RESEARCH

Design Factory brings together researchers from different disciplines to explore design, development, and innovation from a wide variety of disciplinary perspectives. The in-house researchers represent a variety of fields: cognitive and work psychology, educational sciences, mechanical engineering, management, industrial design etc. All of us work in developing the ADF platform and its practices further in order to both effectively translate research results into practice and ensure the relevance of theoretical endeavors.

    How accurately can you understand a person?

    admin 20/10/2021
    As a designer, how well are you really able to understand users when you are empathizing with them? Our research shows, some factors may increase or decrease your empathic understanding. Do you know what they are and how do they influence your understanding accuracy? Users are not always thinking about the product during an interview. Do you know what are they thinking about?

    From waste streams to raw materials

    admin 18/05/2021
    You may have heard of this equation: growing populations with higher demands and incomes require more natural resources. This has led us to the situation where human-made things, such as consumables, cars, and infrastructure, now exceed all living species’ weight on Earth.
