Blue Sky 2018 

I found a client who had a very interesting problem, and created a solution for it. The problem my client, Brandon, was having was that the music binders we have simply do not fit in one’s bag. They’re too big to fit in a bag, and if you carry them by hand all your music gets soaked.

We have started Blue Sky. This year’s question is: What is a problem one of your non PLP peers has that you can fix?  We are using the launch process to create our designs 

Look, listen and Learn Ask Questions Understand the Problem Navigate Ideas Create a Prototype Highlight and Fix

The set up for the exhibition was themed differently depending on what group you were in. My group was quality education room. So our room was themed to a classroom. Which meant we didn’t have to change much....since we were already in a classroom 

Understanding the problems and solutions 

I was lucky and my material was already waterproof 

For understand problems I basically just did a bunch of research on the different options. I created different shapes for the bag. My first Idea 💡 was to create a pouch like device but that didn’t work at all. I realized all the paper would get folded and would defeat the purpose of the bag. I then had to consider what I could Use to fasten the pouch to my bag 

I ran into a slight problem. The buttons I had installed in the back of my pouch wouldn’t stay on. So it was time to bring in the industrial grade bonding agent. I.e. GORILLA GLUE Then to keep the flap attached to the back I added buttons to the back.
