uring this stage, it is required to visualize the concept by experimenting with different materials physically. One of
my approaches is to explore form more from materials rather than drawings. In this project, I tried to combine both sketching and prototyping. It is hard to measure which approach was more beneficial. I believe that it was equally valuable. Another goal for this stage is exploring new possibilities of wellknown to me materials rather than exploring new ones, but working at the amateur level. I do not think it is a “safe approach.� On the contrary, developing some skills on a more advanced level with well-known material can be highly beneficial for the future. Overall, the main goal is to develop the design prototype as best is possible for the created idea. Additional goals are essential, but not the vital priority.
