Description
Bill Buxton revolutionized the way people approach design in Morgan Kafumann’s Sketching User Experiences. The book was endorsed by Bill Gates, and named the best innovation book of 2007 by Strategy+Business.

Design sketching is much like what it sounds like: putting pencil to paper as a first step to design of any interactive technology –– website, software application, or mobile devices. Sketching User Experiences book gavesthe compelling argument as to why sketching is an integral part of the design process, and provided a series of methodologies for designers. Bill Buxton is now back with a how–to–sketch workbook that applies the methodologies in his book in a simple, straight forward manner. Sketching User Experiences: The Workbook can be used as a complement to any book on UX design. It contains exercises that can be used as stand–alone modules for trainings and for practitioners who want to hone their skills, or as a compliment to ANY book on design.
