Process
MID at UArts promotes a design process that:
endorses sustainable business practice and to that extent considers it intrinsic to look at "bigger picture" scenarios and consider whole systems to drive change through design
expands knowledge pools by connecting to relevant research centers outside the enterprise and its immediate context
creates accessible visual maps of all stakeholders involved and the interaction and exchanges among them
informs collaborations through visualized, accessible design research that sparks dialogue and generates a list of key concerns as possible entry points for design projects
processes complex sets of information into knowledge and — in participatory and collaborative settings — produces actionable, design-orienting scenarios for further development and implementation
models and prototypes design concepts for testing and evaluation. Our process is cyclical and iterative. Our method creates value as learning happens and new knowledge is created
