          This project was arranged in cooperation with a firm of
        
        
          undertakers. Students worked in small groups and were
        
        
          asked to deliver a short, visually-based report document-
        
        
          ing the process; their final product solutions; a full-scale
        
        
          physical model; and at least one item of decorative materi-
        
        
          als such as candlestick, flower holder or vase. The project
        
        
          was evaluated on an understanding and interpretation of
        
        
          the tasks given from the undertaker; a variety of ideas and
        
        
          creativity; aesthetics and expression; professionalism and
        
        
          presentation.

          Three different projects explored four different production
        
        
          methods including: injection molding, blow molding, alu-
        
        
          minum extrusion and direct digital manufacturing (DDM),
        
        
          using 3D printers for end productions. The use of data feeds
        
        
          and tangible interactions were introduced as method and
        
        
          tools when working with DDM. The picture shows a pro-
        
        
          posed bottle design for the iconic Norwegian beverage, Solo,
        
        
          made with a 3D printer.
