This course provides knowledge about the interaction between people, products and environments at both the individual and societal level.
The course is based on exercises, literature studies, seminars and experiments in full scale in which we investigate in different ways, testing, and discuss the interaction between people, product and built environment.
In this course we look at humans as a whole in which physical, cognitive and emotional elements interact and affect each other. Different models are used to understand what creates well-being and how we interact with our surroundings.
We examine critically the way products and environments create opportunities and constraints for the way we move, learn and work.
