Presented at the Service Design Network Conference 09 in Madeira. The presentation is about a work-in-progress examining how we can best expand the service design blueprint diagramming to include other critical information such as time and emotional states of the participants in the service.

38. - Are blueprints still a valid tool? Do we need to further them?
- How much information should go into them? (Analysis vs. design
development)
- What is missing in our approach?
- Should it be wrapped into a software tool or better a toolkit?
- Please share your blueprints, methods and case studies! It’s good for the
industry to open up its processes and its essential for service design
education.
