Combining theory and craft, Tucker designs services for humans
Tucker Witter, a service designer at Harmonic Design, has always been curious about the relationship between creativity and human research. He began his design journey studying rehabilitation science and assistive technology at the University of Pittsburgh, honing his research, drafting, manufacturing, and human-centered design skills. His expertise in building custom research approaches and passion for pushing the craft of service design aid him in his goal of guiding clients to a service-oriented mindset.
After earning his M.F.A. in service design from Savannah College of Art and Design, Tucker worked in the federal design consulting space, working with the Department of Veteran Affairs and the United States Postal Service. He also developed the service design community in Washington, D.C., through the D.C. chapter of the Service Design Network. He recently moved to Portland, Maine, where he continues to refine his creative practice to improve the services that we interact with every day.
Examining creativity in our world to inspire ingenuity in the studio
As a service designer and maker, Tucker constantly explores different crafts materials to infuse into his own service design practice. When not studying the services around him, you can find him throwing pottery, sewing a quilt, listening to a new, hyper-specific music genre, or biking along the coast of Maine.
