Untitled Designers (@untitleddesigners_)

You've spent years learning. Building. Failing. Growing. Now, it's time to share what you've learned. UDC 2026 is looking for designers, developers, founders, researchers, product leaders, and creative professionals with ideas that can challenge perspectives, spark conversations, and inspire the next generation. You don't need to have all the answers. You just need a story worth telling. If you've built something, solved a difficult problem, learned lessons the hard way, or discovered a new way of thinking, your experience could be exactly what someone else needs to hear. Apply today and help shape Africa's biggest design conversation. 🔗 Apply here: https://untitleddesigners.com (link in bio) "Your experience becomes more valuable the moment you share it." #UDC2026 #HumanByDesign #CallForSpeakers #DesignCommunity #AfricanDesign

As creators, we've spent the last few years trying to keep up. New AI tools, technologies, and trends. Somewhere along the way, many of us started asking a difficult question: "Will what I create still matter?" At UDC, we believe the answer is yes. Because behind every product is a person. Behind every great idea is a story.Behind every innovation is someone shaped by culture, community, and lived experience. That's why the theme for UDC 2026 is: HUMAN BY DESIGN Where Culture, Code & Creativity Meet. But this isn't just a theme. It's a direction. Last year, UDC brought together 3K+ Attendees, 30+ Speakers, 40 Sessions, and a community of designers, developers, founders, and creatives from across Africa. New friendships were formed. Careers were changed. Ideas became collaborations. That's the kind of impact we want to build on. This year, we're going even bigger. We're creating a space where technology meets empathy, where African perspectives shape global conversations and where the people behind the work take centre stage. This October, we're bringing together the people building that future. Designers. Developers. Founders. Product thinkers. Creative leaders. If you've been looking for the room where the next big conversations will happen... This is it. 🎟️ Early Bird Tickets are now live. Join us. Let's build products that don't just work. Let's build experiences that matter. "The future isn't built by technology alone. It's built by people." #udc2026ishere #udc2026 #HumanByDesign

The future of design isn't just about the next tool. It's about the next generation of people bold enough to shape what those tools become. For five years, UDC has brought together thousands of designers, developers, founders and creative thinkers who believe that great products don't start with technology. They start with people. This year, we're taking that conversation even further. Human by Design: Where Culture, Code & Creativity Meet is more than our theme. It's a call to every creator who believes that empathy still matters, that culture is a competitive advantage, and that African perspectives deserve a place at the centre of global innovation. This October, we're gathering the people building what's next. The conversations will be bigger. The ideas will be bolder. The community will be stronger. 🎟️ Early Bird Tickets are now live. https://untitleddesigners.com If you're building the future, there's a seat for you. We'll see you in Lagos.

Episode 4 of Wine & Design by UDC is out, and Kanayo Uzo is asking some uncomfortable questions about design, money, ego, and the industry. We talk about what design really means, how much designers earn, the misconceptions around graphic design, and whether the people we look up to are always as good as we think they are. It’s a conversation about knowing your worth, questioning what you’ve been taught, and taking a closer look at the industry we’re building careers in. Watch Episode 4 of Wine & Design by UDC now. 🍷 And if you’re coming to UDC 2026, there’s plenty more where that came from. 🎟️ Get your UDC 2026 ticket.

“Graphic designers do not have weight…” But do they? In Episode 4 of Wine & Design by UDC, Kanayo Uzo gets into this misconception and something designers might not always want to hear: sometimes, the way people see our craft starts with the way we see it ourselves. When you understand the value of your work, you show up differently. And people start to see that value too. So, what does it really mean for designers to have weight in the room? 👀 🍷 Wine & Design by UDC | Episode 4 Premieres September 11 | 12 noon on YouTube Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss it: https://www.youtube.com/@untitleddesigners 🎟️ And while you’re here, get your UDC 2026 ticket at 50% off, courtesy of our amazing sponsor, Quidax untitleddesigners.com Use code UDCSLASH26 to claim yours! #WineAndDesignByUDC #WineAndDesign #UDC2026 #HumanByDesign #UntitledDesigners

So, what makes a brand worth remembering? Join Ufot Ubon, Designer & Storyteller at Obio Square, for the next Designers Lounge Series as he unpacks the thinking behind creating brands that people understand, connect with, and remember. From storytelling and design systems to the role of culture in shaping experiences, this is a conversation about making brands mean something beyond the visuals. 📍 UDC Designers Lounge Series 🗓 September 11th ⏰ 7:00 PM WAT 📍 Live on X Spaces https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1pKkOXqEmwrKj Come with questions. Leave with a few things to think about.

We’re excited to announce Taiwo Folu as one of our speakers for UDC 2026. ✨ Taiwo is the Co-Founder and Creative Director of Eaxum, an animation studio he has spent nearly eight years building at the intersection of art, technology and storytelling. His work spans the full 3D pipeline, with computer animation projects for global brands including Adidas, New Balance and Everton FC. At Eaxum, he leads a team of animators, artists and technical minds creating work that meets international standards while staying rooted in authentic storytelling. But there’s another side to what Taiwo is building. He is also developing Clustta, an open-source version control and asset management platform created at Eaxum to tackle some of the very real pipeline and collaboration challenges creative studios face. It’s a pretty interesting combination: building the tools, understanding the technology and still being deeply involved in the creative work itself. At UDC 2026, Taiwo brings a perspective that sits right at the intersection of creativity, technology and the future of how we make things. We can’t wait to have him in the room. And if you’ve been waiting for a sign to get your ticket, this might be it. 👀 🎟️ Get 50% off your UDC 2026 ticket with code UDCSLASH26.

And then there are people who notice, understand, question, and somehow make everyone around them see things differently too. That’s Elias Nnamdi Awili. His journey through design has been anything but one-dimensional, and that curiosity shows in the way he approaches his work, shares what he knows, and makes even the complicated parts feel a little easier to understand. There’s something special about people who don’t just keep getting better at what they do, but also make room for other people to get better too. That’s Elias for us. The Observant Genius. ⭐️ Our Face of Design | Elias Nnamdi Awili Just confirmed: #UDC2026 is going to be one of the biggest events in October. So don’t just hear about it. Be in the room.

𝑊𝑖𝑛𝑒 & 𝐷𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑔𝑛 𝐸𝑝. 2 | 𝑂𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑎 𝐴𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑜𝑙𝑎 Truths, trends, and humans creating this design. ✨ Before the brand designer, there was a Geology student taking pictures on a Tecno Pop 3. 📸 Before the creative leader, there was a choir member who joined his church's design team. 🎨 And somewhere along the way, design became more than something he did. It became the path he chose. In Episode 2 of Wine & Design, we talk about finding your way into design, evolving as a creative, and figuring out what comes next.” Watch the full conversation on Friday at 3:00PM on the Untitled Designers YouTube channel.

“You can’t expect people to bet on you if you don’t bet on yourself… so believe in yourself” Wise words from our guest Linda Ojo. Most designers expect people to take a chance on them just because. But would you take a chance on you? You need to internalize success before it can be possible. This is another powerful snippet from our first episode on Wine & Design. #udc2026 #humanbydesign #WineandDesign

What separates a good designer from an exceptional one? Most people think it's experience. More years. More projects. More time. Linda Ojo disagrees. She reminds us that time isn't the right metric for judging someone's success. Every designer carries the seed of becoming exceptional. What matters is whether you choose to nurture it. This is another powerful moment from our first episode of Wine & Design. 🎥 Full episode now live on YouTube. And if you're looking for a room that challenges your thinking and helps you grow that seed, we'll see you at UDC 2026. 🎟 Early Bird tickets are available now. 🔗 Link in bio. #UDC2026 #HumanByDesign #WineAndDesign #DesignCommunity #CareerGrowth
