Loosen Up: Injecting Play Into The Design Process - Ondemand Design |
"Rinat Aruh and Johan Liden of the New York–based design consultancy aruliden explain how playing around can help designers create better products and benefit the bottom line. Using examples of recent work for Microsoft, Puma, and Kiki de Montparnasse, they outline their nontraditional approach to product design and brand development, a process they call producting, which seamlessly integrates design and marketing to create well-rounded solutions for clients both large and small.
