Factors of Design. Time and Money. 2

Description

Working on schedule and within a budget is crucial in the fast-paced world of design, where success often depends on timing and products must be priced affordably. This program shows how the factors of time and money affect the design process. Case studies for the Apple iPad wall-mount and a go-kart sticker manufacturer highlight cost issues in the design process, including productivity, efficiency, and time management. Specific cost break-downs are illustrated. We also see how manufacturing, distribution, packaging, and pricing strategies all impact the design process. Discussions of the cradle-to-grave product life-cycle help viewers grasp the big-picture thinking that professional designers must embrace.
