Studying Ergonomics in Industrial Design II
Students in Industrial Design II class are learning about both ergonomics and materials as they design a handheld 3D form in clay. Once the form is built, they must figure out a way to translate that form into another material--foam--and still maintain the same size and shape. Creativity, precision, and craftsmanship are also a focus, with students creating shapes that are visually interesting and smooth to the touch.
