“Prototyping is problem solving. It’s a culture and a language. You can prototype just about anything—a  new product or service, or a special promotion. What counts is moving the ball forward, achieving some  part of your goal. Not wasting time.”

Tom Kelley, general manager IDEO Prototyping is the shorthand of design! Industrial Design Center I Howest is organizing a 5 day hands-on  training week for graduates and those about to graduate who have a passion for creation, co-creation  and materialization of ideas.
