Method
Research. Sketch. Prototype. Refine. Build.
A simple framework for explaining how ideas become designed outcomes. Carried over from Annika's earlier site — the five steps are hers.
01
Research
Understand the person, problem, context, and constraints.
02
Sketch
Explore ideas quickly through drawing and visual thinking.
03
Prototype
Make ideas tangible through models, mockups, or digital studies.
04
Refine
Evaluate what works and what needs to change.
05
Build
Present the final direction clearly and intentionally.
One idea, developed
From sketch to finished model
A desk organizer developed through drawing and two increasingly resolved physical models.
