Communicating Design: Developing Web Site Documentation for Design and Planning Review
The book considered as a very good and valuable reference, I think it’s essential for those in the field (development) to have this book in their libraries.
Dan Brown really opened my eyes on different methodologies on design documentation, the content inventory, Concept models, and even the Competitive analysis which I’ve been performing for a while now. There are some parts of the book that i already know and was useless (not in bad meaning) to me such as usability test, usability reports, and persona.
The best part of the book for me was the site map which is amazingly great.
Communicating Design: Developing Web Site Documentation for Design and Planning Overview
Most discussion about Web design seems to focus on the creative process, yet turning concept into reality requires a strong set of deliverables?the documentation (concept model, site maps, usability reports, and more) that serves as the primary communication tool between designers and customers. Here at last is a guide devoted to just that topic. Combining quick tips for improving deliverables with in-depth discussions of presentation and risk mitigation techniques, author Dan Brown shows you how to make the documentation you’re required to provide into the most efficient communications tool possible. He begins with an introductory section about deliverables and their place in the overall process, and then delves into to the different types of deliverables. From usability reports to project plans, content maps, flow charts, wireframes, site maps, and more, each chapter includes a contents checklist, presentation strategy, maintenance strategy, a description of the development process and the deliverable’s impact on the project, and more.
