The Design for Experience awards program has a growing roster of judges who represent mastery in all aspects of user-centered research, design, and education.

Today, we’re honored to present our judges for the international Design for Experience awards.

We reached out to some of the best thinkers and doers in the realm of user-centered design, research, and education and are grateful to have a roster of judges who represent the many types of mastery that can be achieved in our diverse and growing field.

These are folks who understand what designing for experience is all about and we’re excited to join them in the process of selecting the best products, services, and teams that have something special to teach us.

Many of our judges will be familiar to you, both through their outstanding work in the field and, in many cases, their fantastic contributions to UX Magazine. Meet our judges here. You can also get a look at the 24 categories we’ve named for our inaugural award program and submit nominations.

Feel free to submit general nominations for individuals, organizations, or products that you feel demonstrate a thorough understanding of what UX is all about. If there’s a team, product, company, agency, or service that you feel deserves recognition, please nominate them right now!

We’ll continue sharing details about the program in the coming weeks, so sign up for email updates as well.

AI can create wireframes, synthesize research, and draft copy fast. What it can’t do: understand your users, carry context, or be accountable when something goes wrong. That’s still you.

IDEAS IN BRIEF
AI Is Your New Intern, Not Your Replacement
  • AI is not replacing UX pros; it’s automating repetitive tasks and augmenting human capabilities.
  • Think of AI as an intern: quick, smart, but dependent on human direction, context, and judgment.
  • Human skills like empathy, research, systems thinking, and ethical decision-making are more important than ever.
  • The future belongs to designers who incorporate AI to accelerate execution and devote more time to strategic, human-centered work.

IDEAS IN BRIEF
The Agile Trap Designers Fall into: Feeding the Beast
  • Agile teams are fast, but designers get stuck in an infinite loop of visual work: redesigning the same components over and over instead of solving real UX problems.
  • Design systems break that cycle, defining the building blocks once, freeing designers to focus on how the product works, not how it looks.
  • When the basics are in place, teams can start working together sooner, prototype faster, and release incremental features without the interface falling apart.

IDEAS IN BRIEF
Gamification 2.0. Beyond Points and Badges: Designing for Players, Not Metrics. Conclusion
  • Most apps use gamification as a manipulation layer to drive metrics, but people engage with things that are truly worthy of their time, not points or streak guilt.
  • Apps that people stick with do this by designing for intrinsic motivation, making the experience itself rewarding.
  • The true measure of success is whether users feel more capable, accomplished, and enriched for having used your app.
