Inspiration is what drives us. Everybody on Team Altair has been touched by the content creation industry in one way or another, whether it's as a creator, a moderator, or a viewer. We're inspired to create something better than what currently exists. The following are a collection of words that do a better job explaining how we feel than we could ever do.
“Most tech companies present themselves with hubris, as genius saviors who are making the world a better place. Stripe, by contrast, acknowledges their imperfections—and the vulnerability they show in this moment offers a natural point of emotional engagement that other tech companies competing for the same talent miss out on.”
“Let’s think of our designs, not as a facade for interaction, but as people with whom our audience can have an inspired conversation. We’ll create that feeling of excitement and bond with our audience by designing a personality that our interface will embody.”
“Designers will always be pushed by clients and managers to drive business results. But when those requests cross an ethical line or harm users, it’s our duty to dissent.”
“We’re not just designing screens. We’re designing human experiences. Like the visionaries of the Arts and Crafts movement, we know that preserving the human touch and showing ourselves in our work isn’t optional: it’s essential.”
