Welcome

Welcome to this celebration of the achievements of the UWE Product Design graduates of 2016. Their fantastic projects showcase how design can be used to solve real problems in the real world and demonstrate excellence in research, styling, technology and human-centred design. This year UWE Product Design has built greater connections with industry, with five highly successful live projects and a record 45% of second year students enrolling on placement year.

In 2016 UWE Product Design celebrates scoring 100% overall student satisfaction in the National Student Survey for both Product Design Technology and for Creative Product Design. We thank all of the students and staff for their passion, positive feedback and hard work.

Congratulations to our graduating students, we hope you enjoy their work.

Creative Product Design graduates are highly skilled creative problem solvers with an empathetic understanding of people. The course instils graduates with the confidence and ability to take risks, challenge conventional thinking and design products, services and user experiences which surprise and delight. At the heart of Creative Product Design is studio-based teaching, consisting of small friendly student groups and close contact to tutors, who all have expert experience working as professional designers. Through real world design projects, students develop an empathetic, intuitive understanding of people, tactile ergonomics, creativity and materials, as well as advanced skills in concept sketching and semantic form, model making and CAD. Graduates of Creative Product Design have strong transferable skills, allowing them to have successful careers in Product Design and across the creative industries, including; service design, graphic design, brand consultancy, retail design, design research, marketing and packaging design. The diversity of skills and experience gained make them highly employable by industry as designers and set to succeed in their own business ventures.

Brew box is a fully enclosed, semi-modular

brewing system where everything you need to

the sourcing of various parts and ingredients from

different suppliers.

This project is an experimental design project on generative design to find it’s uses and benefits within product design.

This lead me to produce my business LKJ Design, 9 versatile definitions able to create infinite designs, and 3 products which demonstrate this: A lamp, mouse, and a pair of shoes.

Tilt was designed to stimulate more

collaborative learning during lectures at

universities which are normally very didactic. It

encourages students to stand for collaborative

teaching and sit during traditional lecturing,

therefore breaking up the lecture, changing its

momentum and allowing students to refocus their

concentration on learning.

Live Project - Zodiac

ZODIAC SEATS UK - STUDIO LIVE PROJECTJanuary 2016 For three solid weeks this January, the whole of the final year immersed themselves in the Studio 3 Live Project. In keeping with the product design courses’ tradition of high quality external live projects, the project this year was run in conjunction with Zodiac Seats UK Ltd (ZSUK) – a division of Zodiac Aerospace. The trade journal Aircraft Interiors International takes up the story: “The brief given to the students was to ‘design a first class aircraft living environment that meets the varied needs of current and future high end air travellers’ .The full brief was designed to provide a level of freedom that would allow genuinely new ideas, but also ensure an undertone of realism to steer the students towards a concept that may actually be possible to realize. To ensure that all creative and technical aspects were considered, all teams had a mixture of both creative product and product design technology students.”

This was a challenging brief with tight physical constraints as well as a long list of passenger and client needs to be met. Full scale sections of a Boeing 777 passenger cabin were built in the studio to enable to students to fully appreciate the environment they were designing for. Three weeks later all the groups presented their projects to ZSUK back at their Cwmbran headquarters.

The students would like to say a big thank you to all the staff at UWE for all their help and support throughout our time at university. We’re grateful for having had the opportunity to participate in some fantastic live projects with external companies such as Omlet and Zodiac Aerospace.
