After a crazy January start, I finally found a couple of minutes to catch up on some reading and research within the design world…

I just read this great article about paper prototyping, which reminded me of a project we just finished. We had been asked to redesign 2 portals in only a couple of weeks! This left us with a fantastic and exciting project but limited time to carry it out. After a first electronic start we soon realised that we would never meet the deadline and produce something amazing at the same time. This meant we had to pull our heads together and try a different approach, which lead us to pen and paper. This method saved us time and mainly meant that when we finally did go back to the computer we just had to make 1 digital mock up with a few minor amendments.

I would recommend to not only read the following article but try it out yourselves.
