Building Medium-Fidelity Prototypes

Creating a set of wireframes that map out a UX Design project is a good start, but they only provide a rough idea of “where stuff goes.” Eventually, someone is going to ask, “So what does it look like?” This is where the next step in the UX Design process gets underway. A medium-fidelity prototype or mockup brings to life the “experience” behind “user experience.” They help to provide “proof of concept” and start the process of exposing the usability and accessibility issues that can only be revealed at this stage of the process.
