My Great Design

Great Design 1

• Best selling products are good designs
• Good design aren’t as good as we thing because they are very hard to use
• Design should match up with expectation (need to fulfil)
• Old technology good and useful, new is complicated but looks better
• Value is added to the uniqueness of a piece
• Ease of use

Great Design 2

• Every product should be produced as cheap as possible
• A lot of things have to be taken into consideration when designing something
• Design only costs once, but it brings in more and more money, with ever product it sells
• Simple things don’t sell better, because more complicated things are needed such as colour types etc.
• Design can change lives of humans
• Artists beauty is irrelevant

Great Design 3

• Design gets you to be the #1 sold product in your category
• Getting every aspect of the design perfect, making a usable product, making the right tradeoffs between price and functionality, between flexibility and ease of use, between weight and battery life is not 100% necessary to be the best selling product
• Design has to be state of art
• No one should be able to compete with your design (it should be a must have product)
• Design has to meet my customer’s needs
• Design does not have to be 100% perfect (example: red bull)
• Has a certain flaw



My ipod

I choose my ipod as my great design, since i think that it is a great thing to have. It is great to have because, you can listen to music for the whole day without running out of battery since you can listen to it for 40 hours with out the battery dieing, or you can watch up to 7 hours of movies. It has 80 gb of memory so you can have up to 40,000 songs. on the ipod video you can obviously download songs onto it, you can watch movies, tv programs, watch games, and you can do alot more things. So therefor the ipod can do everything you would want an mp3 player o do and alot more, the ipod is also very nice you can get it in in silver or black, i think it is a great design.
