Pooper Scooper Ideation

Last night I decided to change my pooper scooper idea for Designer Bootcamp, and that's after working out a different idea pretty well, but never being happy with it at all. It was best described as a collapsable hiking pole with a fish net on the end. It was for the elderly. It was boring, and unimaginative. 

So I changed my target consumer. Namely to one that could bend over easily. 

I'm working on a design that is A: inspired by existing designer home appliances and tools such as the Dirt Devil Kone, and B: takes it form language from the word 'scoop'. I'm aiming the product at young, urban 20 and 30 somethings who are living space challenged, style savvy, environmentally conscious dog lovers.

Just some ideation from last night.

Thanks for reading. I'll post how it turns out!

CyCle. An Everyday Solution to an Everyday City.

I presented my commuter bicycle concept to my Sketching Ideas class yesterday. It went really well. I'll let my images speak for my design and the target consumer. 

This project was conceived, rendered and presented in a little over 3 weeks.

Oh, the presentation went perfectly. I was told I had a great idea and certainly the best delivery of the idea. One classmate commented, that my presentation convinced him that he needed one too! Which, is good!
