FROM THE JUDGES
Cambridge Consultants awards our “Excellence in Breaktrough Design” Award to Alice McCutcheon for her patch pump design Corti.
We were particularly impressed by the depth of the usability research and critical thinking that went into the creation of Corti.
The design is sophisticated and well executed, we could clearly see the effort put in to make this a plausible solution to the project brief. Although the final design is simple and clean, the attention to detail is outstanding, well done!
