MALAKAI LOUDERMILK
I believe holistic design requires both an interdisciplinary skillset and worldview.
I fuel my creativity via outside skills and interests. Diversity in lifestyle breeds innovation.
My Other Work
Dribbble
Some more artistic takes on my visual designs, but with plenty of UX thinking involved! Features designs not on this portfolio site.
Substack
Writing is an important skill, and it is critical that I maintain it. Here I think, write, and explore new ideas beyond design.
Flickr
Photography is one of my favorite interdisciplinary skills, and a great pastime! I work with older, manual lenses, so the involved nature is still present.

Philosophy
Embrace Big Design
Design with empathy for users, while maintaining brand goals. Build asset libraries, style guides, and flow documentation to ensure overall experiential cohesion and painless transfers to development teams.
The Eternal Student
Design trends, technologies, techniques and best practices grow and evolve over time. So should we. In order to maintain an innovative approach, embracing a philosophy of continual learning and experimentation is key.
Design For Good
While pursuing functionality and aestheticism, we cannot forget our responsibilities as designers. To consider the impact of our choices and avoid exclusionary decisions will foster positive design practices.
