Project 3 Rationale 3:57 AM

Through the brief, i aimed to design a product that celebrated, recorded and reminded an
occurance in time. The product uses the idea, of doing one good deed a day, adding a golden piece to the key after each deed. After seven good deeds the user would get a reward from the box.

Bad Design [ Task 4] 12:18 AM

For Bed Design, i chose to use this lamp as an example for a design that causes human errors. It features a switch that seems like its used for turning the lamp on, however it was designed to actually loosen the lamp so it can move up and down, so you can adjust the way the light can shine. What's also frustrating is when the switch is flicked, the light instantly falls down, which could lead to a shock and confusion.

My Solution:

To make the switch less distinctive as a on/off switch so it lessens the chance of human error.

Project 2 Rationale 3:20 PM

For Postal Presents, i decided to design a tie rack for business men. The reason for it's receiver to receive such a gift, would be when he is being acknowledge for being promoted by his peers or family. Also can be suited as a birthday present or house warming gift to be sent via mail. The design is easy to assemble, requiring not much effort, and is used to store up to five ties (however, you can always leave ties rolled up around the product itself.
