Winter 2006: Week 2: Thoughts on readings
Thoughts on readings: ‘Notes on Design Practice: Stories and Prototypes as Catalysts for Communication and ‘The Publishing Team’
After reading the Design Practice chapter, I was surprised at the complexity of the design process itself. The amount of detailed planning and interaction with designers from different disciplines boggled my mind. Also, the fact that a tech-based product has so much of social and user interface is refreshing and reassuring.
What I’d like to understand further in class, is how much of this is driven by business needs and how the role of the publisher, managing editor, information architect etc (as discussed in ‘The Publishing Team’ chapter) fits into the design process. How do these different roles fit into the design life cycle?
