Chapter 3: Design and Designing


Design and Designing

                Designs can vary greatly across time, regions and culture. A popular design today in America may not be popular in Europe or even in America years down the road. An early way of writing required a pen that was dipped in a type of ink reservoir and would only write as long as ink trapped in the pen tip lasted. A necessity of modern pens is extreme duration and functionality in the conditions of operation. A $2 pen design has the ability to write as well and long as a $2000 pen. The difference in most cases is the status of expense that the pen brings to the consumer. Despite the value, inspiration and design can and should be considered from many different perspectives. Inspiration ideas can stem from the materials, case studies, nature, sketching or prototyping. The more that is taken into consideration the better the design will be.
