 Establishing a well-defined problem space provides the foundation for all subsequent creative and strategic decisions within the design process. A clear definition ensures alignment among project participants and helps to maintain focus throughout iterative development cycles. Establishing a well-defined problem space provides the foundation for all subsequent creative and strategic decisions within the design process.

 The research phase uncovers hidden needs, identifies opportunities for innovation, and helps designers anticipate potential obstacles. It establishes a knowledge base that informs and inspires the following ideation and development phases. The research phase uncovers hidden needs, identifies opportunities for innovation, and helps designers anticipate potential obstacles.

 Early visualization through sketches, scenarios, or low-fidelity prototypes supports communication and discussion. Iterative rounds of ideation can occur throughout the project, especially when new insights or challenges emerge. Early visualization through sketches, scenarios, or low-fidelity prototypes supports communication and discussion.

 Design development is iterative by nature: early concepts are evaluated, tested, and modified repeatedly to strengthen the solution's coherence, user relevance, and viability before moving into final production stages. Design development is iterative by nature: early concepts are evaluated, tested, and modified repeatedly to strengthen the solution's coherence, user relevance, and viability before moving into final production stages.

 Evaluation is seen as an opportunity for reflection and learning. Rather than providing definitive conclusions, it often leads to adjustments, refinements, or new directions within the iterative design cycle. Evaluation is seen as an opportunity for reflection and learning.
