      { 🇹🇼 } – Taipei, home of Phase

      After our last visit to London, we wanted to take a closer look at a place that is very close to the most on our team – Taipei. You may not know it, but this is where 9 of 11 of Phase team members are based, working hard on app’s design and engineering.

      Since we’d already covered Berlin, home of our community team, we wanted to see how Taipei’s Design Ecosystem looks and what you can expect from the city as a designer.

        Today, we continue to explore design communities around the world. This time in the Design Ecosystems series we are taking a look at London, one of the largest design hubs in Europe.

        It’s the capital of the UK, and also happens to be the major startup hub on the European continent. Many companies start their journey here to expand worldwide, which also means that there is a lot of work for the designers in the city.

        Let’s see what London has to offer!

            In Phase Magazine’s previous issue, we took you on a trip around our Berlin neighborhood. Meanwhile, the weather here got awful, so we thought it may be a good idea to cover someplace a little warmer this time.

            Designer’s Guide to Berlin

              { 🐻 } – #DesignEcosystem in Berlin

              Here’s something unique about Phase – we are quite a small team of 11 people based in two different, but equally amazing, cities. Phase design and engineering are based in Taipei, Taiwan while our community team including myself run a small team in Berlin.

              Taipei is a story for another day, but why Berlin?

              The real reason is the local design community. The city is just full of creatives, and is one of Europe’s biggest design hubs, and perhaps more importantly, is one of its most diverse.

              I fell in love with the city the first time I visited last year, and couldn’t resist moving here. I thought that joining Phase in Berlin would be an excellent opportunity for me to start my journey with design, and I couldn’t have been more right.

              I’ve been living in Berlin for almost two months now. Here’s what you should know about the city if you’re a designer moving here.
