Abstract

This paper summarises some of the content and conclusions of a new book which discusses the innovation, design and evolution of six consumer products – bicycles, washing machines, vacuum cleaners, electric lamps, television and mobile (cell) phones – from their original inventions to the present. It discusses common patterns of innovation, how environmental concerns and legislation have influenced design, and some of the effects these products have had on the environment and society. The paper also uses lessons from the successes and failures of examples of these products to draw out guidelines for designers, engineers, marketers, managers and educators on how to design successful new products and to design for the environment. It concludes with trends and sustainability challenges for future consumer product design and innovation.
消费品设计与创新:过去、现在和未来
本文总结了一本新书的一些内容和结论,这本书讨论了六种消费产品的创新、设计和演变——自行车、洗衣机、吸尘器、电灯、电视和移动(手机)电话——从最初的发明到现在。它讨论了创新的常见模式,环境问题和立法如何影响设计,以及这些产品对环境和社会的一些影响。本文还从这些产品的成功和失败的例子中吸取教训,为设计师、工程师、营销人员、管理人员和教育工作者提供了如何设计成功的新产品和为环境设计的指导方针。它总结了未来消费产品设计和创新的趋势和可持续性挑战。
