¿Qué es el diseño? ¿Qué hacen los diseñadores para practicar su arte y que crean? ¿Qué importancia tiene el diseño de las corporaciones en la sociedad y la cultura? ¿Quiénes son algunos de los diseñadores más importantes de nuestra época y que han hecho? ¿Cómo uno puede convertirse en diseñador? Estas son algunas de las preguntas que exploraremos en este cuso introductorio de diseño. Con frecuencia se ha descrito el diseño como solución de problemas, el proceso de convertir las ideas en realidad o los medios, mediante los cuales podemos hacer que el mundo sea un lugar mejor. En este curso, hablaremos de una variedad de definiciones de diseño, la naturaleza del proceso de diseño y formas de práctica de diseño como el diseño de productos, diseño de experiencia de usuario, diseño gráfico, diseño interior y diseño de modas. Hablaremos de estos temas mediante los análisis de casos de varias cosas icónicas y cotidianas que nos rodean. Este curso le ayudará a entender tales conceptos como el pensamiento creativo, estrategia de diseño, investigación de diseño, y el proceso del diseño para que los aplique a su propio trabajo.

Greetings, everyone.
Today's presentation is about what designers do.
There's a broad range of design disciplines that designers get involved
with, and what we'll do is we won't be able to talk about all of them but
we'll talk about a few of these design disciplines.
That are available as undergraduate and graduate and PhD degrees at universities
are all to accepted professions in corporations and consultancies.
And we'll talk about a few of those today.
The ones we'll refer to are industrial design,
also sometimes referred to as product design.
Transportation design which includes the design of cycles,
motorcycles cars, scooters, etc.
We'll talk about graphic design,
also referred to as visual communication design sometimes.
Fashion design, sometimes also referred to as apparel design.
Architecture, creation of buildings.
Landscape architecture, which goes a little bit beyond architecture
into the spaces around the architecture.
Interior designs which gets inside the buildings, so what the interior space is.
We talk about the new discipline called interaction design which refers to
the engagement between people and things.
And finally we'll talk about another new discipline calls service design.
Which looks our old intangible services that go in hand in hand with
the physical artifacts that people design.
So let's talk about each one of them really briefly, and
then later on in this module we'll get into a lot more detail
about each of these design disciplines that you see here on the screen today.
As you think about the landscape in which we live.
As you look at the neighborhood surrounding the city,
the urban landscape in which you live, you see a whole range of material artifacts.
You see roads, you see bridges, you see buildings,
you see gardens, you see boats, you see signage.
All of these things are designed by people,
all of these things are engineered by people, all of those things are sole
marketed talk about these things makeup our material landscape.
These are things that designers spend good bit of time, planning, thinking about,
creating and then implementing and putting them out into the world.
And so as you look at any landscape around you, as you look at your environment,
you look at your neighborhood, you will see the impacts and
the results of design activity all around you.
Let's start with the first one.
Let's start with the one called Industrial design.
Industrial design is also referred to as product design and
essentially this is a discipline that refers to the creation
of a whole range of what one might call, consumer products.
And very often this could include everything from television sets to chairs
to cars to anything you can think of that can be referred to as a consumer product.
An example here is a chair designed by a company called Herman Miller
which is called the Aeron Chair.
And this is a chair that the company spent quite a bit of time thinking about
things like ergonomics, how comfortable is this chair?
Can we design it so that a person who might spend hours in this chair,
at least eight hours a day, can they be comfortable sitting in this chair?
So what you see here is an example of industrial design where the designer has
thought about things like comfort, things like safety, manufacturability,
aesthetics and all that gets factored into the creation of this product.
So industrial design essentially is the creation of,
essentially industrially manufactured goods,
hence the name industrial design, but also referred to as product design.
Within industrial design, there are few disciplines that have split off or
has specialized and one of those can be referred to as transportation design.
Essentially transportation design in most cases refers to the design of cars but
you could also refer to other vehicular designs, for example the design of
scooters, the design of motorcycles, the design of bicycles, railway systems so
all of that can be referred to as the sub-discipline or an offshoot or
a related discipline to industrial design that can be called transportation design.
Another discipline of design which is referred to as graphic design also,
in some schools and
in some universities referred to as visual communication design.
So while Industrial design can be referred to as the creation of physical things,
three dimensional physical objects,
they are from graphic design refers to the creation of two dimensional materials.
So for example, if you take a look at something like a magazine, or
a book, these are created by graphic designers.
What they do is they look at things like legibility.
They look at things like aesthetics.
They look at things like layout.
They look at things like typography, color, texture, materials.
All of those issues are addressed by graphic designers.
So traditionally, graphic designers focus on things like books, posters, magazine.
Things of that nature,
but now a days with all the digital media that we have around us.
Graphic designers also focus on things like the development of applications for
smartphones, or tablets, they focus on things like web site design.
So graphic design has now extended it's reach beyond
the printed world in to the world of digital media, as well.
So it's expanded what it has been doing.
Another principle of design, fashion design.
And as the term might suggest, this is the design very often of clothing.
So, apparel design, or the design of things like skirts, and pants, and shirts,
etc., Is a part of what fashion design does.
Fashion design goes beyond that.
It looks very carefully at technology as well.
The whole new area of wearable technology
where you can weave in technology into fabric.
All of that is a part of fashion design.
In some cases,
the design of shoes is also considered to be a part of fashion design but it also is
one of those products that bridges the gap between product design and fashion design.
So in a sense, fashion design or apparel design refers to the creation of
things that one would wear, artifacts that cover or clothe the human body.
Yet another discipline of design which can be referred to as one of the older
disciplines of design is that of architecture.
And architecture, in a sense, can be referred to as the design of buildings.
So you see in this case, the example of the Empire State Building.
This essentially is a large structure that houses people.
So in a sense what architects do, is they look at the site,
they look at the needs of people, they look at what needs to go into a building,
they look at infrastructure, they look at amenities and
all of that gets factored into the creation of these buildings.
Architecture can be classified in a sense into commercial architecture or
what you see in this image with Empire State building.
Or it could also be classified as a residential architecture.
And you have both forms of architecture.
Essentially the creation of buildings that go on to specific sites.
If you take architecture and
extend it beyond the footprint of the building, you get landscape architecture.
What landscape architects do, is they think of
clearly the space on which a building exists, but what happens around it.
What ecosystem Is surrounding this building.
What are the plants, the trees,
the habitats what is exactly is happening in that neighborhood around the building.
And the creation of things like gardens, the creation of things like this
landscapes is a part of what landscape architects do.
So they take in to account the specifics of the site but
they also very carefully take into account things like what is native
to that habitat, what is native to that ecosystem and
build that into the design of the landscape that surrounds the building.
While landscape architecture goes beyond the building,
goes outside of the building, interior design comes inside.
So what happens in case of interior design, is you think of
all the interiors spaces that are created by external walls of a building.
What you see in this photograph here is a bar.
And here, what you see in terms of design is creation of the furniture inside.
The lighting, the texture on the walls, the movement of people through it,
the flow of people through it, so
what interior design is think about is what level of comfort?
What level of psychological safety?
What level of ease of flow, materials, texture,
etc., can we think about while creating an interior space?
And this is an example of one form of interior space within a building.
So I mentioned earlier in the introduction that there are a few new forms of design.
And one of them has been referred to as interaction design.
And this has come into more significance as we have a whole range of new
digital artifacts that we use.
Things like smartphones, things like tablets, things like computers, and as we
access more mobile interfaces, websites, to get a whole range of our work done.
Keeping in mind that we interact with so many of these devices,
the world of interaction design, or
the discipline of interaction design, looks at how can we make this interaction,
or this engagement between us and these devices, a lot more easy,
a lot more user friendly, a lot more aesthetic, a lot more sustainable.
So that is the discipline of interaction design.
Now, interaction design doesn't only refer to the interaction between people and
these digital artifacts or these new electronic devices.
In a sense, it refers to everything that we interact with.
So, In one way you could think of interaction design
as a much broader term for all font of design,
because in a sense when we deal with something we are interacting with it.
So, interaction essentially refers to all engagement between us and
the material world that is outside of us.
But the discipline in a sense emphasizes and
focuses a bit more on these forms of devices that we use today.
So you see an example here.
This is a cell phone and the screen that you see on the cell phone, the design of
the buttons, the design of the icons that you would see on the screen.
The flow of tasks, the navigation across these screens,
all of those are some of the key things that interaction designers think about.
A subset of the discipline of interaction design is interface design
in which now it gets into the specifics of that screen.
What kinds of images appear on the screen?
What is the size of the type on the screen?
What icons can be designed?
How does information flow?
All that gets into issues of interface design.
And finally another new discipline of design is that of service design.
Very often when you have tangible products, when you have physical goods,
physical devices, consumer products, they often come hand in hand with a service.
For example if you take things like MP3 players.
MP3 players often require that you need some sort of a service,
you need some kind of a software that you need to connect with to
be able to download those songs onto your device.
If you think of something like, in case of a building, you can think of a hotel.
A hotel needs services.
You need somebody at the front desk to check you in,
you need someone to provide food.
So all these services, be it hospitality, be it a hospital, be it software.
If you go to a store, you have people who will help you buy things,
there are people who will help you service and repair things, so
all of those things that refer to the services and the support.
That is provided for buildings and
for devices, all of that refers to this new discipline of service design.
So, what we've done today is we have talked about a seas of design disciplines
from the smallest artifacts like products to the largest things like landscapes.
And some key things to keep in mind like what we've talked before is designers in
a sense think about three key things.
They think about the beauty.
They think about the utility and
they think about the sustainability of the things that they create.
So, whether it is a product or if it's a building or interior space.
These are some of the primary concerns that designers think about
when they create these artifacts.
And as we saw in the early photograph these forms of design are all around us.
The material landscape is full of products, full of buildings,
full of interior spaces, full of graphics and
all that is what design affects in our world today.
