------------------------------Introduction--------------------------------------INNOVATION AND DESIGN

Nowadays, the governments of many developed countries are undertaking a
constant promotion of design as an industrial development policy extending its field
of action and establishing true multidisciplinary collaborations that propose solutions
to the greatest diversity of organizations. In this sense, design has become an
effective tool for promoting businesses of which success lies in the innovation of the
product themselves.
INSPIRATION/ identity
OUR journey in this world must begin at Inspiration. The word inspiration is derived
from the Latin verb inspirareto breathe intoas in the action of gods breathing life
into their craetions, a scene found in creation myths worldwide.
INTRODUCTION
Inspiration can take countless guises and exist in many places. A poets inspiration
may also serve to inspire a dancer, painter, sculptor or designer. No matter what
form is takes, inspiration is an energy that drives people to be creative and infuses
their creations with life.
As students begin to work on their projects, they should have some idea of
where they are going. Their inspiration will take form based on the needs of the
project and the styles and energy with which they would like to infuse their
projects.
