Based on the double diamond model, Designpedia is constructed according to a process composed of four development stages. This is not a stagnant, linear process, but instead, consists of four seasons or moments, that we must move through with agility as we identify and build ideas and concepts. Even so, it is a repetitive process and each working stage paves the way into the next. We are able to move forward as well as backward depending on the results achieved.
1. Work framework
2. Design challenge
3. Concept
4. Implementation
The process starts with the mapping action. We have to make ourselves become a team and establish the limits of the project by defining the framework of the work. Once the fundamentals are clear, it's time to compile information via a process of exploration in order to complete the action. For this we use a summarising exercise to help us to define the Design Challenge to be tackled: what is the problem we have to solve and what is its context? Finding a solution begins with idea formation and prototype-framing, in other words, building concepts to be subsequently tested with the users to validate and run the solution (reformulate and reprocess) for final implementation.
