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.

You’ve done user research. Now what? Join us for this hands-on session to learn how to interpret research data, prioritize findings, and create actionable design research items. Learn about the task analysis grid, how to create data-driven personas, and what the persona DNA model is.

Find out how to use actionable design research to inform your prototype. We’ll discuss 8 guiding principles that will help you avoid common mistakes made during prototyping. And finally, we’ll discuss a number of prototyping methods and give a number of tips and techniques for common prototyping tools.
