Co-create with Daily Goods Design Labs: Wearable Tech, MakerWear, and future KitCars at MakerFestival 2018
Join Daily Goods Design Labs for design and co-creation events on wearables, devices and future cars, July 7-8 at Maker Festival Toronto (Toronto Reference Library).
DGDL will be popping up at The Sandbox an exciting new co-create space on the 2nd Floor. From here, throughout the weekend, we will be demonstrating some of our works-in-progress including the create-your-own future car kits and MakerWear garments (designed with makers, designers and innovators in mind). Co-creating with us is free, but spaces are limited.
Budding designers can also ‘pre-book’ a place on our Make, Create and Innovate: Devices and Wearables workshop, tickets $10-15 from Eventbrite, to learn about designing future devices and wearables.
Stay tuned to our Twitter, @dgdesignlabs for times and live info.
We look forward to meeting you at the following…
Saturday, 7th July 2018
2:15 - 3:15pm
Make, Create and Innovate Devices and Wearables with Daily Goods Design LABS (DGDL) at the Maker Festival, pre-book tickets here.
In this workshop you will understand the basics of the design process and simple prototyping techniques used to create future devices and wearables. You will choose from a variety of form factors (shapes and sizes); think about what features you'd like your device or wearable to have based on how you communicate; entertain and plan out the things you do on a daily basis. Come build a paper and/or cardboard prototype and learn how to start the design process with us!
Learn more and see one of our most recent design workshops at the Ontario Science Centre.
Saturday & Sunday, July 7- 8th, Time TBD
Create your own future car, Sandbox drop-in and demonstration
See our most recent works in progress, and let us know what you think about:
Our programmable KITCar inspired by future cars such as the DeLorean
