The whole idea is to generate a lot of concepts quickly and finally to integrate the best features from each.<BR/><BR/>Moreover such raw wireframes act as a bridge between the visually less skilled people who might have brilliant ideas and the ones capable of producing a good visual design derived from the former ideas.Anamayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17799205438589582526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194674.post-76465895330837928942009-01-28T21:29:00.000-05:002009-01-28T21:29:00.000-05:00This doesn't necessarily lessen your point, but pa...This doesn't necessarily lessen your point, but patent drawings are made to a specific standard, so I wouldn't assume that this drawing actually came out of the design process. More likely it was drawn in this form by a patent attorney. (But again, I think your point is still a good one.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194674.post-55194833635885844282009-01-28T17:22:00.000-05:002009-01-28T17:22:00.000-05:00Hi MiekI completely agree with you.

I tried to make a point about sketching only, not about the full design process where of course the aesthetics and detailed design is a crucial part of the quality of the final composition.

It would be a shame to see a wireframe sketch like this taken atthe last minute to be 'skinned' in order to make it more pleasing. And I'm sure apple put a ok of time and effort into developing such an aesthetic both in the visual treatment in order to bring a cohesive slickness not just for the purposes of appeal, but for making things more understandable. Both these approaches should be done together through a collaborative sketching process to shape visions of the whole.
