A writeup of a presentation I gave on how design tokens could benefit our workflow at Piggy. I had to dive into this topic first myself as it was new for me as well. The timing couldn’t be better as later that year Figma introduced variables, being their approach to Design tokens.

For my thesis, I investigated creative imagination, particularly in blind individuals, aiming to develop a measurement tool for comparing their creative imaginative abilities with sighted individuals. Where traditionally studies focused on visual perception, this research expands to include other sensory modalities to measure creative imagination. Personally, I learned a lot about how new ideas come to live and how different sensory modalities play a role in it.
