WHO ATE MY PENCILS
A CUTE PLAYFUL PENCIL SHARPNER
1/5

Solution

I TRIED TO MAKE A BORING PENCIL SHARPENER MORE FUN TO USE & DESIRABLE AS AN OBJECT OF INTEREST. IT ALSO DICTATES A NEW WAY OF INTERACTION FOR THE USER.

What makes your product bold and innovative?

THE UNIQUE SHAPE MAKES IT A VERY FUN & INTERESTING WAY TO SHARPEN YOUR PENCILS & IT CAN BE USED BY BOTH LEFT & RIGHT HANDED PEOPLE

Which target group is this product aimed at?

YOUNG KIDS TO "YOUNG AT HEART" ADULTS & CREATIVES WHO LIKE FUN AND LOVE BEAUTIFUL OBJECTS.

Why is secondary aluminum the perfect material for your idea?

THE CONCEPT IS BASED ON THE STRENGTHS OF SECONDARY ALUMINUM PROPERTIES. IT GIVES A NEW LIFE TO ALUMINUM BY MAKING THE USER LOVE & FEEL PROUD OF THE PRODUCT

Elegant design, different ... perhaps a redesign to be able to use a standardized and especially flat cutting blade, make it more feasible to design the real world. Greetings and good luck :)

hummmm ... valid observation but that would be obvious right...?

I am trying to balance practical solutions with future possibilities ...

here I tried to push our understanding of what blades should be like? with advance in manufacturing process, I wanted to see if an alternate definition for blades can be achieved. with ceramics used for cutting knives, I think cutting tools have gone through a design shift.

hope we will be able to crack this type of blade : )
