“…This thesis is focused on small to medium web design businesses that provide the creation of websites for other businesses. While each web design business has its own methods and processes for the design and building of websites (Hecker, 2004), there are a series of tasks that are required to be completed within the process .The process that web design businesses often follow is referred to as the design process (Lawson, 2005), which commonly follows a waterfall or iterative/agile methodology, or a combination of both (Bauer, 2005;Bowles, 2008).While there has been research into the study of web design (Ames, 2001;Dorn & Guzdial, 2010;Duyne, Landay, & Hong, 2002;Lin, et. al., 2000), these studies have not focused on unpacking the communication or working processes within the context, rather they have focused on the technical practice of web design.…”

“…Also thanks to Justin Marrington, Anthony Web designers are professionals who participate in and facilitate the creation of design. They accomplish this through enacting a series of methods and practices that is known as the design process to create solutions to problems (Lawson, 2005).The design process is not an enforced series of steps; rather, it is a reactive, adaptive and reflective process that is enacted based on the changing requirements of the design (Schön, 1983). As different from forms of art, design is not a formalisation of creativity; rather it is a series of processes created to solve tangible and real-world problems (Norman, 2002).…”

Web Designer / Client Communication: An in-situ development and evaluation of tools and methods to support the collaborative design of interactive technologies

The web design industry is a modern and emerging service-oriented field that focuses on the design, development and marketing of web sites, applications and media. These services are most commonly used by small to medium enterprises A multi-staged approach is taken to address this question: understanding current practices through contextual interviews and participant observational studies and the incremental design and development of a middleware platform to facilitate the creation of new communication tools. The platform enables communication tools to build on the knowledge and processes contained within existing channels of communication, rather than attempting to replace them. The findings from these studies are synthesised to yield a set of design challenges that have been identified, and embodied within a visual representation known as the Designer-Client Communication Tool Canvas. The canvas serves two purposes: it is an encapsulation of the problems that tool designers face in creating tools for this context, and it is a guide for these tools designers to assist them in understanding the context for which they are designing.There are a number of contributions that this research makes to the fields of CSCW and HCI. This research provides an insight into the ways in which designers and clients interact within the web design industry. Additionally, it analyses the scope of tools that are available which are either aimed at supporting this work, or tools which are already in use within the web design context.

This study delved into the structuring of design briefs and investigated the impact of employing visual analogies compared to text analogies. We aimed to contribute to the growing body of research investigating the role of analogies in design problem‐solving. To do this, we conducted a controlled experiment at a university with 135 undergraduate students exploring analogical reasoning under various conditions, with a particular emphasis on identifying the negative aspects of the design problem. The first goal was to explore the potential of visual and text analogies to enhance design creativity outcomes generated in each condition, focusing on the novelty and usefulness of design solutions. The second goal was to verify whether statistical differences occur between the creative outcomes in visual and text analogy conditions. According to our findings, design briefs containing specific instructions for using text or visual analogies yielded highly novel outcomes. However, when text or visual analogies were prompted by statements concerning negative issues of the design problem, more useful outcomes were generated. Finally, negative statements should be considered when the design aims to improve the features of existing solutions.
