Difference between Product Design and Industrial Design

nice definition, yo.

i agree with your assessment of cav’s definition, too. he’s not wrong, per se, but some items i’ve desgined have been very, very small runs of product or even one-offs as a customized customer solution.

generally, people rspond to “industrial design”, to me, as a building designer, architect, or process engineer. if i tell them “product design”, they associate it with engineering or inventing. “furniture design”, i’m associated with Norm or whatever his name is on that PBS show “the new yankee workshop” :unamused:
