- Define. Based on users’ needs and insights, the designer will clearly define the problem.
- Ideate. Defining potential creative solutions.
- Prototype. Using the solutions from the ideation phase a prototype (or multiple prototypes) will be built for testing.
- Test. Designers refer back to the users to make sure their designs are working the way that they had planned.
