Recap Brainstorm
Meeting 14.03.23

Quiana, Tevin, Nilo

NOTE FROM NILO THE POINT OF OUR COLLABORATION SHOULD BE TO ‘’EXECUTE’’ SOMETHING QUICK AND EASY. WE DON’T HAVE TO GO INTO OUR IDEAS TOO DEEP OR SERIOUS. KEEP IT FUN, LIGHT AND QUICK.






Today we focused on ‘’problems’’ that arise for us as creatives such as:

SKETCHING AS CREATIVES

  • Why do we want every sketch to be good, fast, well-branded, insightful? How can we design something that enforces fleeting thoughts? like the fleeting sketch again? REFERENCE, THE MAGNETIC DRAWING BOARD.
  • Why do creatives forget to hydrate themselves during flow states? How can design help?

    ‘’IF THE SHOE FITS’’

  • Quiana shared her working doc for AIDEA, in which we really liked the rubber shoe/slipper design: alparaghata sandals. For the following weeks, we will focus on those slippers as a starting point. Who knows, maybe we end up with a hat. 
    We will focus on: Iterating shape, form, material and concept. Where does it come from, why is the designed shaped as it is, which material is it made in and what could be a modern interpretation? 


NEXT MEETING (28.03 @ 1PM)


1. Braindump Let’s gather inspiration regarding the slippers, the history, the origin, similair modern references etc. (and put them all into Miro, Link TBA).

2. Initial Sketch Quiana Presents initial sketches (very rough, can be 1 sentence idea’s or just moodboards) and we go through it. In this meeting we’ll start to form prompts that we could use to generate with in the next session.
