After our tutorial, we tested out the bottle workshop. It was interesting to see our different approaches to the task. We brought in a selection of tools and connective materials such as string, wire etc. It was nice to share the finding form exercise and hopefully opened the groups eyes about the possibilities of a plastic bottle, or any single material for that mater. I am going to continue with this exercise to generate more ideas and maybe develop some into product design prototypes. I really want to push the qualities of the plastic bottle to see what they can do. Thinking back to designers making materials look like something else at Milan, what if I could make the man-made, artificial plastic bottle look like something natural?
