Dylan Field wrote about moving Figma towards a hybrid model, where both in-person office hubs and remote work is possible. I found this part from their internal survey especially interesting: “…almost half of employees currently based in San Francisco said they would consider moving to another city within commute distance if we offered multiple WFH days per week. Nearly two thirds of employees said they would consider moving to a non-hub location before the end of 2022 if all roles had the option to be remote.”

We invited a small handful of people we knew would be thoughtful on the topic to chat with Dylan over Zoom: Laura Deming, John Maeda, Marc Andreessen, Jeff Weiner, Karlie Kloss, and May-Li Khoe.”

Dylan Field talks about the early days of Figma, fundraising during COVID, and his experience as a first-time CEO on podcast Station F.

“Twice a year, we set aside a week for everyone at the company to explore a project outside of their daily responsibilities. Unlike hackathons — which are largely built for engineering and design — Maker Week is for everyone, across teams and skillsets.”

Next, Dylan pitches his company to Daniel Gross as if back in 2013. Ten minutes of mind-bending WebGL and JS demos.

Dylan Field shares how he and Evan Wallace came up with the idea for Figma. In the first part, he shares his original pitch in the Thiel Fellowship application from 2011.
