I like meaty design problems

I ♥ design protoypes

experience over documentation

experience over documentation

Exploring how new ideas feel

Exploring how new ideas feel

Proving that a design is technically acheivable

Observing how people use a design

Design prototypes have a critical limit

Time

Desiging Products live on and with you.

Help you change your habits. Be healthier.

Interaction of behavior, software, and hardware over the long term

A working product is your prototype

A product that will iterate many, many times

Because it won't be right the first time. Or the second... Or the third...

How does the role of a designer change when developing a product?
