Claudia's ides

The most interesting part of this vedio is the design process of the scooter (suited to conditions in India).Richard Seymour and Dick Powell looked back to the India culture,its life and physical needs.By considering many aspect, they've got their final product.The reason why they did the research is trying to find the idea which is exciting enough to its target market.The ability of finding this sort ideas must be the basic element of how to be a succeed designer.

Another part inspired me a lot is the X factor,"the initial impact the products has upon the comsumer when it is first seen.The way we should learn to our product is how to catch the eye sight of the client.

Before i watched this vedio, i did not really understand why we need to do the eco design.even though noticed wasting is a problem , i could never realize how serious the problem is . The most incrediable example is radio which just cost $4.99.However, the externalized true cost for this product is losing the nature resources and the clean air,rasing the cancer rate even our further generations.As Annie said“People created it, we’re people, so let’s create something new” .As a designer , we should shoulder the resposibility of doing eco-design as much as we can.In other hand, it is better to educate the public thinking more about the environment rather than how to be more fashion by buying a bunch of stuffs.

"DNA"is the key point of this spech,which presents the design, nature and art.


Aboviously,the inspiration of design comes from the nature.As an designer,who is also a "translator of techonolgy into the products",needs to pay much more attention of the nature and think more about how can we feel about that.Ross thought about the water and drew it as his impassion of "water".Someday,he created a bottle .it means a lot even unsucceed.

Natural growing patterns,the most amzing beauty, create more opportunity of the products as the hole chair, the stairs and so on.What i learned form thish vedio is to think for the natrue.People are suprised from the nature of which could touch people's soul.As a designer,we should shoulder the responsiblity of showing this kind of the art form for the public though the techonolgy we learned.In this way, people could feel much more calm, happiness for the daily lives.

My product is a cake cutter which aims to create more enriching experience in cutting the cake.It solves the problems of taking the slice into your plate with the cutter, cutting both big or small cakes and even providing an opportunity of sharing the happiness and enjoyable moment with your friends or lover by holding two handles and cutting toghter .

The selling point of good products can be separated into two parts ;the product itself and the shappiness when we use it.Sometime, we love its idea ,then , buying the things without hesitation.for these stuff , we even do not want to use it.However,we also feel satisfied by looking and touching it.
The great product can be a piece of art . It is wonderful to look at.For example, the Japanise knife is good balanced."It is so sharp but delight to use".
Well,as we know, the function is a important element to be a good product.As the knife, you could not to put the needle in the handle no matter how fantastic the needle is.When i was younger,i could not understand what the function present for.I did not pay any attention on the usage.After buying a lots of bad products as well as a group of complains, truly , i understood.
"Is that a good way to play pingpang?no.But is it fun?yes."it is a self-talking.But i m thinking a lot.Designer always find a easy way for people to entertain themselves,cell-phone game , Tv game,phone camera.It could looks like a great step :a lots of stuffs are different than it was, for instant, iphone,ipod,camera(some of them can be the mp3)...Also it means we enjoy our lives better.

In few decades , "human centred" has been mentioned in a group of the fileds such as estabilishing rules and building up equipment as well as making design. I feel confused about how to design by paying attention human activities before watching this video.



I love the part of PRADA DEFENITION OF DESIGN(NY).

In addition, the most interesting product is the liquid crystal of dressing room.Firstly,the room can be seen from outside.However , the whole wall turns to be dark if press the button.




Some of my friends talked to me about these kind of innovation which are not worthful, or probably too expensive.But I do not agree with them.Well, it might be not useful as you thought nowadays. Someday ,some of them could be priceless. For example, people were trying to fly in "GIZMO Documentary " in 1977.

This video is so important because it is not only in explaining what the "Human centred" is but also open our mind to see what is going on in other countries. Also, we need to remember we are the client no matter we are the designers or not.

Let our sence of smell co-trigger our emotions and creative imagination.
