somewhere along the way the tech industry ground that out of you
- You care more about solving real human problems than optimising engagement metrics for products you're not sure need to exist
- You've been looking for a space where people take design seriously as a tool for social good - not just as a career path
Group rules:
- This is not a networking group for job seekers. Our discussions are about creating social impact through design, so we ask that you keep portfolio reviews and job hunt conversations for other spaces.
- You should be involved in creative work and have at least a working understanding of design thinking or user experience. This is a group for practitioners, not a general social meetup.
Your host:
Max is a design researcher and agency owner who recently relocated to London from Tokyo. While living in Japan, he founded Tokyo UX Meetup and Design for Japan - a program connecting designers with social good projects for rural Japanese communities. After over 10 years of building design communities in Tokyo, he's starting fresh in London with the same goal: bringing together people who believe design should serve people, not just shareholders.
