Adaptive Path on "sketchboards"
The excellent Adaptive Path blog has a post on a key piece of their process that they call "sketchboards." While they're an interactive firm, what they're describing is a crucial part of our process. The first step for us is always to get everybody in our "war room," armed with markers and whiteboards, and start ideating. For anybody that wants a peak under the hood, they've created a really cool, short video that visually documents the process.Make sure you read the full post hereThe sketchboard technique unleashes your right brain to find and convey great solutions pictorially. You get:
- Faster, but higher-quality design iterations that encourage heavy collaboration
- Exploration of many ideas before investing time in polishing one design
- Sketching and collage activities that provide design the same speed and focus that agility gives to coding
As a designer, the sketchboard allows you to create endless possible solutions in a vivid, pictorial form. You're set-up, again and again, for breakthrough moments. And with more shots on goal, you can't help but score regular and repeatedly.
