Creating the Stack Wrapper

diving into user research and human-centered design at the farmers market


During fall ‘18 I took a class on human centered design. The first several week long design project of the class focused on improving the vendor experience at the farmers market. In small teams, we went out in the field to conduct interviews and test prototypes while learning new design skills and tools to improve our approaches to finding needs and possible solutions.

Challenge:

How might we reimagine the vendor experience at farmers markets?

Takeaways:

  • how to be less awkward about conducting interviews and asking questions

  • getting less attached to solutions but rather focusing in on the need

  • synthesizing different opinions to come to a point of view to focus on
