To transform the concept into a final manifestation you need design skills and engineering skills. Vision remains the driver for every decision in the step. key activity is to make the idea behind the concept tangible (tastbaar) and realistic. constraints must now be entirely taken into account. The beauty of the ViP approach: Your vision…

qualities needs to  be conveyed (uitdrukken). In this step a transition is made from qualitative characteristics to some thing that has features and properties. Concepting = a translation of your vision (statement, interaction and product qualities) into a manifestation, a combination of features that literally can be perceived, used and experienced.

Qualities will be part of the vision. The focus in this step is to get a better understanding of the product at a qualitative level and still does not address any features or properties of a future product.

Core element of expertise in ViP design consists in understanding what kind of relationship or interaction, fits a specific context. not direct in possible solutions wb the product.

coherent structure that explain how the separate elements are connected. Reduce the variety and complexity of your initial set of factors. its describes the main pattern in your context. It is a clear and consistent picture of you future world. Two types: common quality’s or an emergent quality cluster (a new factor that is not…

Factors: observations, thoughts, theories, laws, considerations, trends, beliefs or opinions. (So, factors are not the final aspects/characteristics). These factors can be found everywhere: books, colleagues, students, scientific insights. They don’t include morale statements , etc. But yes psychological factors, social factors, economy,  (see essay On context) If you have a clear description of the context…

make a description of the area where you aim to make a contribution. In order to be able to assess the observations and consideration (= factors) that should be taken into account when you design a new product of solution using ViP  are relevant, you need to determine  the domain in which these starting points are relevant.…

Products are always reflections of some set of views and consideration.  These are interesting and worthwhile to find. A kind of warm-up free your mind see the changes in the context product level why is a product designed the way it is: what is the vision? How does it evolved to the current state? find…

P. Hekkert and M. van Dijk (2011)  Vision in design. A guidebook for innovators. BIS Basic principles: ViP: ‘A designer’s job is to look for possibilities and possible futures in stead of simple solve present-day problems.’ This means ViP- ideas are especially interesting if you want to change your education thoroughly.
