Video Series 1: Introduction to Design Strategy

Design strategy is all about experienceemotional insight, and narratives, built on a foundation of empathy. It’s designing for behavior over time instead of just a single moment in a static artifact.

In this introduction to design strategy, Jon Kolko—expert designer, strategist, educator, author, founder of Austin Center for Design, and COO here at Modernist—discusses the ins and outs of combining design and business, transcending reality, getting real about careers, and creating value for companies large and small.

From Disney to Blackboard, learn about using design strategy to build iconic brands, products, services, and systems that users want and need.
