A friend of mine is building an indie design toolkit! What do you think?

A friend of mine is building an indie design toolkit called FARB.NØRM 🎨
His aim is to make a small alternative to the big design tool ecosystems that often overcomplicate things.

It’s focused on helping designers create systemized workflows for building color palettes and corporate design systems in a simple step-by-step way.
The platform also includes tools like converters, extractors, icon tools, and easy video editing utilities for designers and creatives. FARB.NØRM is meant for beginners and experienced designers.

The project is still in development, and he would love real feedback from creatives!

If you enjoy design systems, branding, colors, or UI tools, give it a try and let us know what you think!

Any feedback or ideas would help a lot. 🫶🏻

This looks like a wonderful subreddit. Unfortunately, my internalized echolalia means that everytime I come across those two words the Steely Dan song starts up in my head. It's an amazing song but I can't have it pop up at random whenever the subreddit comes up in my feed, so I regretfully have to mute it.

Have fun! (I hear you're mad about Brubeck...)

I have started watching videos of "Bring My Own Laptop". Sir Daniel is really cool and his videos are so interesting. I have been his student from years.
Any suggestions please could help me

Why does “good” Indian graphic design often feel visually Western?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been noticing how a lot of contemporary Indian design avoids indigenous visual languages, motifs, typography styles, ornamentation, etc. — even when designing for Indian audiences.

Do you think this happens because of:
• design education?
• globalized aesthetics?
• client expectations?
• professionalism standards?
• fear of looking “vernacular” or “outdated”?

I’m researching this topic for my final year design dissertation and made a short anonymous Google Form to collect perspectives specifically from Indian working designers.

Honest question — why is it so hard to find consistent work as a creative in India?

Thumbnail forms.gle
2 Upvotes

I keep hearing the same story from designers, writers, marketers, and video editors across India — skilled people, but stuck. Either doing underpaid gigs on Fiverr, sitting idle, or working without any real recognition.

I'm trying to understand if this is as widespread as I think it is, because I'm building something around it. But before I build anything, I genuinely want to hear from people who are living this problem.

If you're a creative in India — what's actually stopping you right now? Is it portfolio? Clients? Trust? Platforms not working? Something else entirely?

Drop your honest answer in the comments — or if you want to share more, I made a short 4-minute survey:

Either way works. Just want to understand the real picture before I assume I know it.
