In today's session I developed my ideas further and tried a few experiments to try to get some possible new designs and ideas. I did some clay work first with my plaster mold and then I tried to make some more cardboard boxes to test out designs.
This experiment in design started out as a plaster mold that I had made earlier and ended with a modded design of the original sweet jar that I feel makes it easier to shelf and able to carry more sweets. I think overall the design of the new plastic bottle has gone down well because it still looks visually appealing but as a consequence to all its enhancements it stores a lot more and an fit into smaller shelves if necessary. I think the only thing I could really improve on is to actually add more and maybe change it into some kind of final design, but overall a successful little experiment.
The second thing I did today was another model of a chocolate box design in the triangle shape I used last time but with some improvements added to make it more useful and more refined. I think that this new design on my previous box is such a great improvement over my other one because it actually has a functional lid that goes on top of it, and the fact that its stuck more securely with hot glue instead of just masking tape on the other one. The material is a lot better as well since its much more secure and its a lot more recyclable and eco-friendly. The improvements I need to make on this one is its visual look as its a bit too minimalistic so adding a label or two might make it stand out more, and the quantity of the product so that I can see how well it would do on shelves and in a box. Hopefully this will develop into a final conclusion that will be highly successful.
