Master the complete design process from empathize to test through five steps: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test, using low- and high-fidelity mockups and real-user feedback.

Define phase translates empathize insights into a concise problem statement and user personas, guiding design focus by identifying key issues and shaping a clear use case.

Lead the ideate phase by empathizing with the user, gathering the design team, and brainstorming a wide range of ideas without judgement, then sketch rough concepts of the final product.

Turn wireframes into low- and high-fidelity mockups in the prototype phase, visualize concepts, gather feedback, and validate user needs. Define typography, colors, icons, and UI components for an accessible design.

Explore UX models and theories, including user centered design, information foraging theory, gestalt principles, affordance, cognitive load, and the hooked model for habit-forming products.

Discover information architecture as the structured layout of pages and content, linking home, product, cart, and account flows to organize information for clear, efficient interfaces.

Learn how wireframes serve as blueprints for the final ui, showing user personas, screen layouts, and rapid paper or digital iterations toward a project management dashboard.

The lecture covers grids, layout and spacing to create pixel-perfect digital products. It explains a 12-column grid, margins, gutters, and consistent eight-point or four-point spacing for cross-device user interface.

Explore visual hierarchy by using contrast, scale, and proximity to emphasize the CTA button and group related UI elements, then translate wireframes into high-fidelity mockups with colors, typography, and prototypes.

Understand how design systems streamline organizational design, what they are and how to create and use them, referencing Material Design for Android and Human Interface Guidelines for iOS.
