                          Professionalisation of the NGOs
                          The last decade, development work is undergoing
                          a new evolution where NGOs and civil society are
                          experiencing pressure to act more efficiently. The
                          professionalisation of the NGOs is considered to
                          be an important issue and innovation is becoming
                          an important aspect of NGOs vital for the
                          sustainability of NGOs.

                          inspired by C.K.Prahalad, it is addressing the
                          forgotten markets of Brazil. The company addresses

                          profits.

                          Tapping Local Knowledge and Networks
                          BoP-iD is specialized in dealing with the difficulties
                          BoP companies experience. These are related with
                          the networking and understanding of the local
                          situation. BoP-iD remains in very close contact with
                          NGOs and the local population and in this way, it
                          obtains high quality, high valued information for a

                This assignment was given by the company
                “Mio”. A GPS device for runners had to be
                designed. Customer’s research revealed that
                the main demands for runners were wearability,
                easy access to specific information while
                running and incensitives to keep the runner
                motivated to continue running.

Media Player Skin


                In order to enhance our Photoshop and
                illustrator skills, we had to create a mood
                board about a science fiction movie, in my
                case “Solaris”, starting from screenshots and
                using Photoshop. The goal of this exercise
                was getting acquainted with the basics of

Form Exercises
                One of the first assigments were form exercises.
                On this page, two examples are shown where
                the forms had to result in a product based on
                the “form follows function” principle.
                The example on the right shows how a random
                organic form can result in product. In this case a
                machine that makes x-rays photos of a patient’s
                teeth .
Design Skills




                The example shown below shows a combination
                of an animal with a product. In this case the
                mix between an hummingbird and an electric
                ear thermometer. The Integration of buttons,
                screams grips and edges gives these shapes the
                product-like look.

CAD Modelling & Rendering

                A part of our training consisted out of the use            forms, making valid solids, designing details,
                of CAD programs as “Rhinoceros” and “Solid                 and to make realistic renders. The renders are
                Works”. As for my end assignment for the                   made with Flamingo.
                “Rhino” courses, I modelled and rendered a
                “Paul reed smith soapbar” guitar. The goal of

  • 6. Sustainable Design for the Emerging Markets “Sustainable Design for the Emerging Markets” is my graduation project in the field of Design Research and Management Research, realized in the academic year 2009- 2010. Dr. Chris Baelus and David Peck from Tu Delft acted as mentors. Target group: Multinationals Focus on New “Emerging” Markets. The western markets are saturated and more Between 2 and 8 more multinationals focus on big emerging and dollars PPP Disposable income markets as India, China and Brazil to realize More productshigher growth. It concerns a market of 2.7 Obtaining the development goals while making profits billion persons whose income lays between 2 Big Eco impact and 8 dollars PPP. Multinationals’ interests The peculiarities still apply The Road to Radical and Sustainable Innovation? The market income curve Because of Ecological issues, a new approach is needed to fulfill the needs of these markets in an Ecological sustainable way. Following the path of the emerged markets isn’t opportune and designing for the emerging markets forces companies to question the existing paradigms. The goal of this project was to map how the specific characteristics of designing for the 10 biggest emerging markets emerging markets offers opportunities and The 10 biggest emerging markets threats to design more Eco-friendly products.
  • 7. Sustainable Design for the Emerging Markets Research Method This project is based on a triangle structure, Research and Management where, started from abstract terms about designing for the emerging markets and Eco design, the relation was sought with more practical guidelines. A list with 53 business plan principles for the emerging markets was created and these guidelines were compared with the guidelines of the LiDS strategies. These are 8 strategies that measure the Ecological sustainability over the whole life cycle of a product or service. This theoretical model was tested on some cases. The research methods used in this project are in depth interviews, literature study and desk research. Methodology: The relation between ecological, social and economical sustainability Outcome ? The study resulted in a list of 53 concrete business plan principles, a matrix which shows the correlation between these 53 principles and their Eco impact and the clustering of the most important business plan principles. Furthermore the theoretical model was tested on 3 cases.

  • 9. Social Business Concept: BoP-iD Product Development for the Slums BoP-iD is a business concept of a limited liability company (ltda.) in Rio de Janeiro, developed in Research and Management combination with my master thesis project. BoP-iD is situated in the consultancy sector and, BoP-iD: Think globally ... Act locally inspired by C.K.Prahalad, it is addressing the forgotten markets of Brazil. The company addresses Small and Medium Enterprises to encourage them Gi to design for the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP). Rio BoP-iD helps to create free competitive markets in the favelas and to eradicate poverty while making profits. Tapping Local Knowledge and Networks BoP-iD is specialized in dealing with the difficulties BoP companies experience. These are related with the networking and understanding of the local situation. BoP-iD remains in very close contact with NGOs and the local population and in this way, it obtains high quality, high valued information for a relatively low cost, resulting in relatively high profits. A Unique Position within a New Market The biggest advantage of BoP-iD is that it is addressing companies who want to design for emerging market, this is an innovative idea in a niche market that is caracterized as having few competitors and hard to enter. This offers BoP- iD exclusive access to essential information and networks needed to exploit these markets.

  • 15. Hospital + : The New Hospital Experience Project Presentation The hospital + project was a project together with 4 other master students. It was a cooperation with Philips, Boonen and the artesis superior school and the task was to implement “hospitality” in health care centers. The skills evaluated in this project were design research, conceptual and futuristic thinking, team work, usability studies, project and budget Design Skills planning and presentation skills. This project was supported by an interdisciplinary team of Economics, sociologists, engineers, people involved with health care and designers . Hospital +: Share Time, Save Life Because of demographic an Economical issues, Public hospitals in europe will need to cut costs if they want to remain economically viable. But At the same time, there can’t be compromised on quality.Thus hospitals try to shorten the stay of their patients as much as possible in order to cut costs. This is a paradox since an increased amount of people need time to rest. The “Hospital+” bed is a sustainable concept that deals with these issues, it offers a high technological solution which allows patients to 35 retreat in a personal cocoon to revitalize their mind and body and to overcome their illness Solid works render of the final result of the bed. with friends.
