Colombo Design Market talk on mass production

As a way to introduce some of the requirements for mass production design, and also to raise awareness about how bonkers it is to have all this STUFF manufactured and shipped around the planet, Lee did a workshop at the Colombo Design Market to give an overview. He also did a Tear Down of an apparently simple product, in this case an external hard disk unit, to see how it is designed, what materials it’s made from and also why the designers would have chosen those manufacturing techniques and materials for the product.
