Abstract

Although user participation has become a standard ingredient of modern product design, in most cases users participate only for a moment, e.g. one afternoon. In this poster we report a case where we had users, who had participated in a generative study, return after 4 months to evaluate the resulting concept design. Our experience in this study suggests that the ‘returning participants’ had retained the sensitivity for the product context that was built up during the first study.
