1
Safari of Understanding

Kick-off your journey in the wild savannah of your client’s world. Your mission is to discover their business ecosystem, understand their goals, and identify the challenges they face. Pack your bag with curiosity and empathy, and get ready to uncover hidden insights.

– Excursions (client meetings)
– In-depth exploration (stakeholder interviews)
– Safari guides (market research)

2
Field Research Expedition

Next, we switch our compass to the users’ perspective. This stage is like an archeological dig, uncovering precious artifacts about users’ behaviors, needs, and motivations.

– Observing wildlife (user interviews)
– Catch and release surveys
– Creating field guides (user personas)
– Charting migration patterns (user journey mapping)
– Quality control checks (usability testing)

3
Mapping the Terrain

Armed with knowledge from our research expedition, we map out the problem landscape. This topographical guide ensures we’re navigating towards the right destination.

– Creating landmarks (problem statements)
– Charting routes (user stories)
– Sketching the landscape (empathy maps)

4
Idea Incubation

Now it’s time to huddle in our creative nests and hatch a myriad of solution eggs. The sky’s the limit during this stage – no idea is too wild!

– Brainstorming flurries
– Idea sketches
– Storyboard doodles
– Mind mapping adventures

5
Crafting the Camouflage

Just as a chameleon morphs its colors, we shape our ideas into a tangible form. From low-fidelity sketches to interactive digital blueprints, we prototype potential solutions.

– Origami prototypes (paper prototyping)
– Digital shapeshifting (Sketch, Adobe XD, Figma)
– Outlining the habitat (wireframing)

6
Jungle Gym Testing

In this stage, our prototypes swing through the jungle gym of user testing. We gather feedback and refine our designs to ensure they seamlessly blend into the user’s environment.

– Jungle gym trials (usability testing)
– Selective evolution (A/B Testing)
– Thermal scans (heatmaps)
– Birdsong feedback (user surveys)

7
Chameleon Transformation

With each round of feedback, our design evolves, much like our Chameleon adapting to its environment. We refine and reshape until we achieve a natural harmony.

– Camouflage adjustments (updating prototypes)
– Further trials (user testing)
– Adaptive design

8
Full Bloom Implementation

Once our designs are fully evolved, they’re ready to come to life. We work with our software developers to turn our carefully crafted designs into reality.

– Full-color design
– Transition to the wild (design handoff to developers)
– Symbiotic development (collaboration with developers)

9
Continuous Conservation

Even after the launch, our job isn’t done. We continue to monitor, learn, and adapt our designs based on ongoing user feedback and needs, ensuring our solutions remain vibrant and effective.

– Long-term tracking (user surveys, analytics)
– Conservation efforts (usability testing)

10
Reflect & Evolve

Every journey in the wild offers lessons. We take time to bask in the sun, reflect on our adventures, and integrate these insights into our future expeditions.

– Gathering around the fire (project retrospectives)
– Growing our knowledge (updating UX best practices)
