Hi, IxDF Cape Town!
Discover how understanding human behaviour can transform the way you design.
In this practical session, we’ll explore why behaviour matters, how push and pull factors influence user decisions, and introduce a simple framework for designing with the brain in mind.
Through real-world examples across different design disciplines, you’ll gain actionable insights to make your work more intuitive, engaging, and effective.

Hi all so excited for this meetup
Hi! Just confirming the time of this meetup, because it is not at the times I’m used to seeing for meetups! :) Is it happening at 6:30 am Johannesburg time? (As an aside: this works very well for me!)
Hi Carien! Apologies for the typo. Yes, unfortunately it will be 18:30-19:30. Will that work for you? I will be recording the meetup and sharing with the group as well.
Thank you for the reply. I won’t be able to attend the evening, unfortunately…it’s my son’s 7th birthday that day! I’ll keep an eye out for future meetups.
Thank you Werner for a wonderful talk, very insightful and was lovely to see everyone. Looking forward to our next meetup

An IxDF Local Group is a meeting point for people with a passion for design in your city.
You don't need to be a designer, just passionate about great design and how it can improve your work and career.
Meetups are the heartbeat of IxDF Local Groups, whether we meet at a café, a creative space or a local company. There's nothing quite like the magic of meeting face-to-face to share ideas and inspiration.
We also host regular IxDF Design Dinners, where we enjoy great food and help each other learn and grow. Even a simple coffee meetup in a café can ignite collaborations and friendships that last a lifetime.
You'll also have a private and exclusive online forum where you can openly get help and career advice.
Simply put, we learn together and smile together.
You'll expand your career network, discover new skills, explore job opportunities, meet potential clients, or even find your next dedicated team member when you join an xDF Local Group.
