Share Your Work, Share Your Opinion

The Magic of Planning Design Work

Design Planning is the “let’s take a beat and think about the work we’re about to do, so we can make this more efficient and less painful” part of the process. It can be hugely powerful in terms of providing clarity for designers before they start designing, and making sure to avoid “gotcha” moments that cause thrash and delays.
