Difference between Product Design and Industrial Design

Actually you just made the case for Industrial to be a bad fit. Not all designs are industrially mass produced. The ID process can be applied to many things, from one off furniture, to injection molded shavers, to whatever:

This is why we are evolving to product:

product::

  1. a thing produced by labor: products of farm and factory; the product of his thought.
  2. a person or thing produced by or resulting from a process, as a natural, social, or historical one; result: He is a product of his time.
  3. the totality of goods or services that a company makes available; output: a decrease in product during the past year.
