Design Critique Skills

Summary

Giving and receiving specific, constructive, principle-based feedback rather than vague reactions ('I don't love this') — a core collaborative skill practiced constantly in real design teams.

How to Learn This

1Practice the 'I noticed / I wonder / what if' feedback framing on a real design.
2Give feedback on a peer's work (or a public design) citing a specific principle or heuristic.
3Learn to separate must-fix feedback from personal taste explicitly when you give it.
