Mismatch (book by Kat Holmes)

Kat Holmes' book Mismatch: How Inclusion Shapes Design examines how empathy for excluded communities, alongside intuition and aesthetic judgment, shapes human-centered design practice.
It equally involves our emotional sensitivity: the capacity for empathy (a cornerstone of human-centered design, as championed by firms like IDEO and explored in depth by Kat Holmes in Mismatch: How Inclusion Shapes Design regarding excluded communities), intuition, aesthetic judgment, and the ability to understand and shape experiences that resonate on a deeper, affective level.
