Integrating Design Into Your Workflow
Karl Kaufmann @karolus
Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it's really how it works.
-STEVE JOBS
Benefits
Integrating design into your workflow boosts team understanding and collaboration, minimizes costly changes, and delivers your client a product much more smoothly.
Design Process Workflow
Empathy for all project members is key—as well as leaving the fear to be wrong behind. Rapid iteration and close collaboration.
Sketch Prototypes and Style Tiles
Quick method to share ideas with the team, as well as test potential problems without a large development timeframe
Technical Benefits
Visual assets tell the story far better than coding and/or documentation—especially for non-technical team members
Wrap-Up
Bringing your team together to solve project challenges collaboratively saves time and minimizes the potential for major roadblocks.
Additionally, practitioners of different disciplines approach challenges differently—and so seemingly insurmountable challenges can be overcome.
