Design Research
Design Research plays a crucial role in the development of successful products and services. It is the process of gaining a deep understanding of the users and their needs, and the context in which the designs will be used.
This understanding is critical for designers to develop solutions that are well-suited to their intended purpose and context and meet the needs and preferences of the people who will use them.
To achieve this understanding, designers use various research methods such as user interviews, surveys, usability testing, and field studies. These methods help them gather data and insights that uncover people's values, motivations, and desires. With this information, designers can create solutions that are more likely to have a positive impact on people's lives.
Design Research is also crucial in ensuring that any business idea is grounded on actual market demand. By gathering data and insights on users' needs and preferences, designers can reduce uncertainty and increase the chances of a business idea's success.
