Real design problem

What is the real problem to be solved with our design?

The client may not know the "real" problem. They may even think they know. Designers should attempt to escape a structural mindset. We are not just designing a manual with sections and pages, etc. We are not just defining a role with characteristics, tasks, behaviors, etc.

Mass customization - made possible by modularity of goods.

Using existing infrastructure introduces constraints to be accounted for in the design.

Read chapter 1 of Krippendorff.
