“Design Basics,” a VPI CNRE guest lectureBen Capozzi
Twice now, I have been invited to speak with students in the Packaging Design curriculum in Virginia Tech's College of Natural Resources and the Environment. These are non-graphic design students who focus mainly on materials, and I was asked to give them an overview of design basics and some of the tools. I also included some general notes on creativity, observation, and resources, AND some in-class exercises to stimulate creativity adapted from Edward de Bono. I often include images of the Great Pacific Trash Gyres in my presentations in order to place the need for good design —from concept to execution in all phases of a product's life— foremost in student minds.
Esta es una revista hecha por IDEO.
"Puedes prototipar cualquier cosa" es la primera edición. Dentro de ella conocerás a dos amigos que probaron el concepto de restaurante en su habitación. También, la forma en que se probaron más de 100 modelos de mouse para llegar un insight clave de diseño.

An amusing and fascinating description of the human race, this book delves into the systematic analysis of people and their primary characteristics. It is based on the concept that there are five main personality types. Every type can be identified on sight, and recognition of personalities is centered solely around physical appearance. This science of character recognition is explained in precise terms that are broad enough to relate to. Virtually anyone can connect with and believe in the theory.
This description of human analysis focuses on the idea that every individual fits a certain mold. The elemental traits of each person can be recognized by his or her body shape and physical attributes. This publication details the importance of understanding oneself as well as the necessity of relating to others. It explains that instantly reading a person’s physical characteristics leads to awareness, which may promote healthier, more successful relationships.

Comunication & Storytelling for Product Managers (and anyone else)Christina Wodtke
Half-Day Interactive Workshop
“Get ready to actively participate in your transformation from product manager to product leader”
A product manager rarely has any authority beyond what they can talk people into, thus we need to become really strong communicators. In this half-day interactive workshop, we’ll look at the three kinds of communication: managing up, team communications, and the very important roadshow for getting other groups onboard with your vision. We will use the power of story for formal communication and a combination of techniques from NVC (Harvard’s negotiation project) and the GSB’s “touchy feely” class to make sure your message gets through, and that we are listening effectively.
This special half-day training workshop, with product author and lecturer, Christina Wodtke, is specifically designed for product managers who are looking to really level up their communications skills and who want to use story-telling to effectively communicate with others.
The problem with unexpected consequences is that they are unexpected. The time of "move fast and break things" is over, as we have broken everything from hearts to democracy.
It's time for designers, along with their partners - engineers and business - to embrace a new long term approach to bringing change into the world, that focuses less on disruption and more on evolution. In this talk, Christina will explore various approaches to designing more robust and compassionate change.

Using Lean to Create High-Velocity Teams (Until 2:00pm)
Great products come from great teams, yet very few companies try their hand at at team design. Too often we rip job descriptions off the web, throw people together without preamble, then simmer in passive-aggressive discontent until someone eventually fires the person we’ve all been rolling our eyes at. Or worse, we avoid firing him until everyone good quits. Can Lean show us a better way to get things done?
Christina Wodtke teaches Lean Entrepreneurship at the university level and coaches executives how to create high-performing organizations. From this intersection she has helped a new kind of team emerge: the Lean Team.
What is the Lean Team?
-Hypothesizes about how we do our work, not just what work we’ll do.
-Holds no ao assumptions about the best way to get things done.
-Is constantly iterating.
-Commits to peer-to-peer accountability and coaching.
-Embraces diversity in experience and culture.
-Engages in formal reflection to increase learning velocity.
The best teams don’t just use Lean Startup methods to create breakthrough products. They use the learning cycle to reduce interpersonal conflict, communicate effectively, and get more done. In this breakout session, we’ll look at the best practices that high velocity, high-learning teams use, and how you can bring them back to your company.

In school we learn to write as a fundamental building block for communication, and drawing is shunted away to “art class.” But scientists like Darwin and Marie Curie, presidents from Jefferson to Obama, and mathematicians, choreographers, and composers all have used sketching to give form to their ideas. Words are abstract and ambiguous, and can lead to miscommunication. We say a picture is worth a thousand words, so why do we discard this critical tool?
Drawing is not just for so-called creatives. Drawing allows you to ideate, communicate, and collaborate with your team. Stop talking around your vision, and get it on the whiteboard where your team can see it! Whether you’re an entrepreneur, an engineer, or a product manager, drawing will make you better at your job. In this workshop, you will go from “can’t draw a straight line” to visually representing complex ideas. First, we’ll demystify the act of sketching. Through a series of activities and exercises, we’ll cover the fundamental building blocks of visual communication. You’ll learn easy ways to draw the most common images, from people to interfaces. Next, we’ll tackle making storyboards, product flows, and interfaces. We’ll finish by working with charts, mental models, and canvases. This is a hands-on workshop, so come with paper, pencils, and pens, and be ready to make your mark.

From Starchitects to Design Gurus, the lone designer-hero has been our model for creating impact. But it’s a complete lie. The complex software, smart devices and connected information environments we create require multidisciplinary teams. So we must spend a lot of time getting teamwork right, right?
Sadly, no.
Instead we rip job descriptions off the web, throw people together without preamble, simmer in passive-aggressive discontent until we eventually fire the person we’ve all been rolling our eyes at. Or worse, we avoid firing him until everyone good quits.
It’s time to give teams the same attention and craft we give our products. Christina will share the lessons from top companies in the Silicon Valley for you to take back to your teams. It doesn’t matter if you are a manager or a peer leader, these approaches will make your team thrive. Awesome products come from awesome teams, so it’s time to stop doing business as usual and design a team for impact.
Teaching Game Design to Teach Interaction DesignChristina Wodtke
All educators seek the magic trinity of attention, comprehension, and retention. For interaction design educators, the struggle to achieve these goals is even greater. Hopeful designers enter the field with lofty aspirations, yet they still need to learn the fundamental principles of design and build the core skills of an interaction designer. While keeping design students engaged is undoubtedly a challenge, there is a medium that allows students to internalize the fundamentals of design by experiencing them.
Games.
Games have become ubiquitous in our culture. They are inherently engaging. Some are good and some are… not. By teaching design students how to design games, educators expose their students to the basics of interaction design in ways that the students can experience themselves. Concepts like affordance, skill building, storytelling, and emotion become real rather than just conceptual. Altering the parameters of their games helps students feel the effect these concepts have on their games.
This method has the potential to improve interaction design education across the board by ensuring that design graduates have internalized the fundamentals by the time they are ready to enter the field. What’s more, any design educator can learn to teach interaction design by teaching their students how to design games. After all, it’s fun!

2. A LOVELY STORY

daydreaming,
the house

dreamer,
the house

peace.”
― Gaston
Bachelard, The
Poetics of Space
4. My first house in Iowa City was scheduled to be torn
down to be replaced by apartments. We lived month to
month, not knowing when we’d move out. I learned that
many of the most precious things in life aren’t forever.
I’ve never loved a house so much.
5. Internet as New Third Place?
“All great societies provide informal meeting
places, like the Forum in ancient Rome or a
contemporary English pub. But since World War
II, America has ceased doing so. The
neighborhood tavern hasn't followed the middle
class out to the suburbs...” -- Ray Oldenburg
7. 205 Structure Follows
Social Spaces
Conflict
No building ever feels right to the
people in it unless the physical
spaces (defined by columns, walls, and
ceilings) are congruent with the social
spaces (defined by activities and
human groups).
Resolution
A first principle of construction; on no
account allow the engineering to
dictate the building's form. Place the
load bearing elements- the columns and
the walls and floors- according to the
social spaces of the building; never
modify the social spaces to conform to
the engineering structure of the building.
8. The wide stairs make room for socialization,
without impeding travel.
This is a natural gathering spot.

“When the arrangement of the apartments is
faultless and presents no hindrance to
use, and when each class of building is
assigned to its suitable and appropriate
exposure” Vitruvius
Sound familiar?
We’re talking
usability!

This logical and elegant 38story skyscraper (525' H)
has alternating horizontal
bands of bronze plating
and bronze-tinted glass
and decorative bronze Ibeams which emphasize
its verticality. Placed to
the rear of its site and set
back from Park Avenue, it
incorporates a large plaza
in the front as part of the
design--thus avoiding the
need for set-backs. It
uses granite pillars at the
base and has a two-story
glass-enclosed lobby.

‘I do not like ducts; I do not like pipes. I hate
them really thoroughly, but because I hate

took no care, I think they would invade the
building and completely destroy it.’

57. Structure
“And if you think of Brick, for instance,
and you say to Brick,
"What do you want Brick?"
And Brick says to you
"I like an Arch."
And if you say to Brick
"Look, arches are expensive,
and I can use a concrete lintel over you.
What do you think of that?"
"Brick?"
Brick says:
"... I like an Arch"
It’ s important to honor the material.“ – Louis
69. What do you associate with a nest?
What feelings? What memories?
70. It nests at the end of a tunnel bored by
itself in a bank. There,
six or eight white and translucent eggs are
laid, on fishbones
not on bare clay, on bones thrown up in
pellets by the birds.
On these
rejectamenta
(as they accumulate they form a cupshaped structure) the young are born.
And, as they are fed and grow, this nest of
excrement and decayed fish becomes
a
dripping, fetid mass
Charles Olson uses the kingfisher nest to play
against the sense of security nests give us.

The hotel had several design features that made up for its foundation:The reflecting pool (visible in the picture above) also provided a source of water for fire-fighting, saving the building from the post-earthquake firestorm;[1]Cantilevered floors and balconies provided extra support for the floors;A copper roof, which cannot fall on people below the way a tile roof can;Seismic separation joints, located about every 20 m along the building;Tapered walls, thicker on lower floors, increasing their strength;Suspended piping and wiring, instead of being encased in concrete, as well as smooth curves, making them more resistant to fracture.[2]
The MIT project, they were interviewing me for MIT and they sent their facilities people to Bilbao. I met them in Bilbao. They came for three days.W: This is the computer building.G: They were there for three days and it rained every day. And they kept walking around. I noticed they were looking under things and looking for things, and they wanted to know where the buckets were hidden, people putting buckets out. I was clean. There wasn't a bloody leak in the place. It was just fantastic. But you've got to -- yeah, well, up until then, every building leaked.W: Frank had a sort of -- sort of had a fame -- his -- his fame was built on that in L.A. for a while. You know, Frank, you've all heard the Frank Lloyd Wright story when the guy -- the woman called and said, "Mr. Wright, my -- I'm sitting in the couch and the water's pouring in on my head," and he said, "Madame, move your chair."G: So, some years later I was doing a little house on the beach for Norton Simon, and his secretary was kind of a hell-on-wheels type lady -- called me and said, Mr. Simon's sitting at his desk, and the water's coming in on his head, and I told him the Frank Lloyd Wright story.W: Didn't get a laugh.G: No. Not now either.
It's the "Then What?" that most clients who hire architects -- most clients aren't hiring architects for that. They're hiring them to get it done, get it on budget, you know, and not -- you know, be polite -- and they're missing out on the -- the real value of an architect.
