At Taylor Design, we collaborate with our clients to learn together and develop user-centered solutions that are effective, meaningful, and delightful. Our strategy-based design process is an iterative approach that leverages the best of lean methodology, human-centered design, and design thinking. We believe in getting to the most meaningful outcome as efficiently as possible, with human needs in mind.
This includes questioning core assumptions, investigating existing conditions, exploring analogous industries, understanding the competitive landscape, and observing behaviors in context. This holistic approach opens new paths for discovery and unleashes ideas that lead to innovative outcomes. I learned something. How do I interpret it? After the Discover phase, we enter a Define phase, where we tell stories, find patterns and frame early opportunities for design.

How We Work
Report
In practice, we begin every creative challenge with a Discover phase, where we identify the problem, prepare and conduct research, and gather inspiration from a wide range of sources.
The Define phase is where we tell stories, find patterns and frame early opportunities for design.
Once the design story has been articulated, we brainstorm possibilities and Develop our ideas, conceptually and concretely.
Finally, once we're aligned on a way forward, we Deliver by refining our work through to completion.

Sustainable Design
Report
We asked our team to write down why sustainability matters, covering a wall with notes.
This wall became an idea, and that idea turned into a plan of action.
Our commitment to sustainable design solutions is found in every aspect of our firm.
We recognize that the decisions we make in design and operations today directly affect our future generations.
Our pivot point is now and we pledge to act on it.
As contributors to 40% of the global CO2 emissions, we believe that the building industry has a major obligation to the reduction and reversal of contributing CO2 factors.

Healthcare
Report
The ideas as to what constitutes healthcare services are shifting in the minds of consumers, as increasing interest in integrative medicine and a more holistic approach to wellness becomes more common for both wellness purchasers and healthcare providers.
In spite of rapid and insistent changes in the health and wellness arena, what will remain constant is the steadfast need for designers to acquire deep understandings of the users they are designing for, their needs, and innovation as a goal.
Increasingly, complex medical procedures and surgeries are being performed via advanced technology, often with the practitioner at great distances from the patient, changing the relationship between medical staff and recipients of care.
