The document summarizes a student's experience at an INC 281 Multidisciplinary Workshop. In the morning, the student listened to presentations from different companies about their concepts that combined Thai and Western culture, Thai beliefs, or focused on recycling. In the afternoon, the student's group was assigned to the COREKON company booth at the BOI Fair, but decided to look at other booths showcasing new technologies from companies like Nissan, Canon, and Toshiba. The student struggled to understand products from a design perspective and balance consumer demands.

1. INC 281 Multidisciplinary Workshop
On Thursday 12th January 2012.In the morning, I listened about philosophy, hope and
concept each company which they are faculty of Architecture, department industrial
design. Example, Some company has concept about culture which combines between
Thai and Western. Some company has concept about Thai people of belief. Another
company has concept about recycle anything from flood problem or product which
strong, durable.
In the afternoon, Teacher assigned students to see BOI Fair at Impact Arena. I’m in
COREKON Company. My group has concept about belief, but BOI Fair is technology
and innovative for future. So, we decide to see every things if I can.
At Impact Arena have many companies which exhibit in BOI Fair such as Nissan (eco
car), Canon (camera), Toshiba (fastest the elevator but it is a replica, microwave, 3D
television), Red Bull, PPT group, Panasonic (battery), SCG, Michelin (motor driven a
car, use electric instead of fuel and engine) and another company. I attempt to think 2
visions (working and design) about product. Sometime, it hard to understand in design
for response demand of consumer which consider in many parts until have conclusion.
