1069 Teaspoons

Final project- Research project

Advisor: Chanan De Lange

​
The project involved the process, search and development of different shapes and forms that are derived from a disposable teaspoon; and concluded in the creation of an Index of Shapes to be used in product design.
I produced 1069 different shapes that evolved from the original plastic teaspoon.
Each shape or form can be used as the basis for designing a product.
A teaspoon is a simple object that has evolved over many years.
I researched the shape, use and different functions of a teaspoon.
Different  test cases evolved during the process and I finally chose a few products to design and develop.  I finally focused on designing a pair of shoes.
This project is a reflection of the method in which a designer thinks and works and illustrates the designer’s ability to design a product based on any object, plant or life form that exists in the universe.
