UX Booth: User Experience & Usability Blog. The professional association for design. AIGA Standard Form of Agreement for Design Services — AIGA | the. This agreement allows you to create customized terms and conditions for different types of design engagements. Updated in 2020, it is modular to meet the needs of a growing design community involved in various disciplines. The AIGA Standard Form of Agreement for Design Services does not take a one-size-fits-all approach, and it is not an extensive pre-printed document where you simply fill in the blanks. Instead, this agreement acknowledges that most design firms develop their own custom proposal document for each project and are looking for an appropriate set of terms and conditions to attach to it.

When put together and signed, the custom proposal document and its attached terms and conditions comprise the binding agreement with the client. With this in mind, the focus of the agreement is on those terms and conditions. In addition to being more customizable, this modularity helps keep individual agreements down to a more manageable size. What every business needs — AIGA | the professional association.

Blueprint+ (Service Design Visual) April 14th, 2010 The academic group over at Hochschule Luzern (Competence Center) in Switzerland have recently explored a visual representation that captures the interaction of various people across multiple services or touch points. Done in the context of a service design assignment, the Blueprint project portrays the flow of time horizontally and captures multiple actors vertically.

More so, the visualization also layers additional data underneath and contains such things as fail lines, emotions and costs, while at the same time leaving more room for additional variables. In some way, the deliverable shares some resemblance to the Experience Maps posted earlier. As an additional note, Blueprint+ is still a work in progress and will be turned into a toolkit in the future. Stay tuned. :) Credits: CC Explanations and Services, Hochschule Luzern (Andy Polaine, Roman Aebersold, Robert Bossart and Andrea Mettler) Smart Design: The Breakup Letter.
