Yes, there are a lot of people who think about appliance design. If you're looking to get hired, IDEO immediately comes to mind ( http://www.ideo.com/ideo.asp). Additionally, there is a LOT of literature about object design. Donald Norman's books are a good place to start, as is Christopher Alexander's large body of work (especially *Notes on the Synthesis of Form* and *A Pattern Language*). Their subject matter doesn't always touch specifically on appliances, but it's general enough to be applicable. Lots of teapot references, too. :) ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)! To post to this list .......
