Project 1: Accessible packaging- week 2 concepts
Tutor (Tom):
Concept 1: look at existing products if it exists. Also look at different showers and because it may not work in every shower.
Concept 2: may topple over due to the unstable stand it sits on. Not knowing where the tooth past will dispense so clear indication is required. If tooth paste can come out of the product due to its thickness.
Concept 3: The griping nature of the product may not be good for arthritis sufferers. Jam may not come out unless it really processed.
Feed back from peer 1 ( Matthew Patane): Good research. Explored good ideas, specifically like the shampoo bottle. Might want to explore your "wow" factor for the products what would inspire someone to buy it and then show it off. The toothpaste concept has alot of potential for future designs and exploration.
Feed Back from peer 2 (Debbie Tram) : The second concept i believe has more potential then the others because it explores a new idea and looks at brushing your teeth in a different way. Just needs to refined and looked at more closely with details like where the toothpaste comes out of and the stand.
Lessons from listening to other tutors (Scott) : Should look at existing products and maybe look at trying to experience what problem you are adressing for example arthritis putting on layers of gloves and opening a jar.
My reflection and plan of action for this week: I am going to keep my options open and look into the first two concepts in depth more. I believe these two have the most potential when refined to be something good. This week i shall research and go into shopping centers to look at products that are being offered. As well as looking at other ways to mount the product on the wall without being a permanent thing. Explore some shapes with mockups and finalise a design by monday 12th of august.
