Paul Priestman on the nature of product design
Entrenching Itself on the International Design Calendar/Recorded 2006
A close reading, kept within reach.
Paul Priestman takes product design as a lens on the larger question the festival keeps returning to: what design owes to the people and places it works among. The talk moves from specific projects toward a broader argument about practice.
Recorded in United Kingdom in 2006, the conversation is grounded in Paul's own working method — the compromises, the constraints, and the moments where the work taught them something they didn't expect.
The closing turn is characteristic of the archive: less a conclusion than a provocation, handed to the audience to carry into their own disciplines.
From the very small to the very large. Paul Priestman talks about product design, multiples and the importance of thinking ahead.
