For my minor Concept & Product Development we made a concept for a sustainable package for chocolate sprinkles. The idea is that you get a one portion of chocolate sprinkles a time, so that you don’t spill too much chocolate sprinkles. Read the PDF below for the whole description (dutch) and view the movie of the first prototype!
For a customer of me, Stylehouse 4 kids, i was asked to make a duo print flyer. I already made the site which you can see on http://www.stylehouse4kids.nl. I made the design for the site, and made the front and backend. The logo is my work to, and currently I am working on the print catalogue, that has to be visible online also. The flyer is to get some attention to the new collection.
For an individual schoolproject DesignThis, you were allowed to make something you always wanted to do. For me it was easy. I’m loving photography and wanted to try out some new techniques, so i decided to experiment with High Dynamic Range photo’s and tonemapping.
As deliverable I made a collection of 6 photo’s.

The question from Library Rotterdam was how they could get younger people(over the age of 18) interested in the library again. They also purchased an Microsoft Surface table, to make the library more interactive, also to attract more younger people to the library.
Our concept is based on all the books in the library. if you are looking for a book about datavisualisation, you can put the book on the table. All books contain a RFID chip, which the table can read. Once the table knows which book you have put on the table, it will display al relevant other books, pictures and dvd’s. By touching the book on the table, you see more information about the book, and where to find it in the library.
This concept is still in progress. I made this concept together with a friend of me. The concept is based on the ‘other people bought this also’ in online webshops. But i goes one step further. Everyone has it’s own online bookcase, and can put in al his books he ownes. He can write reviews about the books, and rate them. The extra is that if you found a book on for example bol.com, you can lookup the title on the website with the online bookcase. you can see all the people who have the book also in their bookcase. you can also view their entire bookcase. an extra function will be that you can put in al your media in the bookcase, so that your whole media and book collection will be online. in this way you get a lot more information about the book you want then just ‘people who bought this also bought this book.’
For now it’s still a concept, but we hope that in the future we can release a small prototype, so that bigger company’s can pick the idea up and make it bigger and larger.

For my minor Concept & Product Development, each period we participate in a battle. The battles are distributed by real company’s. We participated in different battles, an two of them I would like to discuss.
Because of the rules of the Battle of Concepts, I can’t tell every detail of the concepts.
First Battle was for Generali. they are an insurance company and asked the following:
” How can we make the first day at work a day that the new employees won’t forget, and make them feel comfortable from the first day?”
what we made was a test, which gave a result. that result is attached to an archetype, and attached to that archetype was a box containing typical stuff for that kind of person. With those gadgets, you could make you’re desk a lot more personal.
The second battle was for KLM and Schiphol Airport. They asked the following:
“How can we make the time waiting at the gate more comfortable and less boring?”
For this battle we did a lot of research, and went to Schiphol to ask people what they thought about the gates at Schiphol. We asked them about the size of the gates, number of seats, food and drink store’s and entertainment. Because the battle is still going on, i can’t tell about the concept, but I can show some of the result of our research.

For Stadstoezicht Rotterdam we were asked to make a new campaign for streetgarbage. we made a mix of an online website, and an offline campaign with posters. The online website is using google maps to indicate for all citizens of rotterdam were the closest garbage dump is. the offline campaign is used to make the citizens of rotterdam aware of the fact that they can easily dump their streetgarbage at several places in rotterdam, and where the closest garbage dump is.
