The document discusses the concept of presumptive design, which involves rapidly building prototypes based on assumptions to test with users, analyze feedback, and iterate quickly. It outlines the typical user experience design process versus the presumptive design cycle. A variety of design research tools are presented, and the top principles and risks of presumptive design are summarized. The presentation argues that presumptive design can provide valuable user feedback faster than traditional research-first approaches.

Information Architecture: Theory and Practice
Crafting World Class User Experiences
Imagine you are a carpenter at SeaTac…
– … and you are now responsible for testing counter-terrorism plans
Imagine you are a telephone sub-station technician…
– …and you are now responsible for managing 500 television channels
Imagine you are an 85 year old planning a world cruise…
– …and your browser is your booking agent
Imagine you need to ship 15 truck loads of parts…
– …in the next ten minutes and you don’t have a shipping department
Imagine you are an electronic engineer debugging a circuit...
– ...and you need to find the one wrong bit out of 8GB of data

Top 5 Principles of Presumptive Design
Design for failure
Create, discover, analyze
Make assumptions explicit
Iterate, iterate, iterate
The faster you go, the sooner you know
Have fun!
