Project 1 - Packaging : Week 2

Studio Feedback - Tutor Scott


Concept 1 - Washing powder like a draw serving design, where the draw carries the serving into the washing machine. Scott's feedback believe washing powder are not a big problem for arthritis and carpal tunnel patients. He believed the existing spoon grip option is still a better solution

Concept 2 - Suction milk packaging, believe it to create more complications since it needs to be use at the edge of the table and the tap might not be a great gesture for the user.

Concept 3 - The per serving butter packaging is more consider to patients that needs a healthy food diet. Tutor believe there are a potential for this concept but the per serving butter will conduct more packaging waste.

Concept 1 - I liked the idea that it's a nice redesign for pain gels, and the roller will make it more easy to apply. But I have the doubts that it is already done on the market. And I'm not sure if the twist cap will solve the problem.
Concept 2 - It's a unique concept for patients that need to carry syringes out in public. Not 100% sure about the security of the bottle for child restraint.
Concept 3- The pill control concept is good the press and the hole to dispose the pill need to be size readjust. And medical users are usually in a older age group they might like the pill button and disposer more obvious.

All 3 concepts were on petfood, her direction thoughts this week were basic on reusing the packaging design, which might not be the thought of the users. Usually users would like to dispose the petfood packaging to avoid washing. I like the triangle and hexagon idea but it still in it's early stage if it's a solid concept. She might be able to work on portable petfood when users are travelling with their pets and the packaging will avoid mess. 

"Follow me luggage "

“Follow me” luggage

A future luggage design five years from now, which targets at high-end fashion journalist. The design itself uses an origami structure look to appeal the uniqueness of the luggage. It contains an edgy structure to capture people’s attention and representing the pride of its user. The choice of colour scheme is black and gold to keep its simplicity since the shape is already complicated, decide to incorporate since black presents maturity and gold represents supreme royalty. Where the target market contains wealth and class therefore this luggage would suit them perfectly. The opening of the luggage contains at “z” pattern that interrelates with the other family products with my team.  

The special features for this 4-5 years futuristic design contains:

• ·         Bluetooth location detector – luggage stays within 1m safety zone
• ·         Wifi Charging system – Wifi chargers are becoming a common trend
• ·         Electromagnetic security doors – Provides a very strong protection barrier for the luggage, when an electronic current passes through the strip, it creates a stronger magnetic field as a lock.
• ·         Mobile control app / voice detection command control
• ·         Pull up handle for user to keep hold of their luggage in crowed places
• ·         The choice of material is also a mix strong plastic fibre that is harder to be damage against pressure.

 

Since it was a group project it needed to have a family relationship with the other peers products

Where they all have a "Z" shape symbol and a equal theme of black.
