What interests Dyson most in this academic project is the students' research and approach to make the product, rather than the finished product itself.

The finalist projects are:

"Adap'Table" by Polly BROTHERWOOD from ENSAD
"Yourban Garden" by Ariane PRIN from ENSAD
"CAP'UCHE" by Marguerite HERLANT from ENSAD
"Luz" by Benjamin GRANDORGE and Anne FONTAIMPE from ENSCI
"Softfridge" by Grégory PRADAL from Esad Reims
"HUB" by Emmanuel YEME from Camondo school
"Communication & Handicape" by Zhou Lei from Strate Collège Designers
"Exaequo" by Sophie HEDDE from Strate Collège Designers

These eight projects, exhibited from November 6th to December 15th 2006, have been selected by Dyson because they reprensent a radical approach of design and bring innovating solutions to daily life problems.

Sophie HEDDE's project is on the conception of a small sail boat adapted to handicapped people. It will also be exhibited at the Salon Nautique in December 2006 (Porte de Versaille, Franck Roy's shipyard's stand)
