Alex Bandazian
From Idea to Product: Industrial Design
Thursday October 1, 6:30-8:30pm
Have you ever wondered why the handle on your vegetable peeler fits so perfectly in your hand? Or why the interface on your phone feels so intuitive (or doesn’t)? Or for that matter, why are those stupid plastic blister packages are so impossible to open? From Charles and Ray Eames, to Jonny Ives; the influence of Industrial Design is all around you.
About Alex Bandazian
I am a professional product designer and an avid maker living in Somerville, with degrees in both Industrial Design (Mass Art) and English (Wheaton College). Before beginning my career in design, I worked as a jeweler’s assistant, and a blacksmith and Historic Trades Artisan for the living history museum Plimoth Plantation. I love to build things, solve complex problems and work with multidisciplinary teams; and I am inspired by entrepreneurship, craft, design as a force for global change and the Wu-Tang Clan.
