Development and innovation of new designs for ship bridges on modern offshore vessels is a considerable challenge for engineering and design professions. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how innovations in ship bridge design may benefit from design competency in the fields of e.g. industrial and interaction design... Read »

In this paper we discuss our experiences with doing field studies as part of the design process when developing a new ship’s bridge design. A preliminary observation in our work is that the individual designer benefits greatly from having been at sea, and that the sharing of the insight from the individual who has done field studies to the rest of the design team can be challenging...
