As part of the first-year course ” Specialized Project I: User-Centered Design,” students gained an overview of the design process and its stages through the development of a single product. Throughout the semester, they conducted background research, learned to sketch and draft ideas, practiced prototyping, and worked with various machines. The course resulted in the creation of games and toys that foster children’s development, including uniquely designed building blocks, an assemblable birdhouse, and a puzzle game introducing the feeding habits of animals and birds.
The user-centered design project features works by Annabel Seen, Emmeliine Kalvik, Grete Sallo, Trine Ots, Evelin Lidmets, Pille-Riin Reigo, Marta Frolova, and Iris Viru.
The students were guided by Pallas furniture department lecturers Kristina Allik, Ingemar Maasikmäe, and Teet Papson.
Everyone is welcome to explore the games created by Pallas furniture design and restoration students at Gallery Pallas until March 15.
