Finding New Ways to Connect
Throughout my time at graduate school I was continuously looking for ways that design could be a solution for issues we encountered in the world. My thesis project is a culmination of that work. It combines research in psychology and design to try and discover how we can use design more effectively to connect with people and potentially create change
Combining principles from Moral Foundation Theory and Don Norman’s theory of Emotional Design, this work aims to discover ways we can use design and psychology to increase the efficacy of design.
