Writing a Design Brief

People are constantly surrounded by objects that compete for their attention. What were the designers thinking when they created these objects? What purposes do their creations serve, and what problems do they address?

Question #2: What purpose does the product serve?

An infant might use the toy as a learning/play-center. The product also appears to convert into a walker, and might be used to help a toddler balance upright as he/she begins to walk. Therefore, the product may be a combination play-center/walker. Question #2: What purpose does the product serve?

Children need to prepare for school. Parents need toys to keep their children occupied. Children quickly outgrow their toys. Children need toys to help them develop their cognitive abilities and fine motor skills. Question #3: What issues might the product address?

Question #4: What might the design brief look like?

Client / End User / Target Consumer Problem Statement Design Statement Constraints Question #4: What might the design brief look like?

A large toy manufacturer, such as Playskool™, Fisher Price™, Leap Frog™, etc. Obviously, a child is the end user, but a person (parent, family member, or family friend) considering the purchase of an educational toy for an infant or toddler would be the target consumer. Who might the Client be? Who was the Target Consumer?

The Client

Often the target consumer and the client are one in the same. Since it is very difficult to know who the actual designer was, that portion has been omitted for this example. Note: Target Consumer

A growing expectation is that infants and toddlers will develop cognitive abilities and fine motor skills during the first three years of life. What could the Problem Statement have looked like?
