Patterns Day 2: June 28th, 2019
Surprise! Patterns Day is back!
The first Patterns Day was in the Summer of 2017, and it was a glorious — a single day devoted to all things design system-y: pattern libraries, style guides, maintainability, reusability. It was a lot of fun, so let’s do it again!
Patterns Day 2 will take place on Friday, June 28th, in the beautiful Duke of York’s cinema in Brighton. If you went to the first Patterns Day, then you’ll know how luxuriously comfy it is in there.
Tickets are £175+VAT. The format will likely be the same as before: an action-packed day of eight talks, each 30 minutes long.
I’ve got an amazing line-up of speakers, but instead of telling you the whole line-up straightaway, I’m going to tease a little bit, and announce more speakers over the next few weeks and months. For now, here are the first three speakers, to give you an idea of the quality you can expect:
- All the way from the US of A, it’s Una Kravets, who needs no introduction.
- From the Government Digital Service, we’ve got Amy Hupe — she’ll have plenty to share about the GOV.UK design system.
- And we’ve got Yaili, now a senior designer at Microsoft, where she works on the Azure DevOps design system.
Patterns Day will have something for everyone. We’ll be covering design, development, content strategy, product management, and accessibility. So you might want to make this a one-day outing for your whole team.
If you want to get a feel for what the day will be like, you can watch the videos of last year’s talks
Tickets for last year’s Patterns Day went fairly fast — the Duke of York’s doesn’t have a huge capacity — so don’t dilly-dally too long before grabbing your ticket!
