Team KiCK iT Design Process:
Concept Development

From our design intervention, we began to develop concepts and product forms that were centered on the idea of portable components and a central home unit. To gain a greater understanding of what we wanted the product to do, we created lists of possible product attributes.

These attributes are as follows in order of most general
to most specific:

What the product could do.
What the product should do.
What the product will do.

We also generated early scenarios to explore possible ways a product of this sort could be used, as well as some basic concept sketches.
