Web and Digital
The screen
Design Disciplines · EXPLORE
Web design brought the page to life: layouts that reflow, buttons that respond, content that updates. It demands fluency in both visual design and the logic of the medium — hierarchy, usability, performance, and accessibility.
Unlike print, a digital design is never finished. It ships, gets measured, and changes. Designing for the screen means designing a system, not a snapshot.
