Workshop takeaways

“The design process should be pursued intentionally and iteratively. The signatures from the “best” projects showed more overlap among the design stages over time.”
“Making the processes introspective may really help in a longer design challenge.”
“Consistent reflection about design process using tool is valuable versus being prescriptive about process in deliverables.”
“I want to use this visualization tool right away. This addresses a need I’ve been feeling for a while.”
