I’ve gotten to a point where I don’t agree with some things we’ve come to know as status-quo product design. Still questioning the assumptions I’ve made.
Sometimes I feel it’s too scientific & limits the role of creativity, spontaneity & fun. When you zoom out, ideating takes a second seat to testing & it feels odd. Worth noting products like the iPhone used different processes than we use today.
Other times it feels like portfolios & the industry’s expectation of it is to emphasize successes within the process & not failures.
Also, solutions created today might create new problems down the line as scale happens & newer assumptions emerge. Portfolios seem not to demonstrate how products evolve over time.
Anyways these questions come up as a result of introspection & my little experience. I don’t know it all, but I know it’ll be wrong to assume there aren’t things to unlearn or gaps within the system
