Do you think designers today need to be multitasking, multidisciplinary or specialized in an area?
"Learn expertise in your craft. Design is naturally hybrid and permeable to other disciplines and that is our strength. You need to embrace cross-discipline but there is a lot of value in the craft of design.
The process alone is not enough; you can learn the process in two days but then you can spend the next 6 years learning how to do individual tasks in the process that requires a serious investment in time, and skills and expertise to really be effective at then running the process in the way it is depicted. Process itself is easy to communicate but the vertical skills required for every single step along the way to execute on that process efficiently.
Wouldn't discard craft and main knowledge of expertise but the designer of the future will be a generalist in the way that they look at the world." ~Fabio Sergio, Vice President of Design at Frog
