What it covers
This unit develops practical design skills in a user-Centered product design context. It will apply an understanding of usability considerations to the design of a product or range of products that respond directly to user needs. This studio aims to introduce user-centred design, ergonomics and anthropometrics through the exploration of human-machine/artefact interactions, and explore the social, cultural and psychological implications of product design.
