Designing to solve a problem for someone.


Reflection
A look into the art of designing footwear (especially shoes) through the eyes of Tinker Hatfield. Tinker's vision of designing for the future, adding meaning and capturing stories is imbibed in all his creations. His story sheds light on the importance of studying the subject and its needs (i.e. the users feet in the realm of footwear design).
