Creating designer trading cards that describe each designer's superpower, hidden talents, home base, style, and preferences!
Trading cards are a fun way to represent yourself and your skills and interests within the constraint of a small 2x3” space. Take some time with your team to create trading cards that represent each member and have fun with visual design. Individuals will spend an initial bit of time building out their content and then “trade” cards with another teammate to design the card and see how others see you!
This exercise is inspired by the Figma Design Team, Lattice has run this a few times over the years and it's a great time every time.
5 min - Intro explainer of the exercise
10 min - Create your trading card content in your template
20 min - Swap cards with another teammate and design their card to your liking

Package design was the name of the game at last week's Hightouch design team ❄️ Cooldown led by Emily Porat. 🍟 Food, 🧴lotions, 💈hair, or 🥤beverages – we picked our categories and the results were a riot! Packages by Michael Chan & Nate Argosh too!

every friday, @latticedesign gets together for a weekly cooldown activity: something fun we can all do together as a team. 💖 today, we used avatar generators from http://picrew.me and http://meiker.io to create avatars for ourselves and each other! ✨

Today's Hightouch ❄️ Cooldown exercise was led by Joe DeMaria! The challenge was to create a poster using only emojis to remix a movie, travel destination, or work of art. Always impressed by the creativity of this team! Can you guess what some of these are? 👀 Posters by: Joe DeMaria, Nate Argosh, Michael Chan, Levi Campbell, Dylan Mahler, and myself.
