Sustainable Pace, Agile, and The Big Design Refactor
How much design should a project start with? Why is Agile so tough for designers? How can designers achieve sustainable pace?
There are a handful of perennial agile-and-design questions that keep coming up. Part of solving them involves acknowledging that the pace of design changes over the course of a project. Acknowledging the different rhythms - and identifying the beats that are in sync - can help teams work together in harmony.
