Methodische Gestaltungsübung, Wintersemester 2017/18
bei Prof. Christian Zöllner und Amelie Goldfuß, 2. Studienjahr Bachelor
In this project we dealt with the sensuality of objects, products and functions. The term Senseware was coined by Japanese designer Kenya Hara and describes objects and artefacts with a strong sensual quality. Building on this, we actively explored the tactile and haptic qualities inherent in certain materials and forms and how they can be combined. We attached great importance to intensive prototyping and worked with different programs that can be used quickly and according to the design phases. Since products are no longer just static, but increasingly dynamic, the students learned to develop their own functioning prototypes with Arduino and electronic controls and implement them as 1:1 models.
