Through this writing assessment opportunity, I would like to define UX(User Experience) Design and focus on strategic and optimizing the user experience through reasonable doubts and criticism. In this writing period, I desire to find out what UX(User Experience) design methodology is, what tools can improve my research, and what inspires my work. We also want to verify how effective it is to plan and perform items or services during the design process, analyze data, persuade clients, and find out how well customers use the deliverables and respond. 

 

I have more than five years of experience as a UX(User Experience) designer, researcher, and planner, and I will continue my career after I learn Healthcare and Design at RCA. So this methodology is indispensable in my life, but how much is it going to make me a designer who does more research, design, and planning?  

I chose this topic to get inspiration and inspiration from various aspects of UX Design technology.

 

In 2005, the British Design Council announced a process known as the Double Diamond. This design methodology, which is divided into four stages (discovery, definition, development, and delivery), leads designers to the various ways of thinking used. 

According to the British Design Council, the team is the 'discovery' and 'definition' step that they skip the most when working on a project, but unfortunately the team does a good job of researching the project's goals, users' needs and motivations to show the boss and clients. When the team start a project, they need to start from the 'discovery' stage to create innovative products or services, so they can achieve an excellent user experience. 

There are many design methodologies known in the world so far, and their range varies from field research areas to design, injection, and sales stages.

 | In 2005, the British Design Commission published a design methodology known as the Double-diamond design process model. This design methodology, divided into four stages (discovery, definition, development, and delivery), helps designers have different ways of thinking about finding the right problem and helps solve problems that meet human needs. The first step, 'Discover', is to empathize and observe the problems and stakeholders. At this stage, the user can understand how to solve the current problem and can pinpoint the problem by doing contextual user research of 'sympathy', 'observation', and 'interpretation'. The second step, 'Define', is to define what users need. Albert Einstein (1879-1955) wrote the following famous words: "If I had 20 days to solve a problem, I'd spend 19 days on defining a problem," but for a company obsessed with a solution, taking a long time to define a problem might seem like a waste of time. According to the British Design Council, the 'discovery' and 'definition' phases are both steps to ensure a superior user experience and are critical in coming up with innovative solutions. It is important to determine the right issues and best solutions to be resolved. (Book reference, The design of everyday things). Unfortunately, we often skip the Discovery and Definition stages most often, and go straight to the Development stage to show our bosses and customers that we're working. (Book reference) The third stage, 'Develop', is the stage of prototyping several potential solutions developed in the previous stage. Develop with a learned solution and re-test usability and modify the design according to the results. There's something to be careful about at this stage, which can only be focused on products or services designed during usability testing. You should think about how consumers use the product, what difficulties they will face while using it, and whether there are any other problems. These repetitive design tasks provide the best solution. In the final phase of 'Deliver', end users and companies will test for usability and the project can be finalized. The goal in the 'Develop' and 'Deliver' stages is to find the right problem and meet human needs. Step 4 is repeated continuously, creating more insight, and getting closer to the solution you were aiming for. Through a deep understanding of people, we can discover people's needs, and we need a deep understanding again to implement the solutions we came up with to solve the problem. ‘Rule of thumb for User Experience: More options, more problems.’ Scott Belsky from the Chief Product Officer said. Simplicity is everything when it comes to great UX. The user experience of products should be as straightforward as possible. Great UX design is about simplifying the user journey, and this means getting rid of all and any elements that aren’t absolutely necessary.   |
