Yes / No IGNITE
“One of the time saving tricks we learned during 20 years of teaching was the Yes/No answer. To avoid endless email writing and phone time, answering student questions, we requested that students frame their questions so we could answer with a simple ‘yes or no.’ We saved time and also noticed that the students’ questions became much more interesting and at times, elegant. From that realization and a number of others we began to realize that the questions in Design are far more important than the answers. It was a major Ah-Ha for us.
Since then our design practice has switched from looking for the right answers to looking for the right questions to ask.”
Michael Cronan and Karin Hibma will share thirty-five years of their Ah-Ha’s (and some Ha-Ha’s) with you and will offer some thoughts on the future of design.
