It is also the tool through which a designer aims to achieve the underlying objective of a design project.

It is also the tool through which a designer aims to achieve the underlying objective of a design project. The audience is the primary target of the change in the world, the people who will be in direct contact with it.

It is also the tool through which a designer aims to achieve the underlying objective of a design project. The audience is the primary target of the change in the world, the people who will be in direct contact with it. Experiences arise from the audience’s interactions with the change in the world, leading to positive or negative impressions of the change in the world.

The audience is the primary target of the change in the world, the people who will be in direct contact with it. Experiences arise from the audience’s interactions with the change in the world, leading to positive or negative impressions of the change in the world. Other stakeholders are those who, directly or indirectly, influence a plan and its realization as a change in the world.

A designer, a stakeholder themselves, is the person responsible for engaging in the creative process via which a plan is arrived at.

Synthesize: Design Methods Steal ideas –Similar systems Mind mapping Lock yourself in a room with cool stuff Stream of conscious writing Taking observations and analyzing them and suggesting impovements Implementing (just go for it) Collaborative brainstorming Bringing pieces together Asking audience for ideas Generating crazy far out idea –Envisioning Take a break (SHOWER, NAP!) Generate structural alternatives; principled way of varying elements of the design © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek20June 25, 2015 – 20:03:07
21
Evaluate: Design Methods Evaluating prototypes What related systems do right and wrong User testing Simulators Run in parallel Imagine and execute anti- scenarios Internal review Storyboarding Approximations of the real thing? © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek21June 25, 2015 – 20:03:07
22
Analyze: Design Methods Observe the ideas –Right and wrong Get to know stakeholders and their goals Understanding shifting goals Being in contact Get to know audience Self-evaluations Context © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek22June 25, 2015 – 20:03:07

Tips for Design Studio I Ask yourself… –…do you have at least one alternative design that satisfactorily addresses each of the goals and uses of the various stakeholders? –…what methods are you using that we identified in class today? –…what tradeoffs are you making to address conflicts? –…do you have a complete and precise vision for the product? –…do you have a clear understanding of what users’ perceptions will be of this product? –…can you identify the mismatches in stakeholders’ expectations and what your envisioned product will provide? –… Basically, are you engaging with the design process consciously and purposefully? © 2010 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek23June 25, 2015 – 20:03:08
