Our crazy-fun new visual search tool Sometimes you spot something you really love on Pinterest, but you don’t know how to find it in real life, or what it’s even called. There’s that perfect lamp hiding in a Pin of someone’s living room, or maybe a random street style shot with the exact shoes you’re looking for. Well, now we’ve got a new tool that lets you find all those things you don't have the words to describe. When you spot something in a Pin that you want to learn more about, tap the search tool in the corner.

Starting tomorrow, you’ll find the new search tool on your phone and the web. —Kevin Jing, Engineering Manager, currently Pinning to teapot.

Curtis: The Designer's Rise Into the Upper Echelons of Business Traditionally, the role of the designer has been to make a concept work. The designer was the creative 'brains' behind a successful product, but existed outside of the realm of the C-Suite. Yet this is starting to change. Today, designers are no longer an auxiliary of the boardroom, but are coming up with the ideas and putting them into action from within the highest ranks of a company.
