Abstract
Sound is a neglected subject of today’s products and services.
The new technologies changed the way we interact with the
people, objects and the world around us, thus, designers
should aim at all senses, contemplating a multi sensorial
experience. In this scenario sound becomes an important
aspect to be considered during the project phase in a design
process. Sound becomes part of the product identity and
expression, the way the product talks to us. To foster this
scenario designers should be aware of the possibilities and
attributes of sound and how to explore them in a creative way.
In this short paper we investigated published articles,
workshops and publications to collect sound methods and
techniques to be used into a design process. As a result, we
proposed twenty essential sound methods that could be
applied in a design thinking context. This is an ongoing
research, part of a thesis experiment, since further methods
and refinement could be added in the future.
