Kinectic Design can be useful in two main ways: First, as a means of improving the way existing objects perform their functions, and second, as a method of inventing and developing new product concepts.

The New Design: Kinetic Design.
Industrial design is moving in a new direction: Kinetic Design. Kinetic Design entails the aesthetic design of physical movement. By doing this, industrial designers will not just create forms, but design the movement of those forms for their time through space. This new form of design also opens doors for new curriculum in design schools. This new curriculum will be able to help develop new ways of thinking and ways to be innovative for young designers. Most industrial design firms consist of artists with various amounts of skills for their job. There are many that can draw, create foam or CAD (computer aided design) models, and develop color and graphic treatments but currently, there are no designers specifically designated to decide how the products will move. Kinetic designers will soon fill this void.
