Initial Ideas
- Target Market
- I could base it towards children
- 7 - 13 yrs
- there is a gap in the market for
easy-to-use, child friendly radios
- Girls or Boys?
- at young ages, children can be very
particular about the colour which
they might want the product to be.
- if I wanted to aim my product
towards girl I could make it
bright pinks and purples
(stereotypically)
- if I wanted to aim
it towards boys I
could make it dark
greens and blue
and blacks
- I could base it more towards adults
- they might be more likely to be
visiting a museum and buying
products from the museum shop.
- Is there a gap in the market for radios
for adults though? There are many
Radios which are for adults so how could
I make my product stand out?
- Location
- it would have to be designed to fit on a flat
surface.
- in a children's bedroom?
- in a kitchen or living area?
- where would you be
listening to the radio
- Materials
- what materials should i consider?
- acrylic or HIPS
- acrylic can be heat moulded and has strong
colours and a huge variety of coulours.
- HIPS can be vacuum formed and
has many bright colours
- Easy to glue and secure
in shape. Also it can be
cut using a Lazer cutter.
- leather - many radios have a leather
cover and i really like the aesthetics of
that on radios
- metals
- How?
- what techniques could i use to
make my product?
- vacuum forming
- acrylic heat moulding
- soldering
(components onto
circuit board)
- welding
- Price
- I think that this type of product could be worth up to
about £30
- I looked at existing product
prices, with my target market
being children, and the price
range seemed to be mainly
around £15 - £40.
- aestheitcs
- i would want it to look
modern and simple and
easy to use.
- if i was to aim it towards
child girls i would make it
bright pinks and purples
