All Our Eggs In a Basket

Our first project was to design a paper container with only a teaspoon of glue or foot of tape and carry 5 eggs. It was the project that taught people to sketch out ideas and brainstorm, and try to create as much variety in our initial sketches. [We learned to sketch out ideas and brainstorm quickly, and try to create variety in our initial sketches.]


The process also included sketch models. These are quick models based on sketches, which in this case we used paper, and we tested them with both plastic and real eggs. The idea of diversifying sketch ideas and not fixating on one intial design would help provide a foundation to all the other projects.


With the deadline coming to an end, it was our first time creating presentation boards and presenting our ideas to the class. Our teacher had us dress formally to have the full experience of presenting our work. What a first for all nighters.


Next up is the lamp project...
