Abstract
In August 2013 the Department of Industrial Design in FADA invited five past alumni to exhibit the process of their design thinking in commercial design projects and the results thereof. The exhibition, which I curated, was envisaged as celebrating the process of creativity and design asopposed to offering a display of decontextualized design objects on pedestals. The participating designers, chosen because of their active involvement in the Department of Industrial Design over the last five years as well as their range of professional disciplinary pathways, were Jonathan Fundudis (BTech ID) and David Holgreaves (BTech ID) of Snapp Design (www.snappdesign.com); Peter Harrison (BTech ID) of the freelance design firm called Harrison Design cc (www.harrisondesigns.co.za); and the collaborative team of Trevor Hollard (BTech ID) and RowanMardghum (BTech ID) of Maeker Products Pty Ltd (http://maeker.wozaonline.co.za) and amoq furniture (www.amoq.co.za) respectively.
