Book Synopsis Predictable Magic by : Deepa Prahalad
Download or read book Predictable Magic written by Deepa Prahalad. This book was released on 2010-07-19. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Companies invest fortunes on innovation and product strategy. But, by some estimates, 80% of new products fail or dramatically underperform every year, though a few rare products succeed brilliantly. Why is this the case? Their creators have seamlessly integrated corporate strategy with design. They don’t deliver utilitarian objects: they craft rewarding, empowering experiences. To outsiders, this looks like magic: incomprehensible, and impossible to reproduce. But it isn’t. Predictable Magic presents a complete design process for making the “magic” happen -- over and over again. Veteran industrial designer Ravi Sawhney and business strategist Deepa Prahalad introduce Psycho-Aesthetics, a breakthrough approach for systematically creating deep emotional connections between consumers and brands. Step by step, the authors cover everything from research to strategy, implementation to consumer experience. They also demonstrate Psycho-Aesthetics at work – in case studies from some of the world’s top companies, including Sprint, Medtronic, Amana, and Hyundai. You’ll see how these great companies have used Psycho-Aesthetics to go beyond the utilitarian (or even the merely “beautiful”), to build products that powerfully connect with people... touch them... move them... time and again.

Book Synopsis UX Magic by : Daniel Rosenberg
Download or read book UX Magic written by Daniel Rosenberg. This book was released on 2020-01-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It takes conviction to title a user experience book that stands solidly on a cognitive science foundation as "Magic" but through the practice of the Semantic Interaction Design method this breakthrough book introduces you will appear to many as possessing superhero UX powers.The Semantic IxD method is laser focused on transforming product requirements into experiences guaranteed to result in the minimum cognitive load with the smallest number of screens and fewest flow steps possible. An additional benefit it provides is a 10X speed increase at which designers can achieve these magical results. It provides an antidote to the expensive and endless A/B trials resulting in suboptimal products propagated by the proponents of design Darwinism. It can also mitigate the excessive hours wasted in opinion and personality oriented UX debates during product development meetings.UX Magic builds upon an HCI conceptual model foundation leveraging human natural language understanding and extends it into the GUI layers of design pattern visualization, UX flow and applied game theory to create optimal user experiences that also align well with business objectives. In addition to guiding you to minimize cognitive load from the very start of sketching screens it will also lead to UX designs that scale well into the future as product functionality grows with each successive release.

Book Synopsis Exposing the Magic of Design by : Jon Kolko
Download or read book Exposing the Magic of Design written by Jon Kolko. This book was released on 2011-03-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design synthesis is a way of thinking about complicated, multifaceted problems of a large scale with a repeatable degree of success. Design synthesis methods can be applied in business, with the goal of producing new and compelling products and services, and they can be applied in government, with the goal of changing culture and bettering society. In both contexts, however, there is a need for speed and for aggressive action. This text is immediately relevant, and is more relevant than ever, as we acknowledge and continually reference a feeling of an impending and massive change. Simply, this text is intended to act as a practitioner's guide to exposing the magic of design.
