Choose a direction, is it molded or baked, is it flat or log. or is it a premed set of pieces. Get out of the lincoln log world. keep it simple. This is trendy and very family focused. What makes this easier or better than what people currently do?what problem are they solving?
Trying to combine too many ideas in one. Make it crafting your own string of xmas lights. Focus on one thing - string lights - not everything. Liked the original idea. Almost like “lego” for string lights. anyone can do it. “Pandora Jewelry" of Xmas lights. Not an avent calendar.

Take the story telling part of the pumpkin but use a campfire. wanted to see how the book interacts with the fire. how does it know what story you are reading. No smell. Loved the original poster concept of an indoor fire with storytelling. make it more like a campfire. Use light and sound effectively.
How can you use the water to your advantage (propellers, swirling) and more interactive like mission impossible or mouse trap

Aesthetic
Sensory Perception
Is this subjective?
Aesthetics for Survival
Reproduction (hair, skin, symmetry, ratios)
Smell/Taste Danger
Power of AestheticsAesthetically pleasing objects enable you to work better. Products and systems that make you feel good are easier to deal with and produce more harmonious results - Norman
Which do you prefer?Norio Ohga (Sony Chairman) - “At Sony, we assume that all products of our competitors have basically the same technology, price, performance, and features. Design is the only thing that differentiates one product from another in the marketplace”
Which do you prefer?
Which do you prefer?
People will buy what looks better as long as they believe it meets the basic functional requirements.
People will buy what looks better as long as they believe it meets the basic functional requirements. and if it looks really good, it doesn’t even need to “function”
aesthetics are important in product design

Product Aesthetic The typical person uses a toaster at most 15 minutes per day. The remaining 1,425 minutes of the day the toaster is on display. In other words, 1 percent of the toaster’s time is devoted to utility, while 99 percent is devoted to significance. Why shouldn’t it be beautiful? - Pink
Symmetry
poor man’s design tool
it is natural to find symmetry aesthetically pleasing

Play Testing Mon April 3 and Wed April 5 in Rapson Courtyard
As a team, making a two high level prototypes
Only 2 weeks! Start refining these two ideas to make them playable.
Make sure you understand the safety issues and manufacturing
This next one is a team grade, the entire team gets the same grade.
Wednesday’s class is for planning in Bruininks 114
Before Wednesdaycarefully read the feedback for both concepts on your team (someone should consolidate the feedback)
think of a plan for moving forward
document it in your notebook
meet in Bruininks 114
