Midterm Worksheet

Develop Your Idea

I want to create a website that showcases my skills and identity as a product designer. My goal is to make the site visually engaging, with a strong emphasis on clean design and interactive elements that stand out from typical product design portfolios. To achieve this, I plan to incorporate features like 3D product renderings, micro-interactions, and animated transitions that demonstrate both the functionality and aesthetics of my designs.

These elements will not only highlight my technical expertise but also align with my design philosophy of balancing form and function. Ultimately, I want my website to serve as a professional portfolio and an authentic reflection of my creative process and design thinking.

Discovery and Research

I love clean, sleek, and modern designs. Some websites I found inspiring through my research include:

Design Factory

Their use of interactive product showcases and clean layout makes their work pop while keeping the focus on the technical and functional aspects of each design. The smooth scrolling animations and interactive product demos provide an engaging user experience.

IDEO

A global design company known for its innovative approach to industrial and product design. Their website features a modern, clean interface with smooth transitions, dynamic visuals, and an intuitive user experience. The design emphasizes both storytelling and the practical impact of their projects.

Target Audience

My website will target potential clients, design agencies, students, and design enthusiasts. Drawing inspiration from sites like Design Factory and IDEO, I want to create a professional yet approachable platform that showcases my skills through visually captivating and dynamic content.

By featuring case studies and interactive elements, I aim to convey my technical expertise and the real-world impact of my work, making it appealing to industry professionals and collaborators.
