Before beginning the Re:Consent project, my approach was intentionally broad and exploratory. Initially, I envisioned creating a physical intervention something tactile that could exist within hospitals to support communication and consent. This early phase focused on “brain-to-hand” design through sketches and paper-based prototyping to visualise the maternal care journey. However, as the exploration progressed, several practical limitations emerged. Physical artefacts within hospital environments presented significant hygiene and management challenges, and maintaining cleanliness across shared objects became unrealistic in postnatal and labour settings. Through conversations with peers and clinical references, I also identified a recurring pain point: mothers and families are already overwhelmed by numerous physical materials such as brochures, consent papers, and printed guides. These are often fragmented, easily lost, and rarely revisited. As the healthcare system moves toward digitisation of records and education, it became evident that a digital solution would provide more flexibility, continuity, and accessibility. I therefore transitioned the concept into a digital design space, allowing for iterative refinement and real-time adaptability. Early journey maps and consent flows were still hand-drawn on paper to establish logic and narrative clarity. Once the structure was validated, I developed a digital prototype, which proved easier to iterate, manage, and integrate with existing hospital systems. This shift from physical to digital not only improved practicality but also aligned with contemporary trends in connected, trauma-informed healthcare design.
