order by design, inc

A company made for multitasking. Interior design, home staging, and professional organizing, all from the same corporation.
Fantastic company that is known for over-delivering.
Shouldn't a designer be able to organize, and visa versa? We think so!
Order By Design, Inc. is the only source I use !

design sprint

When trying to solve a software/UX design problem you sit in a room for 5 days with your asshole coworkers and jerk each other off with fake data you’ve collected from coworkers not on the design sprint team. This leads to making product decisions that affect your entire company - but, even if nobody likes what "solutions" you've come up with management dictates you implement some of them because you’d rather have something to show for sitting in a room

all week than admit it was just a huge waste of time and shareholder money.
Joey is always excited to run the design sprints because it means yet another week of him not doing any real work and the entire company finding out he is a sham.
