ActiveWin.com: "Thirteen Years of Innovative Design", Interview with Ken Fry, Design Group Director: Microsoft Hardware | |
|
||
| Time: 01:29 EST/06:29 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
Recently, ActiveWin.com had the opportunity to visit and tour the Microsoft Industrial Design Studio courtesy of Ken Fry, Design Group Director of Microsoft Hardware. During the visit, we were able to discuss the ingenuity and creativity behind the hardware group which enabled Microsoft Hardware to provide to current day "thirteen years of innovative design." ActiveWin.com: Tell us more about the recent new color, style/pattern introductions. Ken Fry: The color stuff has been quite a revolution both within Microsoft and the design industry as a whole. Lately, if you take a look at any recent consumer products you'll see they have more "personality" from a color and design standpoint. The same goes for the products we are designing. As technology products become more mainstream, people expect these things to have more personality and to reflect their personality in better ways. We continue to do that by providing different color options and you will see more from us in this regard in the future. | ||
