Where do great ideas come from?
At Adaptive Path, our ideas are driven by the work we do. We do consulting for user interface and user experience design, and offer conferences, training and education for UX designers.
From field ethnography, UI wireframes and task flows, to visual design and implementation, we do it and we teach it.

Also gets the client and every single member of our internal team thinking along the same lines while maintaining primary focus on our little view of the world (heh, I jest).
Amazingly, they also drove the shape and nature of features. Back in 2002, we didn’t know what to call it, so it became either experience tenets, brand tenets or project tenets depending on the seeds from which they were borne. You’ll have to trust me that there was a discernible difference between each.
