This document discusses the design sprint process for developing solutions to problems. It describes the 5 steps as: 1) Mapping the problem by understanding it through interviews and identifying requirements and constraints, 2) Sketching solutions through creative ideation, 3) Deciding on a solution by sharing, discussing, and voting on ideas, 4) Prototyping the solution through a 3D printed object or mockup, and 5) Testing the prototype to learn about the solution through user interviews or experiments. The overall goal is to use design thinking and the design sprint approach to foster circular design through rapid prototyping and testing of ideas.

1. Mapping the problem
UNDERSTAND!
• Interview relevant people
• Clarify the problem you want to solve
• Start at the end: describe the world without
your problem
• Identify requirements for solutions
• Identify constraints for solutions
2. Sketch solutions
DIVERGE!
• Sketch ideas on an A4 sheet
• Get creative!
• Picture your idea
• Make it intelligible to others
• Repeat!

3. Decide your solution
CONVERGE!
• Share ideas at a team level
• Discuss and clarify
• Vote
• Get feedback from the company
• Merge, combine, review
BUILD!
The prototype is an object that allows you to
test whether your idea of solution actually
works (Lean Startup Method)
Examples:
3D-printed object
Interface mockup or wireframe
Storyboard, user scenarios
It must enable test and learning!

5. Testing
LEARN!
• What do you want to learn about your
solution?
• What is that you are not sure about?
• Design and execute a test
• Different methodologies available: from
interviews, to experiments
