Smart Design was born. In the beginning, it was a hard sell—not the designs themselves, but the idea that the needs of individual people should be involved in the development of design. Formosa was interested in “how design can affect our quality of life, improve performance, and affect behaviour.” The original Smart Design team “pulled together techniques inbiomechanics and cognitive psychology,” recalls Formosa. “This was a type of an approach that no other design group was undertaking in the U.S. at the time, so it was an early test of our beliefs about what and where design should be.” Smart Design was successful throughout the 1980s, but Formosa admits that it was an uphill battle to convince clients that design was, indeed, for everyone.
