Forces thorough design conversation before premature planning or implementation. Based on Frederick P. Brooks' "design tree" concept: walk down each branch, resolve dependencies between decisions one by one.
Start a guided design exploration interview by framing the problem and walking the design tree through all major branches before proposing any solution.

Exploring a design tree before coding involves guiding a structured interview to frame the problem, walk down each decision branch, and resolve dependencies across data models, APIs, and UI to produce a documented decision log.
A structured product design interview is a staged conversation that identifies user pain points and success criteria, challenges hidden assumptions, and confirms shared understanding before architecture choices are finalized.
Documenting design decisions requires summarizing the explored design branches, open questions, and risks from the interview into a draft decision log with ticket ideas and an alignment plan for next steps.
Yes, structured design exploration supports architecture choices by mapping upstream and downstream dependencies including data models, API structures, permissions, and migration paths across multiple design branches.
You should challenge assumptions during product design discussions after walking the design tree, probing hidden assumptions with targeted questions to explore alternative approaches before confirming shared understanding.
Skipping design exploration before ticketing risks premature planning by failing to resolve dependencies between decisions, leading to misaligned architecture choices and undocumented risks during implementation.
