Austin Center for Design Q3 Student presentation by James Lewis, Anna Krachey and Meghan Corbett. This is a presentation from a graduate level interaction design course focused on Ideation and Development. Our group iteratively developed, prototyped and tested a design solution to help pregnant women. This was based on qualitative design research conducted in a previous quarter. About The Design Idea: Inner Circle and helps expectant mothers make decisions about their own wishes and boundaries around their upcoming births. By offering simple questions, prompts and examples of other women's choices, Inner Circle helps mothers create a clean plan for friends and family in advance so that she can focus on the labor and deliver of her baby when the time comes.
