D13 - PRODUCT DESIGN 2

The course addresses the theme of sustainable and slow mobility as a strategic area of innovation for contemporary product design. In response to the need to reduce pollution, urban traffic and energy consumption, the workshop explores the design of products, accessories and micro-infrastructures for light, electrified mobility focused on people's well-being.
The course focuses on the development of industrialisable product concepts related to micro-mobility (bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, light cargo bikes), accessories and technical clothing for urban mobility, as well as solutions for physical and digital infrastructure (smart lighting, signage, charging systems, street furniture). Particular attention is paid to user experience, safety, environmental sustainability and the relationship between product, user and territorial context. The Product Design 2 course provides advanced training in product design, introducing students to the theoretical and operational knowledge of Human Centred Design, ergonomics and problem solving applied to design for product innovation.
