DESIGN CYCLE

The design cycle is a model of thinking and should "e used as a strategy tohelp you investigate challenges and design) plan) create and evaluate the

products*solutions that provide answers to these challenges.

The use of the design cycle promotes a practical and in-uiry0"ased approach.

This helps you to develop practical skills and creative and critical0thinking

strategies.

It is important that you "ecome actively involved in the whole design process

and not just focus on the nal product.

The design cycle comprises of the following stages:

Can I design and create a product which is appropriate for a selected

target market and also aid my understanding of the working properties of

Acrylic?

&nit4uestion

Many people now buy clocks which differ in many ways from the traditional round

shaped models. Some of these clocks reflect the users personality or interests, or

even the type of room where it is going to be placed. our task is to design and

make an acrylic timepiece which uses a movement that runs on an !! ".#v battery.

$ery often a clock needs to be adaptable so that it is able to stand on a flat surface

!%& hang on a wall. ou may need to choose a theme for your clock. 't can be for

you, someone you know or for a particular room in your home. Once you have chosenfor whom (target market) or what your clock is for, or where it will be used, then it

will be easier to start designing.

I chose this clock because it was very

creative and colorful. The materials

were very well made. This can be

added to my design by using the

different colors in this clock and adding

it to mine.

I chose this clock because of its use

of style and how the person putsthe numbers randomly but in order I

also like the use of colors because

they really blend with each other.

I found this clock unique because

I found the design very creative

and eye catching. I also found it

very friendly for users. I think the

design looks like the sun not only

because of its color and because

of its shape.

I found this clock unique because it

was classic and i like the color green.

I chose it because I liked the green

mushroom and how it uses a theme

to create a clock.

I chose this lock because it was very

creative and I like how he turned the

human face into a clock. I also liked the

plain colors it used it made the clock

plain but good at the same time

I chose this clock because it was cool

and the clock was eye catching. This

clock can be added to my ideas by

using the idea of having a shape then

putting points on top of it.

I chose this symbol because It was

creative and it can represent allot of

things. I also chose it because it

was creative and it was simple to

make.

I chose this symbol because of its

use of lines and its creativity on how

to use simple shapes and turn it into

an art piece.

"e less convenient for people to use.'ust "e safe to use"ecause if it isn@t people will get hurt and they will complain a"out the safetiness ofyoure clock.

E. 'ust "e dura"le

"ecause if it isn@t dura"le then the clock wont last for a long time.'ust "e easy torecognise the time"ecause if it isn@t to recognise then there is no point in making a clock i think aclock is a"out making something convenient and easy to recognise at the same

time.Must have numbers on the clock

because if there isnt numbers on the clock for me it will be hard to read the time and it might be a bit inacurate.Must

have a symbol

Since the theme is about symbols the clock must have a symbol or else it does not fit the theme and it will be a bad

clock.

1 There are many ways of testing the clock so that it can pass all the

specifications. To find out if your clock is easy to break put it up and then

blow it to see if it breaks when it hits the table. To see if the clock is safe to

use smoothen all the clocks sharp edges and use your finger to run over all

the edges of the clock to see if there are any sharp parts. If you want to

know that your clock is aesthetically pleasing then go get a friend or your

classmate (5 or more) to see if he likes the clock or do a survey with the

clock picture attached. To make suer the clock stays on the wall I can hang

the clock on the wall for 20 min and see if it falls of or not. 2 To see if my

clock is not larger than 200mm x 200mm I will measure it with a ruler and

see if it is larger than the size required. To make sure the clock is easy to

understand I will ask someone to see if they can read what the clock is

saying and to see if they think the symbol the clock represents is obvious.
