Instead of answering why research is important, let’s find out what research brings to the table in the design process. The importance of research is not a question. The moment we give thought to a design challenge is the moment design research begins. By thinking, we are “going about seeking” interesting materials in the head, which is a form of research by definition.

Hello my name is Tracy, I would like to to get your opinion on what should I bring to an interview and what should I leave behind? I am senior Industrial Design student at SCAD.

Hi Tracy!

I think is always good to be creative in order to make a difference between yourself and the rest of applicants. Ideally, you look for a reason to be remembered by the person who interviewed you, but generically, certain documents end up being more of a ‘problem’ in the studio space that being helpful.
