Nowadays food is often an industrially produced product like many other things, yet designers are often not involved in the development. In this breakout session, we will take a closer look at the defining factors of food experiences (spoiler: taste is only one of many) and how we can design for a good user experience with food products.
We will also look at food itself, supporting products as well as food customs and develop some concrete concepts and get inspired with the help of a food design card set.
