Manufacturer to Consumer, Adam Paterson
I’m a Scottish-born engineer/designer with a passion for experimentation, failure, inspiration and discovery.
I enjoy finding simple solutions to complex problems, fixing things that don’t work and never settling for mediocrity.
My project looks at our global marketplace and our current approach to transporting products from the manufacturer to the consumer. Millions of products are sent across the world every hour of every day. How can design be used to remove, reduce or facilitate these journeys?
