# Recent
Recent (recent.design) is a **daily curated feed of exceptional recent design
work** — free to browse, no login wall (an account exists for sign-up but the
feed and item pages render logged out). It curates far more than landing
pages: verified category chips are **All, Web, Interface, Branding, Product,
Typography, Motion, Illustration, 3D, Editorial, Print, Packaging** — motion
studies, brand systems, shaders, product UI, posters, packaging all appear.
Roughly 4,000 members as of mid-2026; the feed skews toward what working
designers are excited about *this week*, which is exactly its value and its
danger.
Use `https://recent.design` — **`www.recent.design` does not resolve.**
The skill owns two things:
1. **Selection** — how to browse the feed and read its unusually rich item
metadata.
2. **Translation** — trend triage: separating durable freshness from fad, and
turning the keepers into implementation decisions.
## Selection
- Feed: `https://recent.design` — category chips filter client-side (JS), so
a human clicks them in the browser; a programmatic fetch gets the full
mixed feed, which is fine for a survey.
- Item pages: `https://recent.design/i/<id>-<slug>` — server-rendered and
fetchable. Each carries **structured metadata worth reading**: description,
author + link, source link (often an X post), Category, plus tag axes for
**Style** (e.g. Typographic, Editorial), **Color** (e.g. Dark, Vibrant),
and **Interaction** (e.g. Transitions),
