Sample question
In the first diamond of the Double Diamond design approach, which activity has the purpose of researching end-user needs and synthesising the data so that a real need or opportunity can be defined?
  • Producing and implementing
  • Generating and designing
  • Investigating and defining
  • Planning and managing
Show the worked answer

Answer: C

Investigating and defining is the first-diamond activity that gathers and synthesises data about end users so a real need or opportunity can be stated in the brief. Generating and designing produces product concepts in the second diamond, producing and implementing is making the product, and planning and managing organises research and designing without itself defining the need.
