After a month of working in industrial design, here's what I have learned! I am so excited to share and show what I am creating but before that here are some of my key takeaways from this internship: 1. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁: It's not always what is taught in college💥 2. 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁: As an intern, you work like a full-timer instead of a student. 3. 𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁-𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: You are expected to do more in a day than your college ever expected in 10 days⏱️ 4. 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗰𝘀: You get to learn everything starting from the basics📕 5. 𝗥𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗱 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄: Turnaround time is faster than a pizza delivery🚚 6. 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝘂𝘁: You design 100 concepts and 2 passes through the selection (my ideas were never side-lined btw)🎖️ I'm so grateful for the awesome people at Bang Design who are helping me along the way. Special thanks to like-minded people around me Prashant Subhedar Vinay Rao and Shuubham Madan for challenging my skills and encouraging me throughout 🚀🚀 Watch out this space for the updates. I can't wait to show you the things I have created! #design #industrialdesign #internship #bangdesign

I had a chance to visit the Emerson College Los Angeles last week, and besides my uncontainable enthusiasm with another masterpiece of Architect Thom Mayne, I took a couple branding lessons. Emerson College is one of the top film schools in the country, and the LA campus was built as a satellite to accomodate 200 Senior studens of the Boston campus who come for a semester-long internship program in LaLaLand, the most important hub of the entertainment industry. With that in mind: - Investing in a state-of-the-art campus was a priority in order to offer the best possible experiences to the students, Emerson’s primary customers, offering innovative academic solutions while expanding interactive, social aspects of education. They make it clear that community is an essential value of their brand. - By choosing world acclaimed Architect Thom Mayne and his office Morphosis to lead the campus’ design, Emerson immediately puts its building on the Los Angeles’ landmarks map and creates a statement on innovation that will propel its brand for years to come. An incontestably impactful exposure. - By celebrating a design language that translates its brand values and vision, Emerson also created a secondary and powerful source of revenue by locating the facilities for movie, TV and commercial productions interested in framing its sculptural shapes on the screen, reason of my visit. Have you ever thought about how the values of your brand can be experienced by your customers in unique ways? When working on your business plan for the year, are you able to anticipate how your customers should feel in each touchpoint of their journey with your brand? Leave in the comments! This is what a Brand Architect does! :-) Thank you Tatiana Barzaghi for sharing your time, knowledge and courtesy, making my entire experience even better. #customerexperience #marketing #customerretention #branding #partnership #businessplanning #brandbuilding #brandmatchmaker #bmmmarketing

As someone who moved to the UK with no permanent adress here, the stress of sorting out my accommodation for the next year was even bigger. If I haven’t landed a placement or haven’t found an accommodation I would’ve had nowhere to go. The support with securing a placement was minimal for us, especially during COVID. And now that I have graduated the pressure is even higher. With the current state of the job market where it’s almost impossible to land a job as a fresh graduate it’s so hard to plan for the future. As a graduate who has worked in the industry the whole time I was at university, did so many extracurricular activities, volunteered where I could to gain as much experience as I could, it’s still extremely hard to secure a permanent job. Rejection after rejection, the uncertainty is unbearable. I’ve been told so many times how great addition I’d be to the team, how any team would be lucky to have me, I’ve even been told I’m over qualified and yet I wasn’t hired, and yet I still struggle to find a job, which makes it impossible for me to plan for the future and book an accommodation, which is forcing me to go back home until I find a job? I’m lucky enough to have won The Inclusive Fashion Award supported by Snag at the GFW which included a 6 month paid placement. This gives me time to gain even more experience but also look for a job. The whole point of this is to share my experience, to bring awareness the current state of the job market, the amount of pressure that’s been put on hardworking graduates. #currentjobmarket #fashion #fashionjobmarket #job #work #graduate

November vs June. There's something happening and it's a problem I learned about yesterday at New Designers following a load of conversations. Some product design courses are having very low numbers of students doing placements. Typically, without a placement, the students go on to do their final year and the degree is completed as a 3 year course. (I'm aware this may not be true for EVERY University). My view is that a 12 month placement makes you much better in your final year, and a better designer when it comes to trying to land a job. It's incredibly valuable. My bet would be that most people in industry would agree. So why is the 3 year completion with no placement apparently becoming more common? I was told students have to lock in their accommodation for the following year in November. So, when it gets to November there's the feeling of "Oh shit. I haven't landed a placement. I need to live somewhere. I'll commit to accommodation, not do a placement and do final year". This is happening in November but lots of postings for placements don't go out until Dec-Jan! At other Universities I spoke to, there was a complete all-in commitment to landing a placement. The mindset wasn't that it's a 3 year course and you CAN do a placement. The mindset was that you DO a placement and it would be odd if you didn't. With this, the "Oh shit" moment wasn't in November but in June - needing to desperately find somewhere to live. Either way, the students are put in a tight spot and the accommodation factor causes a lot of stress. And that's without the general feeling that there are fewer placements around. Thought it was worth sharing as I wasn't privy to this but was always curious when so many seemed to be doing 3 years. The other part of this is graduate expectations of walking into a product design job after 3 years and no internships when the competition of designers from the same graduating year have 12 months of experience. #industrialdesign #productdesign #designplacements

Dear Industrial Design Students, Internship season is going on. Job placement one will begin soon. And you will start applying to all the companies out there! On an average, we receive around 600+ applications for internship at any give time. And end up shortlisting about 20 and interview about 7 of you! That's our hiring funnel. Quite sure it's the same for other design companies as well! So how should your folio get you a foot through the door? 🔻 Here's a funnel that you can follow: 1. Start with your latest project, the one that has your best skills till date. It could be your graduation project. 2. Follow up with a complex project like an appliance or a gadget. Show us the guts, Zebra Analyses, Exploded Views etc. Be as visual as you can. 3. Any project, personal or college where you can demonstrate the understanding of a brand and how you have applied it to your design. 📁 Keep your folio T-shaped with enough variety and depth. 1. About 3-5 case studies with 5-7 slides per case. 2. Up to 5 good concepts per case and a funnel to the selected one. 3. Around 3 good renders/photos of the final product, including one in context! 📩Do that and you can be sure of getting a mail back from us! - I am Prashant Subhedar, Founder Director at Bang Design with 25 years of experience designing products that open new markets. #industrialdesign #designeducation #portfolio #internshipopportunity #designjobs P.S.: If you know any students who can benefit, please pass on this post or REPOST ♻️ to your network!

Exploring Human-Centered Design in the Built Environment 🌱 As I delve deeper into my Master's thesis, I'm focusing on the impact of human factors, perception, productivity, health, and well-being in the built environment. My aim is to investigate how architecture and interior design can enhance our daily experiences, improve productivity, and promote overall well-being through thoughtful, sustainable design. This work is not just limited to the theoretical realm—I'm eager to apply these insights practically and am considering applying for a PhD to further research this important field. If you have experience or a shared interest in topics like sustainable architecture, UX design in spatial environments, or human-centered design, I’d love to connect and collaborate! 💼 I am also looking for internship opportunities in Europe, particularly in Germany, where companies or organizations are working on similar projects. If you know any, I would be happy to explore opportunities to collaborate as an intern. 🤝 Feel free to reach out if you're working on similar projects or are passionate about exploring these areas together. Let’s create spaces that truly enhance human experience! #architecture #uxdesign #humancentereddesign #phdresearch #sustainabledesign #wellbeing #builtenvironment #internship #germany #europ

Bridging the Gap: Design Students vs. Industry Reality || 🧑💻 to 🪚 Every year, interns from top design schools join us, but there's a visible gap between their education and industry needs. It’s time for India's education system to become more relevant, especially in the furniture industry. Key Issues: 1. Curriculum: Heavy on theory, light on practical skills. 2. Tools: Outdated software in schools vs. current industry standards. 3. Project Scope: Academic projects lack real-world constraints. 4. Professional Skills: Need for better training in collaboration and business acumen. 5. Exposure: Limited real-world experience. Solutions: 1. Curriculum Revamp: Involve industry leaders to update and make education more practical. 2. Modern Tools: Train students on the latest industry-standard software. 3. Real-world Projects: Encourage live projects and internships to build practical skills. Let's work together to prepare the next generation of designers for the real world! 🌍 #furniture #industry #home #students #designers
