Abstract
Scenario-based design techniques belong to this complementary approach. In scenario based design, descriptions of how people accomplish tasks are a primary working design representation.
The scenario describes a sequence of actions and events that lead to an outcome. These actions and events are related in a usage context that includes the goals, plans, and reactions of the people taking part in the episode.
The concepts underlying ‘scenario-based’ design are introduced. From the analysis of a number of structured interviews with practicing designers, key design scenarios are identified. These scenarios are then generalised and outline guidelines developed for structuring early stage design.
