Summative reflection
This course led me to break away from the fixed perception of objects and users, delving into deeper relationship thinking. It also provided a broader space for creativity and imagination to grow, allowing me to discover that when I think and create with my heart, objects and users can always form a deep emotional connection.
From time visualization, field research, to magnifying the advantages of objects and exploring the true value of design, these are the core takeaways I gained from the course. Concurrently, different courses further enriched and deepened this understanding:

The photography class
The craft workshop class
These multi-dimensional practices ultimately confirmed the design core that this course has taught me: ideas endow creativity with a soul, imagery conveys the warmth of design, and design is never merely about tangible creation; its essence lies in the empathetic power that enables products to form a deep connection with users. Design master Naoto Fukasawa stated: "Good design blends naturally into daily life and quietly fits people's inner feelings." This learning experience not only made me bolder in design imagination but also made me understand the importance of creating designs that are warm and resonate with people.
