“Designers want to work on original projects that move us forward a little bit, that make people see the world in different ways, and that bring some joy and wonder and enlightenment somehow.“

BRIEF (Final assignment for Design Studies Experiences course):  Identify a “bother” in your daily life and design a solution in the form of a product, graphic, app, experience, or other. 

Design students draw a lot, sharpening pencils with both regular sharpeners and Exacto blades - a messy process. I designed a bin to hold the shavings that can clip onto multiple surfaces and used for small trash collection with easy disposal simply by lifting the bin from the holder once it fills up. The bin provides a collection area much greater than that of a regular portable sharpener. The clip mechanism allows for portability and use across multiple contexts.
