Ideation
1. Shape borrowing
The use of shape borrowing is very helpful as it can put new ideas in the designs of a shape that has already been created or have never been. This new and interesting design of a product will then have a good market sale as people may find it attractive and unique to display and to use in their home.
2. SCAMPER
Substitute: To replace part(s) of a product to make it look more interesting
Combine: To add up two or more different ideas into one product
Adapt: Unique features of other products
Modify/Minimize/Maximize: Modify the product to make it more unusual. Adjust the size so it fits perfectly.
Put to other use: Change the function of the product for more purposes
Eliminate: Remove certain unwanted features
Rearrange/Reverse: Rearrange parts and functions in the new design.

Design Appreciation
Picture from: http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Height-Safety-Harness/104246
It is very well-designed as this Harness is very safe for us to use when we are doing outdoor sports like the High Elements. It holds our whole body weight.

This is a very well-designed kettle as it looks attractive to shoppers. Despite its appearance, I think that this may not be handy when it comes to using it.
Poorly Designed Products:

This bassinet is very badly design as there is a gap there that babies will fall through and it may cost their lives.

This is a very attractive but poorly designed hook because we cannot hook things in the design above.
