Scope of the Workshop

 Man became a designer as soon as he began to modify the form of natural objects. In designing any product, the following requirements namely Technical requirements, Ergonomic requirement and Aesthetic requirement are inevitably inter linked in one way or another. Certain characteristics such as shape and size influence all requirements and others may appear to be relatively independent. A Designer should consider and implement the above requirements to become successfully.  Application of Industrial design aspects are very much essential while designing and manufacturing both domestic and industrial products to compete in the present scenario of global market. The performance, versatility, appearance and cost are very much important for any product to obtain excellence in the global market.

 This workshop provided information to designers, engineers, marketing executives, academicians, research scholars and students about the concepts of Industrial Design and its implementation to get success in their field.
