Innovation Design Engineering (MA/MSc)

Signage for IDE exhibition at RCA2025.

We are proud to showcase the work of the graduating 2025 cohort from the Innovation Design Engineering (IDE) Programme, a two-year, double Masters programme run jointly by the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London. IDE is about creating a new type of innovator, one who will be a global leader in the integration of design, engineering, science and enterprise, and distinctively positioned to tackle the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous challenges society and the planet face.

The image is a 3D-rendered scene created in Lumion, showing a building raised on stilts or columns during heavy rain. The structure appears to be constructed using bamboo, with a green, grassy landscape in the background. Water is visibly accumulating under the building, partially submerging the columns, indicating potential flooding. Trees are seen in the distance, and the sky is overcast, contributing to the rainy atmosphere. Prerna Singh

A polished lifestyle photograph titled “Kinemo: Unlock Your Movement.” The right half shows an older man in a home living room doing a deep squat on a yoga mat; a transparent skeletal overlay traces his joints and limbs in white lines. On the left, a widescreen TV on a low wooden cabinet displays the Kinemo interface—dual skeletal views of the squat, a circular gauge reading “78°,” and session stats. A small motion‑capture camera on a tripod stands behind the TV. Soft natural light filters through a window, and modern speakers flank the scene, conveying an inviting, tech‑enabled home exercise environment. Jérémie Kofman

A light blue background with bold black text on the left reading: “CICADA Imagine the world is your instrument. Cicada turns your surroundings into expressive and playable sound using generative AI.”** Below the text are the logos of the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London. On the right side of the image is a photo of Cicada, a circular, handheld musical instrument. The device has a smooth, brown surface with shiny, oval-shaped touch sensors arranged in a circular pattern. A small speaker grill is visible near the top, and a black lid is hinged open, revealing a dotted visual pattern inside. The overall look is modern and organic, resembling a polished seed pod or insect shell. Doruk Ozturk
