PDX Design Pulse: Photo Walk — A UX Lens

What happens when you slow down and really notice the world around you?
Join us for a relaxed outdoor photo walk where we explore color, attention, and everyday design together.

This isn’t about taking perfect photos or having a polished portfolio. It’s about seeing differently.

## We’ll start with a short intro, then break into small groups and head out for a light photo walk around the park.

Each group will be assigned a color and invited to notice:

• where it shows up in unexpected ways
• patterns, textures, and small details
• moments of good (or not-so-good) design

We’ll come back together for a casual picnic-style hangout, share a few observations, and continue conversations.

## Why Join

• Meet designers and folks in tech in a low-pressure, outdoor setting
• Practice observing the world through a UX lens (beyond screens)
• Take a break from routine and get some fresh air
• Walk away with new perspectives and a few great photos 📸
