2002 年在多伦多与 Jon Lax 联合创办 Teehan+Lax,做了十三年,把它带成那个年代最受尊敬的独立数字工作室之一——靠的不只是客户项目,还有它公开发布的东西:Sizing Chart、免费的 iOS UI 套件、坦率到少见的项目复盘。2015 年工作室关门,几位合伙人一起进了 Facebook,他先负责信息流的设计,之后主管 Meta 金融科技与支付线的设计,直到 2022 年离开,出任 Lightspark 首席设计官。他的观点是:设计师熬过平台更替,靠的是把每一次更替当成新媒介而不是新工具链;那款一度刷屏的配色游戏 Dialed 就是他为验证这句话做的业余项目。
Co-founded Teehan+Lax in Toronto in 2002 with Jon Lax and ran it for thirteen years into one of the most respected independent digital studios of its era — as much for what it published (the Sizing Chart, the free iOS UI kits, the studio's candid case studies) as for client work. When the studio closed in 2015 the partners joined Facebook, where Teehan led design for News Feed and then ran design for Meta's fintech and payments work until 2022, when he left to become Chief Design Officer at Lightspark. Argues designers survive platform shifts by treating each one as a new medium rather than a new toolchain; his viral color-matching game Dialed was a side project built to test that.
