Ideation workshops typically involve gathering the data from the research inputs in order to understand the findings and extrapolate into high-level design requirements.
From these requirements design concepts can be created. Ideation workshops can also be a useful milestone from which to establish the next steps of a project.
High-level navigational concepts are formed and tested through further “reverse” card sorting exercises, mock-ups or prototypes.
Design concepts are generated by way of sketching prior to any high-fidelity wireframes.
Through the generation of multiple design concepts, ideas can be validated against the project, business or user requirements.
