What problems are being solved here?
DESIGN IS CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING

Who is the user for each chair?
Even though these are all chairs, how does the design change for the intended user?
DESIGN HAS A USER IN MIND

Most prescription bottles look the same and that can be confusing in a household. By designing the option of colored coded rings, each family member can clearly identify their own medication.
BIG PROBLEM, SIMPLE DESIGN SOLUTION

THE DESIGN PROCESS
The design process is a method used to solve problems. Problem solvers can pursue multiple ideas, make connections, empathize with the end-user, test ideas, and improve concepts.

This process can be used for any type of design.
The OXO Good Grips Peeler, designed by Sam Farber and Smart Design, is an example of using the design process for a user-centered solution.

Designers begin by defining the problem.
Sam Farber observed his wife Betsy’s arthritis pain caused by trying to cook and prepare food with conventional utensils.
With further research, Farber realized that there was not a product on the market that alleviated this pain, and that many people would benefit from improved cooking utensils.

Empathy is an important part of user-centered design. As Farber defined his problem, he did more research to empathize with potential users.
As Farber researched and observed, he noted that a traditional peeler:
• Was a necessity in any kitchen.
• Had some safety issues.
• Was difficult to use for a broad range of people (including those with arthritis).
This research helped him further define the problem.

Once a problem has been defined and the needs of the user identified, designers generate possible solutions using various brainstormingtechniques.
The project partners generated many ideas that considered the material, shape, and friction of the handle.

Prototypes allow designers to bring ideas to life, share designs with others, and see what works.
Here are some of the prototypes that were created, tested, and improved.

Testers peeling potatoes with prototypes.
Designers test products with users and interview them about what works and what doesn’t. Testing may lead to more prototyping.
Several different iterations of the OXO peeler were developed and tested with the public, including chefs, cooks, and New York arthritis groups.

The final stage is to launch the solution.
The OXO Good Grips Peeler that went to market solved the defined problems through:
• A material that had a slight surface friction, was soft enough to squeeze, firm enough to keep its overall shape, and capable of being cleaned in the dishwasher.
• An ergonomic shape.
• A shape and material that provides a safe grip even when wet.
