Participate in a hands-on workshop, where you’ll learn how to use sketching and the design studio method for rapid design iteration. Find out how we’ve used methods borrowed from architecture and industrial design for faster better design. See how using the design studio method can help you generate several weeks worth of work in just one afternoon. Find out what the 6-8-5 method is.
But wait… there’s more.
Think paper is for making airplanes? Think again. We’ll show you how to do things with paper prototyping you never imagined, including AJAX-style transitions and simulations.
