This Is a Prototype

“This sharp little book will get you making more with less. Dozens of methods show how designers can use prototypes for asking questions, framing experiences, and observing behaviors. The bright illustrations and concrete examples will show you how to ground your prototypes in crystal-clear intentions.”—Ellen Lupton, co-author of Health Design Thinking“This Is a Prototype is filled with actionable tactics and a terrific emphasis on how to ask good questions, the prerequisite for all the world’s best answers. This book is the Lonely Planet guide to your brain, for people who want to get off their own beaten paths and make new ones.”—John Cassidy, founder of Klutz Press
