s4h-design

Entry point for the design thinking toolkit. Routes to the right design skill based on your situation. Use when you say 'design', 'user needs', 'what do people actually want', 'design constraints', 'prototype and iterate', 'simplify this', 'remove what's unnecessary', or want design thinking applied without knowing which specific tool fits.

# Design

Applies design thinking to problems of form, function, and fit — finding what people actually need, using constraints productively, shaping through iteration, and cutting to the essential. Diagnoses what kind of design work is needed and applies the right tool.

## Which tool fits

| You need to... | Tool |
|---|---|
| Find what people actually need, beneath what they say they want | user-needs |
| Map hard limits versus soft preferences and understand the solution space they define | design-constraints |
| Structure a feedback loop between making and learning | iteration |
| Remove what's unnecessary and find the essential form | simplicity |
