2. Project Background
George Institute of Global Health
Sticky Design Studio was commissioned to deliver wire-frames for a mobile application aimed at creating
health related behavior for cardio-vascular disease patients for the George Institute of Global Health.
A user-centred design process was followed involving design research with patients, internal workshops
with George Institute researchers, prototype development and user validation of prototypes.

3. Design Research / Cultural Probes
Patients completed some diary studies relating to their health behaviour.
Some photographs were taken to document their day. This approach assisted the project team to
gain empathy for the user group and better understand patient’s life contexts. This enabled us to
understand how a mobile health tool could fit into patient’s lives.
4. Design Research / Journey mapping workshops
Journey Maps were co-constructed with cardio-vascular disease patients.
Through this activity, patient experiences and activities could be documented and discussed.
By using these maps as frameworks, patients could easily communicate their previous
experiences and opportunities for the service could be identified.
5. Design Research / Co-Design workshops
Users designed their own application functionality in co-design workshops using ‘feature cards’.
This activity enabled the design team to gain more information about how users would prefer to
interact with different features of the tool.

Design research was synthesised using a series of personas (i.e. data driven patient profiles).
It was intended that these could be used by the organisation for future design projects aimed
at this user group. These personas informed the design of the mobile application.
7. Design Research / Patient Journey Map
Printed journey maps were used in internal workshops with the client to relay insights, identify
opportunities and co-design features and processes. These maps enabled the organisation to
consider the application as constituting part of a broader continuum for the patient.

8. Prototype & Test
Over a three week period a series of prototypes
were developed with increasing fidelity. These
were tested with patients and refined.
After this prototyping process was complete,
specifications were delivered to inform graphic
design and technical development of the app.
Visual design and development is currently
being completed by a third party IT company.
