Description
Our paper shows the effects of different industrial design methods on 91 product concepts that have been developed during six design cases executed from 2005 until 2010 by students of Industrial Design Engineering in the Netherlands. It is shown that the application of 9 differently selected industrial design methods can yield innovative products with sustainable energy technologies that could be technically feasible. By an evaluation of the appreciation of the resulting product concepts it is found that the following three methods apparently are most beneficial: platform-driven product development, TRIZ and Design&Styling.
