Designing a Remote Design Offsite
summary
Webflow runs its first-ever design retreat entirely remote, with designers spread across 11 cities in 4 countries and a company that is 70% remote. Planning focuses on outcomes: deepen social bonds, not copy in-person rituals. Tools used are Zoom (breakouts), Discord for a distinct event space, and Figma as a collaborative canvas — the team builds a “team tapestry” in Figma and runs Pecha Kucha show-and-tells; those artifacts and formats meaningfully work and scale despite Zoom fatigue.
