I just realised that all design markets behave in the same way: with maturity they shrink and most designers on that market _must_ adapt to survive.<p>E.g. on a mature architectural design market, the need for design projects of small scale buildings almost vanishes. It&#x27;s common that the design project is offered by developers trying to get the building contract. Only on large scale buildings still persiat the need for specialist design. In web design the same trends seem to apply:<p>designers -&gt; builders<p>generalists -&gt; specialists
