Carl Frisk- Mid-Review Board and Feedback

It's not letting me post my board "Due to an internal problem." I'll post it later hopefully.

Feedback:

Robert:
-Focus on callouts that allow viewer to see where the specific parts of the chair design come from
-Emphasize the voting aspect and how that works
-Think about how to show this info. in the final presentation

Joel:
-Are you worried about homogenization, or a boring image?
-There's a nice sense of familiarity in the design, and that adds credibility to your argument

Seth:
-Think about tooling and production costs, plastics
-Dullness/homogenization
-How do you remove your personal influence from the design?
-Is the image a watered down product, think focus groups and car interiors

Rick:
-Incorporates user testing within the voting process
-Reaction to the consensus' desire vs design then ask for feedback from users
-It is a conversation about the rearrangement of the design process
-Two material, two revenue streams (wood more home based, plastic more commercial)
-Cut down on labor to cut down on cost
-Scale and proportion are key

Mary:
-Collect user information to sort through/analyze later (age, gender, materials chosen)

Sheldon from Droog:
-Jason Miller at design Miami- hypnotized consumers and asked them about chairs
-You are reworking the design process and putting the consumers input at the forefront

Kerry:
-Control form by which materials are used
-Analyze the data to get a better direction
-Look into economic theory
-Random sampling- survey sites to get true consensus

Susan Yelevich:
-Need a broader spectrum of chairs
-The image the consensus created seems random
-What if it produces an uncomfortable chair
-Focus group
-How/why does this get us to a better chair?

Mark:
-Democratic design- Etzio Menzini
-Does not seem entirely democratic, not convinced
-You still have a lot of control to interpret the consensus however you'd like

Dave:
-Variations of small details could show differences in interpretation
-Think of how to show the process in video
-More than 1 chair would show progress/evolution of voting numbers

Christian:
-Use better colors to show importance of process- yellow vs blue
-Push the interpretation towards something new
