After finishing their two years, these Iuav graduate students do an individual thesis project on a self-chosen theme, presented finally as a report document and a public lecture. This page lists the Interaction Design thesis projects supervised by Gillian Crampton Smith, Davide Rocchesso, Raimonda Riccini and Philip Tabor in the Faculty of Design and Arts from 2006 to 2014. 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 (mostly in Italian), and personal websites. There are also profiles of the most recent graduates.
