Tive a sensação de estar faltando alguma coisa, eu esperava um pouquinho mais. Outros cursos com o mesmo propósito aqui nessa plataforma, me pareceu muito mais completo mesmo tendo o o pouco tempo semelhante. Infelizmente!

The course didn't offer many new insights to me as an industrial designer, but I guess it is fine for people who would like to learn the basics. I recommend it for first and second year design students and people who are interested in design in general.
For me, I would have liked to see more actual methodologies and a deep dive into studios like formafantasma and their way of working. We barely scratched the surface here.
