management - project management
management - project set out and time planning - planning and set out of complete project run. phase and time management, project controlling
research and analysis - first phase - fact finding, systematic analysis of general situation, specific aspects and all influencing factors
research and analysis - collection and elaboration of data - collection of diverse data: consumer behaviour, general and specifis market situation, competitor analysis, product analysis, research on market niches etc.
concept - systematic use of research results - the systematic use of research results becomes the basis for the definition of general concept and important features of the new product to be designed: user interface, functionality, element composition, product architecture, materials, production method etc.
concept - development process - systematic conception - example of a straight forward method for concept development: systematic use of associations to generate innovative combinations
concept - development process - divergent ideation and convergent systematic - preparation: definition of general situation, client target and design criteria 1. use of creativity techniques 2. analysis, choice and elaboration of results, devision in groups 3. congretization of chosen ideas, sketches in scale, definition 4. fixing of intermediate results 5. detailing 1 : 1 drawings and rough model 6. elaboration of presentation materials in 2d such as illustrator
concept - presentation of concepts - concept - represantation of product worlds, emotional aspects, scenarios and user interaction: mood boards, storyboards etc.
concept - idea development - use of scribbles, rough sketches + simple renderings drawings as means for the design devolpment and for quick and simple presentation
concept - further development with hand drawings and 2d-cad drawings
concept - experimenting with simple models, exploring functional aspects
concept - experimenting with fast models for quick understanding of forms + functions
concept - checking in 1:1 scale - functional and ergonomic tests
implementation - definition in 2d and 3d
implementation - definition with final models and prototypes
implementation - concretization, realization and verification
implementation - event and presentation activities
