DESCRIPTION
Presentation of Vibhas Jain, Product Designer- PayTM. He discusses about Grids and their importance. Vibhas talks about the design process they follow at Paytm and what has he learned till now doing various designs. The flow he recommends all designers to take is Sketch → Atomic Designs → Grids. While all elements are important to the process, the right implementation of grids is what brings the design together. He also emphasized on baseline text and hierarchy of page. Size, color, text and spacing are the most important aspects where you can focus and drive a user to do certain things you want them to do.TRANSCRIPT
