Project Houston

Project Houston

Microsoft's Pioneer Studios engaged Method to collaboratively develop the 3-5 year vision for search in the Entertainment and Devices Division of Microsoft. 

Our process was divided into three phases, the focal point of the process was a one day workshop which brought together executives from E&D and OSD.

We began by defining the project’s opportunity space. We synthesized research and trends into a print book for participants. We then brought together the divisions for a collaborate workshop to dive deeper into trends and insights.

As a result of the workshop, Method continued to refine and develop themes and extended ideas, producing one final book that summarized the workshop and extensions of it.
