We’re diving into "The Design of Everyday Things" by Don Norman. If you haven't heard about it before, it is about how stuff around us is designed with users in mind. 🚪🔑
No strict rules here – just hop in and share whatever this book makes you think or feel. Got months to finish, so no rush (I’m a slow reader too, so you're in good company!). Haven’t read it myself yet, but I’ve heard tons about it and can’t wait to share my thoughts as I go along.

Share pics, stories, or anything you get from the book as we explore the world of design together.
