I don't think it's considered rude, since "Human Resources" is a widely accepted term.

Human resources is just a depersonalizing term for personnel. Design resources is just a depersonalizing term for designers.

Human resources is less bad because it doesn't refer to specific people. And most people can't choose what the department is called. But they can choose what they call other people.
