This catalogue presents a snapshot of each Industrial Design Honours student’s final design project, completed as part of the Capstone studio course in the Bachelor of Industrial Design (Hons) at UNSW.

Each project begins with a period of discovery research in the first part of the year. This allows students to build a deep understanding of their chosen topic and uncover insights that can lead to meaningful design opportunities. These opportunities are then translated into a design brief and developed through an iterative design process. Early concept sketches, user experience mock-up and sketch models help explore creative possibilities and test initial ideas, which then evolve into a refined design proposal that balances technical and functional requirements with user needs and experience. The final stage focuses on detailed refinement, documentation, and preparation of the design for manufacture and presentation.

On behalf of my colleagues, I would like to thank the students for their consistent effort, dedication, and professionalism throughout the year. We also extend our thanks to the families and friends who have supported them on this journey.
