Design Tool – Visualization 

 Challenge & Selection 

 Visualization or Visual Thinking is a tool I like using every time am to do a graphic 

 design so as create a pictorial representation of an intended graphic design . First , I 

 conceive it , then I draw a rough sketch of it on a piece of paper , then necessary 

 adjustments are made to the wireframe before implementing . I also employ 

 visualization when collaborating with co – graphic designers in order to achieve a 

 shared understanding of a problem space before attempting to identify and define 

 possible solutions to the problem . I often use this approach with our customers , who 

 want a unique graphical works like flyers , posters , magazines and other print and web 

 media . 

 Application 

 I apply visualization by first creating a straw man graphic of the problem domain . In 

 order to develop the straw man graphic , I sometimes from any existing material 

 available make a sketch to understand problem at hand . I sometimes get to know the 

 thoughts of my target audience by having an interview or chat with them . 

 Now in order to properly apply this design tool , I try to ask my client to explain what 

 he / she actually need in the graphic work to be done , I get to know her color choices , 

 brand and also what emotion the graphic work should convene . With the right 

 information I get from this client , I tend to make a picture of the intended designs , the 

 color combination , the light reflections and alignments , then sketching and designing 

 of the work begins . The end result is always an awesome job which the client 

 appreciates . 

 Insight & Approach 

 Some spectacular things I have learned from conducting this exercise with several 

 groups is that while try conversing the proposed graphic with a client , the have this 

 feeling of being in charge and this makes them more relaxed , focused and also being 

 able to give out maximum cooperation . 

 Visualizing a problem gives the different group of audience a focal point which enables 

 them to share their perspectives and develop insights into potential root causes of 

 their problems . Through a collaborative manner , they could create the graphic from a 

 blank slate starting with a straw man jump which starts the conversation for them . 

 With this , they can quickly identify their position in the graphic , more also , they can 

 more quickly gain new insights about relationships between key entities instead of 

 taking time to identify them . 

 With visualization , they can also identify variables in the problem space and be guided 

 on what area to get necessary information for the variables . 

 Since I discovered how exceptional visualization can be in a shared insights and 

 learning , I would never hesitate to use the visualization activity as a takeoff board for 

 my design thinking activities . Then the revised graphic with a combined feedback can 

 used as a reference tool throughout in the project .
