Reverse DesignAudience | Design | Drawing
This project was simply about the process behind designing a product. I chose the product Adspecs as my starting product and looked at the demands and audience for this product. This product was primarily created for children in third world countries and has a cheap design to make sure everyone gets a chance in education, even if they are hindered by their vision. The lenses can be altered, so everyone can use these glasses. I thought that this changing of strength in the glasses can be used in the first world too, where children often need to get new glasses a couple of times a year to keep up with the growing eyes. This means either high costs for the parents having to buy new glasses every time, or children walking around with glasses that do not match their eyes anymore. So I altered the design a little to make sure the glasses can keep being altered and the children really want to wear them. They are more expensive than the original Adspecs, but they are always cheaper than 5 pairs of glasses per year. The glasses have a superhero theme to make sure small children think the glasses are cool enough to wear. They can choose their favorite superhero, and wear the glasses matching their idols. |
