After finishing their two years, IUAV graduate students do an individual thesis project on a self-chosen theme, presented finally as a report document and a public lecture. This pages lists the Interaction Design thesis projects supervised by Gillian Crampton Smith and Philip Tabor. The designers work independently over about six months, with tutorials typically every two weeks. Emphasis is on originality, wit and rigour.
The tabs above allow you to search the projects by theme or year. To browse by theme, click the THEMES tab and use the sidebar to filter the summaries.
The project pages have links to download the reports (in Italian), and to CVs and personal websites.
