How to organize and present your design explorations for feedback

If you're like me, you probably have a huge sandbox of different ideas for ideation and exploration.
How do you organize your design file to make sense for other designers, engineers or PMs? Watch the video for real examples I've used at Uber Eats and Wealthsimple :)

You are the best Femke! I started following you a couple of years ago, when I wanted to start being a Product designer - UX designer, and here I am with almost 2 years of experience. Your videos have helped me a lot (and still help me 🥰) thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience 💪🏼

This is EXACTLY what I need right now! Thanks so much Femke! Your jamming session with PM is such a validation for someone who just started part-timing as a product designer for a startup. I was doing something really similar the other day and was not sure if that was the way to go. The reporting is different from when I freelance on a project-based pricing gig. So I just wanted to say thank you for the real world examples and walkthroughs. Keep them coming!

Hey Femke! Thank you for sharing this video with us. I was also having a similar practice when I was presenting my design ideation/exploration but you have a way more structured and clearer way to make it so much better! I am so gonna try adopting this :)

Around 8:25 you spoke about jamming with PM. - How do you jam with PM with a non-design background who doesn't think about exploration beyond MVP or first solution? - What if they are not well informed on usability and visual design principles? I guess that doesn't matter if your only trying to ideate and select a concept/direction.

@femkedesign 2 жыл бұрын

The answer is the same; I'd first sit down and discuss the value of design and ensure they understand the role design can plan in the success of the project, and how we can work together. This video may help: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdaUpMWqr569pZc.html

Love this video as it’s full of practical examples! I’m wondering which version you would choose for user testing, the MVP or the vision?

@femkedesign 2 жыл бұрын

Practically probably the MVP as it's where we can gain the most valuable insights to help us ship.

When giving these presentations, do you supply other resources outside of Figma like a Notion or google doc of requirements, specs, research, or data?

@femkedesign 2 жыл бұрын

I try to link to those resources inside the Figma itself most of the time. usually I have an overview page in figma with links to relevant resources. But yeah if I'm sharing async and there's a relevant accompanying doc, I'd link it also.
