Designing for health: object lessons

Submitted by on 05/05/2010 – 3:35 pmAdd comment

In keeping with the spirit of GlimmerSite, I wanted to point people to a great article/photo essay running on Wired.com. It features an assortment of designed objects from undergrad students at the California College of the Arts, each one addressing everyday problems involving health. The clever (sometimes wacky-looking) creations run the gamut from stress-relieving dolls to a drinking glass specially designed for someone who has MS. Check out the full portfolio of the designs at Wired.com.

  2. Designing a life of endless learning
  3. The collaborative magic of “Hibi no Neiro”
