MY PROCESS
Inspired by the Design Council's Double Diamond, my iterative design process unfolds in four key phases. Each phase, bookended by initiation and reflection, is a dance between divergent exploration and focused convergence.
In simple terms, divergence is where we get creative; gathering data, possibilities and ideas from everyone involved. Convergence is narrowing down those ideas and focusing on the most promising options. The whole process is free-flowing and non-linear. We might gather some data, test some ideas and then go back and gather more data based on what we learn. Prototyping is a key aspect of this process, testing our ideas early.
Each phase concludes with reflection and learning, and then we might cycle back to the beginning.
