Foundation Visit
9th December 2011
An old friend of mine, Carl Sylvester is now Head of Foundation Studies in Art & Design at Loughborough University. Not for the first time, Carl asked to bring round his 3D design students to show them how product development goes in the real world.
I remember as a Foundation student myself, no-one is thinking beyond getting on a degree course; but we hope to give the students a little taster and maybe a bit of inspiration as to how you can build a career or a business as a product designer. Most of all we think that having some practical skills and experience is fundamental to being a good product designer, and working with your hands, making models, building prototypes is about as much fun as you can have in your day job.
