Knowledge Base Repository

In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters.

Abstract:
Prototyping in general is a widely used procedure within the product development process. Prototypes help to understand different and complex phenomena, support the communication between developers and customers and lower the risk of undesirable developments. There is however a lack of described methods for the development of the prototype itself to gain a maximum of knowledge. This paper therefore postulates a method for the development of early prototypes by identification of the critical properties of the final product. These properties lead to requirements for the prototype.
