Takeaways

I recognized the challenge of developing appropriate joint actions and shapes that complement the form of pears. With the affordance of corrugated cardboard, the construction of a usable and desirable carrier requires abundant experimentation. Through this project, I learned the steps of understanding unique qualities of a material, and to generate ideas from crafting sketch models.
