QCCQ: Objectified
Q-uote: "That's what we're really always looking for whenever we design, ways we can improve the way people do things without them even knowing or thinking about it."- Davin Stowell, CEO & Founder of Smart Design
C-omment: I find it interesting that we all take everyday things for granted. A small example is the Salt and Pepper shaker. They are so simple and easy to use. We have used them since we were all little and have become accustomed to using them. In terms of the engineering aspect, I think it makes quite a bit of sense when it comes to making sure that the process of doing something is seamless From something simple, like a salt and pepper shaker, to something more complex, like an iPhone, you want it to be easy and fast to use. I know that nobody likes to wait a long time for simple things to be done!
C-onnection: In a way, I do think I can connect to this quote. I use different forms of technology all the time. I like to not have to think about replying to a text. When I do something that seems so simple, I like it to be simple! Now that I think about it, when I was looking at other people's Salt and Pepper shaker designs, they were all simple! Some may have been fancy and complicated. But in a way, they were all simple. I think that a lot of people like to create things they would use to make their lives simple. When we had the chance to design something like a Salt and Pepper shaker, we all made it simple. I find that quite interesting.
Q-uestion: After looking at this quote and analyzing it, I do not have any more existing questions. I think it is quite self explanatory and really interesting. It definitely opens up a new perspective of looking at everyday items.
