My Design Process


Before I start designing anything, I always do research and write out all limitations and issue I might face.
Note down the list of requirements the item is required to help with the skatching and prototyping process.

This is my design process if you would like to follow along

  1. List down requirements, expectation, limitations of the item
  2. Research on item done by others or your past projects.
  3. Sketches and protyping(My favorate part)
  4. Test fit, final modifications, data collection and Documentation
    (Repeat step 3 if you have to)
  5. Project completion


What? How? Results?

Use the thinking of "What? How? Results" as a guild to process and document your product/item. You should be able to answer at least 2 from each question

  1. What:
    • What does the item do.
    • What are the features does this item have.
    • What would the bill of material be?.
    • What are the expectation and limaitations of the item.
    • What makes this a better option than then ones in the market.

  2. How?
    • How does your produce/item accomplish the task.
    • How do you design your product. (what software/drawing did you use)
    • How did you overcome any obstacles you had.
    • How did you make/produce your item/product.
    • How much would the product cost.

  3. Results?
    • What is the final outcome of your product/item.
    • How do you use/operate your product/item.
    • Is there any improvements that can be made?
    • What could you have done to acomplish any task more efficiently.
