If you have data, put it to use – and always remember to test it out with real people.” EIN4891 – Senior Design Project II How to Design a Great Product Sketch before building “You can’t start a product simply by building it. You have to know why you’re building it, and you might go down the wrong rabbit hole, waste time, and confuse things. Spending long afternoons with a sketchbook or talking through your ideas with other people can save a year in software development later on.” “We were working on a product called Burbn, and it had all the elements designers look for – nice layout, good visual design – but it was far too complicated. When we had people sit down to test it, they just couldn’t grok why it would be useful to their lives.” EIN4891 – Senior Design Project II Process Design How the product is to be produced Who should do the processing?
