Prototyping the Experience Workshop PEx

  • Gill Wildman

A two day workshop back in 2010 hosted at the ICA in London, and later rolled out across other parts of this global company. It was deliberately set up to work across disciplines for Nokia, we designed this as a design process to explore new prototyping methods and new technologies. We designed a workshop for taking teams of different disciplines across Nokia through a two-day prototyping process. The workshop introduced new ways of prototyping whilst giving the teams live briefs to work on in small groups. They formed new relationships, developed greater understanding of each other’s way of seeing things, and language, and got to grips with new prototyping methods and in-house tools. We designed and facilitated the first one, and the client then took on the facilitation of this workshop and took it to 3 other global cities to bring it to a larger audience.
