Weekly Consultation 19/08/13





Feedback from tutor Mar :
The concept is much more refined, and the mechanism is quite pleasing, however i must work on the form quite a bit more.  More specifically i must work on the form on the tab of the mechanism keeping in mind how easily those with arthritis can grasp the tab in between the thumb and knuckle and as well as the form of the bottle keeping in mind that it should most likely be 500ml

Feedback from ZhaoZhao & Anders : 
The concept is quite cool, and the semantics of the shape of the mechanism and bottle does imply food, and especially the shape of the bottle implying olive oil.  I should consider changing the form of the mechanism to incorporate the tab and possibly the spout into the bottle more subtlely.  

Action plan for upcoming week : 
The most important action i must take this week in to fully refine the form, especially in terms of the shape of the tab and possibly the bottle.  I have explored many forms of the bottle especially the round shape, but found that having the round shape has the semantics of alcohol and tried to steer away from this.  I must resolve this in order to complete solidworks in order to get the mechanism 3d printed.
