DESIGN NOW PLAYS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN CONSUMER EXPERIENCES.
Good design creates positive experiences between people and products, spaces or systems.
Design’s power lies in its ability to create memorable experiences. People will always seek out something new - it’s a part of the human condition. Design's power is in creating richness and meaning by layering products or spaces with services.
Creating experiences which are captivating and engaging is one of the greatest challenges - but will reap the most rewards!
Doing anything less is a waste of time and money, and will look dated before it hits the floor.
DRIVERS
Once a project has gone live with a competitor it may cease to be “the new.”
To deliver rich experiences to your visitors, one should design with an eye for what will be innovative in 6 - 12 months time.
