Design Products, Edition 2

Until 1998 nobody knew about the study course Industrial Design in Graz. Having started as recently as 1995 - with master practitioners as teachers working together with newcomers - the interesting mixture of motivation, engagement and competence led to international success. Design Products gives insights into the projects of a successful design school. The first volume of 2002 was out of print one year after its publication. The great international success called for a sequel. Design Products - Projects of the FH Graz, Edition 2 makes it clear that we are living in a time period in which the connection of creative quality and technical innovations makes a new product culture possible: design and engineering are no longer contradictions, but holistic solutions to user problems. As a consequence, design becomes a key factor for competitive enterprises.
