Earlier in October, students participated in Core77’s 1 Hour Design Challenge: The Future of Digital Reading for Jason Santa Maria’s Communicating Design class. Based on Portigal Consulting’s Reading Ahead initiative, students had the opportunity to digitally interpret the act of reading through e-book devices, social mediums, and ecosystems. Winner for the challenge, Hot Studio, was announced today, with MFA Interaction Design students Stephanie Aaron, Kristin Graefe, and Eric St. Onge swooping the Notable with their PaperBack device. Congrats to all student participants!
