Unit 12 - Product Design

Part of our assignment was to create a cosmetics packaging. These are my ideas which I came up with:


My aim about this conceptual idea was to make life easier for women on the go.
One of my feedback comments was that the whole compartment might be heavy and not that practical for the user when filing the nails. I thought of making those items in plastic for solving this problem but it still might be a problem.




I don't like this idea a lot. I took it as an inspiration from the nail buffer as to try and put all the most necessary makeup that women use, on all 4 sides. Instead of keeping the same form, I manipulated it into this which can be re-assembled.




I find this interesting. My aim for this idea, was also to produce a multi-functional item for women on the go. 
Its function might seem a little bit complicated and at the same time it might not be practically good for the user.




This idea looks quite simple. I tried to make a different function on how a compact can be opened. 




I continued to try and come up with a new idea as I wasn't quite satisfied with the first four. The beauty case is the one which I'm going to continue on as I received some positive comments. The idea is good, but I'm still doing some development of machinery fittings.
