In The Design Process, Fourth Edition author Karl Aspelund takes readers on a guided tour through the seven stages of design: from the initial Inspiration to Identification, Conceptualization, Exploration/Refinement, Definition/Modeling, Communication, and all the way through Production.

This book focuses on developing a solid foundation in design critical thinking, no matter the discipline.

The author highlights the all important factors of sustainability, teamwork, and how to best communicate with client or manufacturer.

Each chapter is followed by an exercise that allows you to work on one full cross-disciplinary project continuously from brainstorm to a physical product.
