A quick sketch. And a quick prototype.
Something to remind me the colours of my clothes so that when I buy new ones I know which colour to choose to match some other clothes I already have.
Something portable to recognize my own glass at aperitif, parties, bar, dinners... A new kitchen rack to better storage glasses. A system to understand if the electricity is on or off when a light bulb is burned out. Something portable where to put coins without having a high volume wallet in your pocket. A better way to organize the applications I have on my phone. Something to keep books open, especially if hard cover. A solution to better store small headphones, camera cables, phone charger and other small cables together. A solution to quikcly check if I have with me everything I daily need. A solution to better organize things on my bedside chair. I really want to solve this problem I have. I know few other people with this problem, not specifically with a chair but with a bedside table; also, almost everyone has a bedside table that could surely be improved. I imagine creating a prototype made of wood or card board, common materials not so difficult to work with, or also using some pieces recycled from other objects. I am interested in product design and design more in general. My gap will be solved more specifically (probably) by a piece of furniture, that is also a product.  This is my personal Moka Bialetti Break. It was given to me for my 25th birthday.
I love its shape. The octagonal base to give stability and to easily open it. Functional and ergonomic. Its colour. Neutral. Its little black ball over the cap to open it. Kind of funny. No more pieces than needed. Essential. I love preparing me coffee. The smell of coffee. The water. The cold aluminium pieces to assemble. Fire. Few minutes. The sound of coffee ready. Something ritual. A break. A breath. A moment for myself. |
