Real World Implications

“I enjoyed working on this project because it is actually helping people. Our ideas have a chance to affect a solution." --Professor Bjarki Hallgrimsson

In the Canadian capital of Ottawa, a group of industrial designs students at Carleton University, home to an IDSA Student Chapter, is getting a firsthand lesson in helping the public. Almost four dozen sophomores in the School of Industrial Design have crafted scale models of public washrooms to meet an urgent need in the city as part of a grassroots GottaGo! campaign.
