About Designer News
Designer News is the daily update of top news for ambitious designers looking to stay ahead of the game. Every day we publish the links that matter: tool releases, AI shifts that change how products get built, sharp writing on craft, and videos worth your time. Each one is hand picked and summarised in a couple of sentences, so you can decide fast and go deep only where it counts.
Behind the scenes, a scout reads hundreds of sources every morning: product changelogs, design blogs, YouTube channels and the wider tech press. A human makes the final call on what earns a slot. Members vote and discuss, so the best links rise.
Relaunched by Mizko
Designer News was the design community's front page for years. In 2026 it was acquired and relaunched by Michael Wong, better known as Mizko.
Mizko has spent more than a decade helping designers level up: first as a designer and agency founder, then through his YouTube channel, where hundreds of thousands of designers learn UX, UI and product craft from direct, practical videos with none of the fluff. He is the founder of The Designership community and builds Choppity, a platform of AI apps.
The relaunch brings that same mission here: help ambitious designers stay ahead of an industry that is moving faster than ever.
