We're excited to have Nick Harewood and team from Kainos Design with us this week running a weeklong design project with our second and final year students on #SmartCities

Today has been a lot of fun working with the students but also having fantastic Kainos colleagues give their time to share experience and insights. Can't wait to see the designs at the end of the week!

We definitely had logbook envy! Thanks for your time and wisdom Duncan Millar

We had a great team from Kainos Design & Kainos with us yesterday, sharing their insights & experience with our students. We're looking forward to the hearing the students' design ideas on Friday. Marc Nevin Nick Harewood

Congratulations to all of our Aston Design #designweek winners who designed future products incorporating sensor data collected from smart lampposts across a #SmartCity. Thanks to Kainos Design and Telensa for such an interesting brief and a great start to the term.

I didn't realise it was the International Day of Older Persons today, but that fits with the empathy, inclusion and user centred design workshop that we have been running today. Becky @Aston_EAS

Our second year Aston Design and Mech Eng students had fun taking part in an empathy workshop yesterday. Learning how to design for those with differing abilities. @Aston_EAS

An interesting opportunity for any graduating Product Designers...
