The 6-8-5 Method can be used in a number of ways to help with ideation and brainstorming, but also for fine tuning your designs and ideas. This session will focus on generating ideas in the form of rapid sketches around a set of requirements, then validating and fine-tuning them through structured pitching and critiquing. You don't need to be an artist or a designer, and you won’t need a laptop—just bring your favorite pencil and get ready to sketch!
