"Low-key and thoughtful, IDEO founder David Kelley seems the
antithesis of the "design star" -- and indeed, he says that product
design, within the past two decades, has become much less about the
design and more about the user who'll be experiencing it. In this
classic 2002 talk, he shares some video of products coming out of
IDEO, including Prada's famous high-tech dressing rooms, "Dilbert's
ultimate cubicle," and a gotta-have-it gadget called Spyfish. He
finishes by discussing a project he's passionate about: ApproTEC --
now called KickStart -- offering designs that give Kenyans the means
to end poverty."
