HYBRID INTERPHASES

This course, taught at Pratt, challenges students to reimagine the future of user experiences by exploring the convergence of physical products and digital interfaces. Over 15 sessions, we frame design opportunities where technology can elevate everyday interactions. Students identify meaningful problems, conduct user research, map journeys, and prototype holistic solutions—merging tangible objects with digital layers. We don’t just design products; we shape experiences that anticipate where the world is heading. The outcomes have consistently been innovative, provocative, and deeply inspiring.
