Green Gift Weekly Progress One and Two

Green Gift: SipCup

Weekly Progress One:

Message TeaBags

I discussed the several ideas i had with a couple of friends as well as my tutor

Peer One: I like the idea of giving someone something related to tea because they can interact with it and thats what makes it interesting.

Peer two: Tea related gifts are great. But you need to figure out what the tea bags are made of. What tea you would put in them. How the message is to appear etc.

Tutor: Tea gifts seem to be a very popular thing amongst females. The idea of the message tea bag is good but its more of a packaging issue rather than a green gift. Further develop your concept of tea accessories. This is too vague.


Weekly Progress Two: 

Concepts were further developed.  After discussion with peers and tutors the idea was further developed into an actual product.

Peer One: Good progress from last week. The development of a cup is a good idea, although its something thats been done by a lot of people and so you would need to make its yours somehow.

Peer Two: I like the idea of the cup. If its going to be made of recycled glass you have to take into account that not all glass can be recycled and maybe consider an alternative.

Peer Three: To make your design more interesting you would need to create a way of interaction with it from the user. What would you change about it to create a more interactive and personal product.

Tutor: You still need to further develop the form of the cup and maybe this could be the interactive element to it, the way the user holds it.
