Service design is a new discipline which allows us to effectively set up an offer consisting of both tangible and intangible elements, through the combined use of methodologies and knowledge which come from design and social services. This book examines the rise in service design as a discipline, reviews its main tools and proposes a model where design can give value in each and every one of the phases of a new service developing process. The aim of this text is to at least stimulate interest among members of both groups: companies and entrepreneurs, who, hopefully, will have a clear idea of why, how and when a designer can help them improve their business idea after reading this. Also professional designers, who may see an opportunity for a big future in the design of specialised services.

Service design is a new discipline which offers an effective way for businesses to devise, develop and sell a service, including tangible and intangible elements, using a combination of methods and knowledge drawn from design and the social sciences. "Design At Your Service" analyses the birth of service design as a discipline, summarising its main tools, and putting forward a model showing how design can add value at every stage in the development of a new service.
