It is intended to accompany students in their first full design project—from idea to product—throughout one twelve-week term. The pace, depth and breadth are ideal for novice design students, combining individual and team assignments and going through the four phases, or 4Ds of design: discover, define, develop and deliver. Examples of successful product designs are given throughout the book, as a motivation for the novice designer, along with up-to-date references.
