This month we're challenging you to work on your design skills - emoji design skills that is!
Not only can emoji be used in UX and UI design, but in our diverse, global world emoji can help improve usability by expressing more than text ever could! Of course it's all about context, and emoji shouldn't be used to replace text, but when used thoughtfully emoji can add zest! Emotion! Playfulness!
So what are you waiting for? Open Figma and start designing. Get creative and make them your own. Let your interpretation, style, and aesthetic bring them to life!
And don't forget to jump into our Slack Tribe - by the end of this month you'll have your very own, personalized mini set of emoji to share with the community!
Designing emoji is much like designing anything else. You are encouraged to preserve industry standards for shape, maintain a square aspect ratio, and to work with accessibility and inclusivity in mind, considering age, gender, race, ethnicity, etc.
