Consumer products
Article Abstract:
Consumer product designing in late 1990s is suffering from specialization and a crisis of interface design. Often a product's form rarely jells with its function. Better integration among industrial, interface, package, and graphic designers, working on the products from the outset, can give positive results. Plastic bowls, an ergonomic toilet seat, a vacuum cleaner, a camping lantern and award-winner FreePlay Clockwork Radio earn admiration as tangible products. The easy-to-use quality of Aquatica 67 camera, Apple's color printer and a computer headset are also praised.
