WHAT IS THE PROBLEM
For my Product Design and Technology folio in 2021 it has
been communicated to me that my design must be centred
around an issue in day to day life and endeavour to improve
the issue. The final product must meet the requirements
outlined by the end user/client and be of its own unique
design.
The problem the end user has brought to my attention is that
their current jewellery storage system does not allow for any
organisation of their jewellery. Their current jewellery box
has limited space, this is a problem because it does not allow
for the end user to collect more items. They have said that all
of their jewellery ends up as a big tangled mess and
discourages the owner from wearing them.

the final product.

USER CENTERED DESIGN
The purpose of user centered design is to gain an understanding of what the end user would like and does not want in the final
product. The research conducted in the user centered design phase is all primary research in the form on one on one questions.
What is the problem this product must fix? This product must provide me with a place to store my
jewellery, watches, sunglasses and personal effects.
Where do you intend on keeping the product? The product will be kept in a drawer in my room. The drawer

Will the product need to be ‘child proof’? Because the product has valuable contents it will not be
accessible to children.
How much would you be willing to pay for the product? If the product is of a very high quality and is designed to last
for a long time I will pay $150.

The user cantered design has allowed us to gain information about what the end user wants in the product. The size of the
product should be 440 x 345 x 145 mm. The product will not be kept in direct sunlight, there fore a high quality varnish is
preferred by the end user. The product will store sunglasses, watches, rings and other jewellery.
DESIGN BRIEF
The purpose of the design brief is to outline all of the product design factors, constraints and considerations and the quality statement in relation to
the product being designed. The design brief is a clear an concise statement of what is to be designed and constructed.
After much consultation with Alice Meehan it has been decided that the final product that is being designed is a storage container that has the ability to store
watches, rings, bracelets, necklaces, and other personal items. The product must offer an innovative solution to avoid jewellery getting intertwined whilst displaying
it all in a clear and organised way. The product will aid in making it easier for the end user to choose accessories before work or social events. The design process
should be done in conjunction with the end user to ensure the best product is archived. The product must incorporate a solution that allows for the storage layout to
change as Ms Meehan collects more personal items. It is also of the upmost importance that the storage solution is the most user friendly design possible to
encourage Ms Meehan to get the most of the product. The product must fit into its surrounding in the end users home, all of the existing furniture in the home is dark
glossy hard wood and a somewhat distressed lighter wood. The end user also like when wood and metal are seamlessly combined. It has been communicated from
the end user that the product must uphold the three pillars of sustainability, those being, social, economical and environmental. Ms Meehan has put a notable amount
of emphasis on the economical pillar, she believes that she will pay a slightly higher price of $150 on the assurance that the product will last for a number of years to
come. The legal responsibilities of this storage container is ensuring that all sourcing of materials and sourcing labour meets all Australian laws. It is also the
responsibility of the designer to source finishes that are non toxic and will not harm the end user in any way. The storage container should be made of wood and
incorporate metals, this has been indicated to me from the end user in her like for modern design and materials. Because the product has to incorporate so many
small features and objects it is important that all of the processes and technologies are executed accurately and according to the plans.

The processes stage of the design process outlines all of the stages that may be required in the production of the final product. All of these processes
will be used to achieve the best outcome of the end user. The processes that may be required in the construction of this product are joinery, finishing
and chemical adhesion of materials.
Timber Joinery: Timber joinery sees the connection of two or more pieces of timber. This can be
done in may different ways and many different styles. Although the joining of timer is mostly for strength
designers also put a lot of weight on how a joint will look. Different joints uses different grain orientations
and use different lines. The strength of a joint is also highly depended on how the grain is orientated and
how well the joint is completed by the craftsperson. A very high strength joint would be a mortis and
tennon whereas a very visually pleasing joint may be a mire or a dovetail.

Finishing: Finishing incorporates many different techniques. Finishing requires different stages, the
first stage is preparing the material. Preparing the material may be fixing imperfections in wood with a
filler compound, sanding wood to smooth of the grain, wiping down metal to remove oil and grease.
Wood can be finish with paint, oil, wax or shellac. Metal can be finished with paint or can be powder
coated. Finishing a material can increase the life of the material but it may require constant upkeep such
as reapplication of finishing product.

Chemical adhesion of materials: This process sees the combining of two different materials such as
wood and metal through chemical adhesion. This process involves the preparation of both materials by sanding with
a 80-120 grit sand paper. An epoxy or glue is then used to glue the two materials together and the two are clamped
or taped in place whiles the epoxy/glue dries. It is important that all squeeze out is cleaned up before the epoxy/glue
dries because it will be difficult to remove when dry.

The materials section has helped the designer discover what are the advantages and disadvantages of some possible materials that will be used in WOODGROVE 31
the final design. The designer has decided that the product will be made from walnut and brass highlights. The designer believes this will fit the BANK
end users criteria and taste in design very well.
FINISHES
The finishes section of the design process shows the end user the different types of possible finishes that they could choose to have the product finished
with. There may need to be two or more different finishes used on this project due to the possible combination of wood and metal. It is important the
finish not going to impact the jewellery in any way.
Danish Oil: Danish oil is an oil based finish that provides a clear, natural finish to the timber. Danish oil would be
a great option for the finishing of this product due to the end users criteria being a clear natural finish. Cabot’s
recommends 2-3 coats for a for a low to matte sheen finish. When applying this finish it is recommended by Cabot’s
that gloves and glasses are worn and that the finish is applied in a well ventilated area. At bunnings a 500ml can of
danish oil can be purchased for $36.70. 500ml will cover 5 square meters. https://www.bunnings.com.au/cabot-s-500ml-clear-danish-oil_p1522025
Bees Wax: Bees wax is a toxin free finish that can be applied to wood raw or pre finish. Bees wax will provide a
smooth shiny finish on the product. Bees wax is also a good way to protect metal from minor rust. Bees wax would not
be of any harm to jewellery as it provides a very soft forgiving finish to the contact points. An issue with using bees
wax on this project is it may wear away in high touch areas. Bees wax does not require and PPE due to is natural non
toxic properties. A 200g tin can be purchased form bunnings for $12.50. https://www.bunnings.com.au/glitz-200g-beeswax-polish_p4460472
Walnut Prooftint Stain: Feast Watson’s walnut stain is a very multipurpose finish. This is a sprit based WOODGROVE Number
BANK
finish meaning it is a quick drying stain the soaks into the grain of the wood. Because this is a spirt based finish it has
the ability to be diluted with a colour reducer allowing for experimentation to find the most aesthetically pleasing
colour for the product. This finish would not offer the wood very much protection over time. The PPE required to be
worn when allying this finish is safety glasses and gloves ensuring the application process is in a well ventilated area. A
250ml can is available at bunnings for $26.50. https://www.bunnings.com.au/feast-watson-250ml-walnut-prooftint-interior-stain_p1520068
The finishes stage has help the end user identify the cost, benefits and drawbacks of danish oil, bees wax and walnut Prooftint stain. The bees wax
is a preferred option if the product is going to contain both wood and metal elements because it can be used on both materials.
VISUALISATIONS
Visualisations are the stage of the design process where the designer gathers inspiration form the existing products and market
research along with elements of the design brief and begin to do quick thumbnail sketches. The sketches do not have to meet all
of the criteria set in the design brief it is just a place where the designer can start to explore how the product may look.

Design option 5 is a combination of design option 3 and design option 4. One of the highlighting
features of this design is that it is totally modular, meaning that the try and try inserts inside of the box

Because the tray is separate from the box it will allow the end user to decide how they wish to store
their items. The box has the capability to store 3 pairs of sunglasses, ten rings four watches, 4 bracelets

tray allowing for the end user to store miscellaneous items.
