In episode 10, we started a design project by creating the Overall Function and Sub-Functions for a clever plastic bottle cap design.


Today we're going to continue with that example, to the next step in the process, creating the Functional Map.


The Functional Map is a powerful representation of our system, and how it works within our user’s system. We use it for brainstorming solutions and failure modes in the Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis.


You have great ideas. It's time to turn them into products. The Heroic Design Workbook and Masterclasses are now available for purchase.
