Interaction Design

The module «Object Experience» explores how the choices of form and material affect our senses and interactions. Perceptual approaches to design consider form as something that affords a sensory-motor experience. We combine such approaches with traditional product design methods such as sketching of an object's geometrical form and constructing physical prototypes. We use simple materials such as paper or foam to explore the potential of the three-dimensional forms. We will learn how to study and to design physical objects so that they trigger a sensory experience.
