IDEATION
Genera2ng ideas How would nature
furnish a living room? Living in a tree that is as big
as a house. Storks do public broadcas2ng
instead of tv’s.
How can plas2c become a democra2c
material? Include the public directly in making policies about waste
management. Give everyone plas2c processing toolboxes. Make plas2c a course in
primary schools.
How can you get people to throw away more stuff?
Make the plas2c products extra ugly.
Make people’s houses smaller.

You acquire 4 processing methods.

Which one to choose?
CONCEPTUALIZATION
Kill your darlings
Requirements of the design project: Has to be scalable in order to make impact in the waste processing? Or Has to make people aware of the value of waste?
DETAILING
LEVEL 4: DETAILING
You acquire Users
DETAILING
Who are your users and what drives them?
DETAILING
Don’t overdevelop. Get it out to the market and sell it!
We electrocuted the visitors (and ourselves)
The output from the extruder
was just good enough
We worked way too hard
Shredders were molested again and again
We weren’t 3d-‐prin2ng
experts
Things about our first prototype
DETAILING
Things we learned from the events
Most people just want stuff (rings)
Works even beder with children
We need volunteers who can s2ll be excited
How to explain the difference in
between a real recycling system and an awareness project
Ideas are free
DETAILING
Things we improved in the mean2me
Prin2ng with different kinds of
plas2cs
Extruder/Shredder design
Graphic Design

CONGRATULATIONS!
YOU LEVELED UP!
