About

Simon Curlis is a lecturer in Industrial Design with an abiding interest in Mobility as a sustainable practice with intelligent vehicles and assistive technology focus. Simon’s research considers design innovations for mobility service provision, reinventing systems of mobility, addressing wicked problems and speculating on emerging technology with future scenarios.

Simon is interested in supervising projects that address new vehicle typologies and aesthetics (beyond cars) and propose alternative uses and applications for mobility/transportation products and emerging production and service-systems approaches to transportation futures.

Current Research Activities

Simon is undertaking a Phd that addresses Intelligent Assistive Technologies in Mobility. This is a project that has  user focus and universal design applications. Simon is a CAD geek that works with digital sketching, sculpting and fabrication and is working with code generated forms and treatments of products.
