""Designers do great work, but they don't know how to communicate it. I get all these screens in a Figma file, and I'm like, where's your annotations? You can't go to a VP and show them this stuff.""
""The era of self-explanatory visuals is over. A well-designed screen used to be enough to carry a product review. It doesn't anymore.""
""The fix is one of the smallest, most transferable skills you can build as a senior designer: a simple three-part frame for annotating your own work. Decision, hypothesis, outcome.""
Designers must enhance their communication skills by incorporating annotations into their work. The traditional reliance on self-explanatory visuals is no longer sufficient. A simple three-part framework for annotations—decision, hypothesis, and outcome—can significantly improve how design work is presented. This approach allows designers to articulate their thought processes and the rationale behind their designs, making it easier for stakeholders to understand and appreciate the work.
