HELPING HAND
Design a functional item for the kitchen or bathroom that is an original concept or a significant improvement on an existing product and made mainly from plastic.
Initial Sketches
Research
The design could address problems that affect household members of any age from children to the elderly and those with disabilities, or deal with other issues such as accessibility or the lack of space. Consideration should also be given to how your design will maximise the product’s lifespan.
​
I started the process by brainstorming possible everyday problems people face in the bathroom and kitchen, this included people with disabilities, elderly and children. As well as researching how many people face each issue to try an identify which were the biggest pain points for people.
