I’d recommend instead of a “redesign” (in different work to fill your case studies) to instead think about features a product or website is lacking in. It gives a younger designer a starting point in terms of using an exiting design system and tone of content. If it’s a pain point they experience themselves, it’ll probably ground them more in terms of solving a problem and writing a proper case study.

I’m not a personal fan of redesigns because people often throw restrictions out the door and don’t consider all the various users the company actually has to consider.

Thanks for writing this article, but I wanted to chime in about that one section 😅
