I agree with dr. Kirby about Thinking like an Engineer! But when it comes to manage complex foot asymmetric morphologies through designing custom-made footwear (which is mainly the Pedorthist job, with all its components starting from shoe last, shoe soles, uppers, patterns, etc.....having in mind the aesthetics of the final product related with patient's acceptance) and using modern technologies as 3DPrinting, I believe we should think like an Architect!
Why? For those interested I've tried to explain in a paper regarding Pedorthic Information Modeling concept!
Thank you!
