1 like•422 views
Prototyping is not a new concept, but the role it plays in the design process has changed dramatically in the last few years. Proliferation of agile methods and the grassroots nature of design thinking have opened up new opportunities where research and design happen simultaneously. New tools for building digital prototypes have given design teams numerous options from very simple demos to complex proof of concepts. Learn about the Devbridge Design team's experience as they explore cases where prototyping has driven the design and research process. With varying levels of complexity and fidelity, each has had a different outcome.

The earlier we can do this the better. Whatever validation we can gain is valuable. Many times initial business requirements are unclear or lack user focus. Prototyping allows us switch the focus and sharpen a vague idea 1. 2. 3. 4.
