SUNDAY REWIND: Stop thinking about the user interface

This week’s Sunday Rewind takes us back a few years to an article from Juan Jose Ramirez that unpicks our approach to product design and suggests a design methodology that product managers may find useful to add to their workflow.

Discover more insights from our Sunday Rewind series.

He says: “The problem with this approach is that they’re not showing the users the intrinsic solution. They’re just assuming that their implementation is the correct solution and they’re missing a world of user feedback by doing this.”

Juan Jose Ramirez’ methodology has five stages – understand, observe, visualise and predict, evaluate and refine, and define.

He says: “After completing the five-stage process you will have a document that is an invaluable prototyping asset.”
