Session: Bending the Curve with Our Thinking about Design Foundations
We hear a lot about design and how it is important to the creation or enhancement of systems, products, and even immersive experiences (also in the metaverse) - but how do we truly design better, more comprehensively, more inclusively, or more accessibly in today's tech-driven world? How do we begin to affect meaningful change in organizations and businesses? Let’s explore how the understanding of strategic design and how knowledge around schemas and mental models support and elevate design program foundations, which ultimately enable us to design better and innovate in today’s tech-driven world.Key Takeaways
- Strategic design is a game-changer for businesses and organizations - it goes beyond tactical and product-focused design and anchors organizational design culture and thinking to support innovation.
- Schemas and mental models are foundational to design - these assist with simplified and complex human knowledge development and deconfliction of past experience.
- Mindful, inclusive, and sustainable immersive or Metaverse design innovation must be enabled through strong design foundations.
