Gracias por compartir este artículo María. Estudié diseño industrial en la EAP y lo discutido en el conversatorio refleja mi experiencia. Estos son otros puntos que también considero importantes:

- En Puerto Rico se desconoce qué es, qué hace y qué beneficios aporta un diseñador industrial en el desarrollo de un producto.

-Se presta más atención al diseño de productos que tienen valor primordialmente estético, artístico y decorativo (mobiliario, accesorios decorativos, iluminación, etc.) y no se exploran tanto aquellos productos con alto valor funcional, que intentan resolver problemas existente y mejorar la experiencia de los usuarios.

-Necesitamos tener una visión del diseñador como parte de un equipo multidisciplinario de trabajo en donde hay ingenieros, fabricantes, quality control, compradores, exportadores/importadores, etc.
