I collaborate with my team or clients to comprehend their business objectives, user requirements, and challenges. I perform user research, market analysis, and competitor research to acquire knowledge that guides the design process.
Step 2: Designing the scope
After analyzing the information collected during the Discovery & Research phase, I determine the project's parameters, objectives, and performance indicators. I collaborate with my team to prioritize the features, functions, and user processes that are consistent with the project's aims.
Step 3: Design exploration
I develop a range of design concepts, wireframes, and prototypes to explore various design approaches. I share these ideas with my team and clients to get their feedback and incorporate their suggestions in refining the designs.
Step 4: Research
I perform usability testing to gather feedback from users and validate design concepts. Additionally, I test various design options to determine the most effective solutions that meet both user needs and business goals.
Step 5: Design refinement
After receiving feedback in the previous stage, I make necessary adjustments and refine the design with the help of my team. Our goal is to create a user-friendly, accessible, and visually appealing design.
Step 6: Handoff
I work with developers to make sure that the design is executed as planned. I offer design specifications, style guides, and resources that are essential for the development process. I verify that the design is uniform across various platforms and devices.
Step 7: Monitoring (Depends on project scope)
Following the product launch, I constantly monitor user feedback, perform user testing, and analyze user data to guarantee that the design fulfills both user requirements and business objectives. I make the required modifications and updates to the design to ensure ongoing user satisfaction.
