Design Process

我此前是在新創科技公司擔任 UIUX 設計師;公司規模還無法辦法組成一個專業的設計團隊,所以我日常的工作模式較近似於跨功能團隊 (cross-functional team),直接從執行長獲得需求、回報進度,時常需要跨足 PM 的角色與工程師來回溝通。

I worked as an UIUX Designer in a startup. So rather than working in a design team, I work more like a cross-functional team member. I usually get the design request and present the project directly to the CEO.

This is how I work in my daily life.

I · 確認需求 Confirm the Request

在專案會議或討論上快速掌握功能需求、使用對象、期望完成的目標與作業時間;並在第一時間評估執行性、可能會遇到的問題、是否與原有的目標走向和架構邏輯有衝突,最後再重整羅列一次需求項目。

The design process has to be speed and efficient , and I often need to catch up the developing progress to make sure the project is perfectly done.

II · 規劃 Scope Defining & Construction

針對需求主題進行搜尋研究,抓取既有相近的流程進行參考,畫出使用流程架構和線稿,過程同步與工程師討論可行性,並將完成度分成階段、定義每個階段的設計與開發範圍,與團隊確認方向無誤,再接續進入 UI 設計。

Collecting similar processes and research based on the subject of the requirement, and start outlining the structure. I often begin with some rough frameworks or pencil sketches / UX flowcharts before moving onto a more rigorous ui design. Then discuss the feasibility with the engineers, and divide the scope into phases.

After defining the scope with my supervisor, i would hav a stand-up meeting with the engineers

III · 設計 Design

運用建立好的元件與視覺系統來設計 UI,保持設計一致性;如果時程充裕,會再做成 Prototype 測試體驗最終的呈現效果。

Before moving on to a more rigorous design, I often begin with some rough frameworks or pencil sketches / UX flowcharts. While designing, I would use the components that I build up and follow the UI system to maintain consistency. And create a prototype to test and experience the final presentation effects.

IV · Review Test & Handover

將完成的介面展示給團隊成員或客戶審視,確認沒有遺漏規劃的項目、以及開發的可行性,就移交設計給工程進行開發。

Present the completed design to my supervisor or clients for review, ensuring that no planned items have been overlooked and verifying the feasibility of development. Once confirmed, hand over the design to the engineering team.
