About
Design to me is a combined process of observation, thinking, practice and communication. The design process I have set on through three years of my design education are; 1. to observe and study the users. 2. make sense of the data and information gathered from the users. 3. elaborate thinking and ideas through practice. 4. communicate the idea in the way it is most effective to the audience.
