WHAT THE PROCESS
LOOKS LIKE

An overview of the key phases in the product design process and what to expect. Whether it's an idea from scratch, a full product overhaul, a targeted feature enhancement, or a refined interface experience, the approach is tailored to your specific requirements.

01

Establishing Needs

Before designing, it’s essential to define the problem. Whether building from scratch or refining an existing product, this phase clarifies what needs to be done, why, and for whom. Understanding the broader business goals and user pain points ensures that design decisions align with both impact and feasibility.

OUTCOMES

USER & MARKET RESEARCH

JOURNEY MAPPING

COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS

PRODUCT STRATEGY

FEATURE ROADMAP

02

Product Vision

Mapping out the foundation of the product, including its structure, core features, and how users will interact with it. This step ensures clarity before design begins. Establishing a clear framework at this stage reduces complexity later, making iteration and scaling more efficient.

OUTCOMES

FEATURE PRIORITIZATION

INTERACTION MAPPING

DATA MODEL & SYSTEM LOGIC

UX CONCEPTING

03

Interaction Design

Bringing the product to life through interface design and interactive behaviors. This phase focuses on usability, clarity, and system scalability while ensuring every interaction feels intuitive. Rather than just creating static screens, this step defines how users engage with the product across different touchpoints.

OUTCOMES

UI & INTERACTION PATTERNS

MICRO-INTERACTION DESIGN

USABILITY TESTING

ACCESSIBILITY DESIGN

04

Product Validation

Ensuring the product is both functional and effective goes beyond just handing off design files. This phase focuses on validating the design through real user interactions, identifying pain points, and refining key features before launch. Collaboration with developers helps maintain design integrity, while live testing ensures the product performs as intended in real-world scenarios.

OUTCOMES

DEVELOPER COLLABORATION

DESIGN INTENT REVIEW

FUNCTIONAL PROTOTYPE

LIVE USER TESTING
