Pathway to Product Design

A Dialog withEmily Tang, Co-founder of Studio Doozy

Featuring PolyU Product Design students

While we use thousands of amazing products in everyday life, have you ever thought of where these things that give us so much convenience and useful functions came from? Product Design is not just about creating beautiful things. It is a field of knowledge backed by numerous researches, user tests, scientific calculations, engineering, aesthetic directions, sustainability and materials technologies put together by teams of professionals behind.

Emily Tang is currently developing healthcare and lifestyle-related products and services to serve the local and global healthcare community. She is the Co-Founder of Studio Doozy, a healthcare design technology firm that strives to redesign aging. They work with a bottom-up approach and engage the end-users throughout their design process. She graduated from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University School of Design with an Industrial and Product Design bachelor’s degree and her project ‘Libue’, a toilet for Parkinson’s disease patients and their families was a James Dyson Award Hong Kong winner.

通往產品設計的道路

與設計師、Studio Doozy創辦人鄧曉瑩對話

同場更有產品設計學生分享

你有想過我們每一日都在使用的各大大小小、不同類似的產品，為我們帶來不同功能和方便，是怎樣設計出來的嗎﹖產品設計世界不單是製作美麗的事物，更是一門包羅萬有的高深學問——由無數研究、用戶調查、科學計算、工程技術，以至美術指導、可持續發展理念、物料科技等等；而最重要的是背後負責每個程序的專業團隊。

鄧曉瑩(Emily)畢業於香港理工大學設計學院工業及產品設計文學士課程，乃StudioDoozy的聯合創辦人，致力發展醫療及生活相關的產品與服務，為本地以至全球社群服務。其公司主要重塑老化人口的生活模式及提升質素，由下而上地與用家一起設計最適合需要的產品。Emily的大學畢業作品「Libue」為她帶來不少獎項及媒體注視，其中包括James Dyson Award香港冠軍。
