In the beginning of class on Monday our group had a lot of ideas that we thought of. Some of these ideas included a coat tree, toilet, fridge, bedding, canopy and children's beds. We decided that our product would be a refrigerator. Since Coleman sells outdoors equipment, we knew our customers would include fisherman, campers and hunters. Because these customers would be on the go a lot, we thought it would be best to have a removable freezer. On top of having a removable freezer, we wanted to make this fridge the most space efficient since we figured the customers would have a lot of meat or fish to store. From this point, our ideas continued to snow ball and by Wednesday we had specific ideas and details that we want to incorporate. I think our group gets along great. We're able to bounce ideas off of eachother without feeling hurt if the idea is shot down. Because of this, we were able to go through a lot of ideas throughout Monday and Wednesday. Everyone has contributed great ideas and a good work ethic. This past weekend we were all responsible for sketching what the product will look like. Leah wanted everyone to do a sketch which I thought was a good idea since we all have different talents and visions. Overall I'm pretty happy with the group that I'm in and I can't wait to see the final presentation. Below are some notes and pictures from the first day of class:
