DCA discussion

DCA

Today I met with Joe Miller and Laimis Narsutis from DCA Design International Ltd. DCA is know for working with brands such as Airwick, Scholl, Htachi trains and Sanofi. Specifically it is highly interesting knowing they developed the leading award winning designs of the Sanofi Allstar insulin pen.

After having a discussion with Joe and Laimis I took one key insight away : ‘Think about the data that is being communicated and how it is translated to the user- not just the functionality and technological needs of the devices- medical experts in the industry spend years developing new innovative medical products’

Discussion- General Practitioner

Dr James Heath

I organised a meeting with Dr James Heath for a very brief preliminary discussion about diabetes in general, how patients come to know about it and the process of discovering diagnosis.

From this discussion I was provided the contact details of Diabetes specialists at the RVI.

The Beginning

I have just completed my RSA project this year of which I found a very enjoyable project and outcome from a marketing perspective. I am now about to commence on my Final Year Major Project. The project is split into 3 parts beginning with the Exploration period. Followed by the design development and Critical Justification along the way to support a final outcome to be displayed at New Designers.
