Design Process

At its root, design is about finding solutions to problems. That said, properly defining the problems to be solved and finding the right solutions requires methodology or process.

Damien Newman's "Design Process Squiggle"

While there are many useful tools and points of design process that I use, it is of course true that not every project requires (or may even see much return from) every one of them. So the process and tools used must be tailored to the needs of individual projects and project teams.

Naturally, much of my employed or contracted discovery, strategy and process work is confidential and is protected, work-for-hire, intellectual property and covered under NDAs. Thus, the majority of what is found here is scrubbed or independently manufactured. This should provide a glimpse into how I work and the materials I produce.

In addition to the materials here, please be aware that I do have a larger collection of process materials that I have permission to show in controlled conditions (e.g. a personal meeting, during an interview, etc.), but not to make publicly available. Thank you for your understanding.
