I, along with two department friends, did a summer internship at Experiential Design Lab in the month of May. Experiential Design Lab is an interaction design consultancy based in New Delhi (India), Dubai (U.A.E.) and Rome (Italy). They specialize in turnkey solutions. The company has a combined experience of over 18 years in the world of interactive experiences and has successfully implemented projects in the realms of retail, events, exhibitions, museums, products and services.

The internship involved learning in detail the design methodology and the design development process following the double diamond method of discover, define, develop and deliver. As a result of participating in a project involving designing an experience for an upcoming restaurant with a unique concept, got first hand experience of conducting user research and analysis, desktop research, on site explorations and client interviews. Learnt how to analyze the insights to define the meta project with short term, long term, negotiable, non negotiable goals and constraints. Prepared experience flows, finalised on a solution and arrived at the physical prototyping stage.
Apart from this, was exposed to the various practices of physical computing from the ongoing projects and completed projects of the lab.
