agile | scrum — design thinking | design box
We espouse the agile|scrum iterative design and development process, founded in the ideals of Design Thinking and the Design Box approach.
A series of short-term stages (called "sprints") progressively work through a backlog of project requirements. Each sprint has a chunk of targets, and each is evaluated for functionality and "fun"
-- if it's not fun, it's out! … "Fun", of course, is an "objective" term for an aesthetic goal, differing within any particular experiential realm.
Design Box is a design containment approach expressed by Altizer, et.al.
