How to do an effective design review.

Design review is a very important link of the design process. We've all experienced this kind of design review-- some people are distracted by unimportant details, some people are off the point too much in discussion, and other people issue opinions before they fully understand your design schemes. Inefficient design reviews not only waste 6 to 10 hours of valuable time per person per week in the whole team, but result in inefficient discussions due to unclear objectives after the reviews. A design team needs to know enough about different methods of design review, and make the effective design review exclusive to the team according to its actual situation,make its members think about what others think and help others offer advice, which opens new angles of view and improves design quality and efficiency.

In this workshop, the keynote speaker will, with the practical design review cases of Intercom/Medium/Facebook as well as the lessons, describe the different design review processes of start-ups and large companies, the problems that may arise in different methods as well as the solutions, how to give review opinions and accept review opinions, help the audience to deepen their understandings in the form of group exercises and find effective design review methods suitable for the teams.
