Design Products explores new terrain for designing products. aiming to evolve new design disciplines and practices. We actively challenge and critique the current concepts and assumptions around 'products'. Join us to develop cutting-edge creative practice for designing better futures. You'll take various approaches throughout your studies, including design subtraction, multi-species design, circularity, questions for action, products delimited, design doing, design justice and decolonising design. We anticipate that these areas will evolve and adapt year-to-year.
We work in collaboration with industry, whilst also exploring new locations and relationships for designing products, from design interventions to working with start-ups, governments or global agencies. We measure the success of our design impacts against the United Nations Sustainability Development Goal’s and the design territory of products within systems.
