Seeing the World with Creative Eyes
In this week's exercises, I was tasked with picking a simple, boring object and redesign it in a creative way. I chose to redesign a toothpick container. In my process, I first sketched the original container that was plastic, flimsy, and boring. Then I thought of ways on how to redesign it like making a round wooden base that spins and putting a label on it that says pick me.
This activity is all about seeing things differently. It taught me to look at common objects in my daily life and reimagine how they could be better, more beautiful, or just more fun. I feel like the purpose of this exercise was to sharpen observation and train visual creativity. I learned that a small upgrade can make everyday objects feel more thoughtful. Even something as small as a toothpick holder that is redesigned can change how people interact with it. Moving towards the future, I believe this could help me by using this exercise as a creative warm up or even real world innovations, such as how you can look at some everyday basic item and think of ways to redesign it and make it better.
