(Nokia) Open Studios

Check out Jan Chipchase's slide show of the Nokia Open Studios on future perfect.

The slides from the Nokia Open Studio design research method for engaging communities in shanty towns.

Despite what you might assume for a studio, the most valuable output of the Open Studio is not the designs, but in providing an alternative way for people to articulate their wants and needs - within the context of their community. The nuances of this are detailed in the accompanying paper as with these slides - co-authored with design studio colleague Younghee Jung.
