The document discusses the need for designers to take a long-term perspective when designing digital products and services. It advocates designing for ecosystems rather than single products or touchpoints. It provides principles for long-term design such as designing for worst case scenarios, balancing ego with humility, and going slow to go fast later. The document also presents a metaphor of the four seasons to represent different phases of the design process from concepting to recovery.

Design outside
the lines
As the discipline of design broadens its horizons, new challenges
are arising. To continue making an impact, designers need to evolve
how they work, learn, and differentiate themselves.

Most digital products aren’t products.
They’re service ecosystems.
Political, economic, social, technological ecosystem
• We need to prevent our service from becoming obsolete
• We need to understand the effect of our service on society
Business ecosystem
• We need to extend our market offering
• We are falling behind our competitors
Multi-channel service
• Our brand experience is not seamless
• Our service needs to feel more personalized and magical
Single touchpoint
• People are not using our service
• We don’t know how to reach and connect with our customers

16. “We made the working drawings just
ahead of the actual construction going
on at the building site so therefore
development was not very far ahead of
what was actually going on at the site
at any one time.”
