This paper is a research through design approach (Zimmerman et al 2007),that seeks to reflect upon several designerly practices in action. Chiefly it’sconcerned with describing the development of a web-service withcollaborative media elements, as part of a user-centred design process, tosupport physiotherapy patients during their self-directed recovery. The reportalso reflects on a failed first design attempt, and draws through that reflectiondescribes the way I now choose to operate as a designer. The paper proposesa new definition of design for well-being which draws upon and combineswork by Dodge et al (2012) and Miller & Kälviäinen (2006). Finally, thereport also proposes a series of further steps to take in the futures to developthe web-service.
