WAKING UP WITHOUT ALARM:
Alarm are great and all that but we wanted a method of waking someone up akin to the sensation of stirring awake.
THIS ONE JUST HIT ME:
The heat on summer days wakes us up naturally albeit sweaty.
WORKS IN ALL SEASONS:
By infusing a timed heater with a bolster pillow, the warmth would pull us out of our slumber, allowing us to smoothly stir awake.

DELIVERY CUM CABLE BOX
RECYCLING OPPORTUNITY:
With the rise of home delivery, cardboard wastage has become more prevalent.
ANOTHER PURPOSE:
By perforating holes so as to allow people to reuse these boxes for other means, e.g a cable box.
REFLECTION:
This is just one way of reusing the box. Further branching out required.

LOUD AND ANNOYING:
When a fire alarm is falsely activated, they're often located in hard to reach places - making it a chore to turn off.
CRITICAL THINKING:
While disabling the alarm is too extreme, we can ease the situation by adopting a prevention is better than curing mentality.
SATISFYING END:
People like smacking annoying things - it's satisfying. So we made a giant button that will first glow orange as a warning before going red and loud. Now we can see should the alarm be about to go off and SMACK it quiet.

MAGNETIC BOOK SPINE
THINK OF THE CHILDREN:
Students shouldn't have to carry around heavy textbooks that when they are only studying one or two chapters.
AIN’T NOT ONE:
Chapters are blinded together with a magnetic spine to form one big book. This would allow the books to be easily taken apart and put together.
WHY THOUGH:
The preparation forces them to think about what the next day brings and how pack and prepare accordingly - they take the needed materials from the different books and snap it together.

SEE SPEED:
Everyone is constantly looking for the next sneaker breakthrough.
POSSIBILITIES OF OUR ERA:
Thermal materials now let us assess heat via colors. When used in clothing, we can tell body temperature - now imagine it luminescent colors.
FAST AS LIGHT:
By weaving thermal sensitive material into the fabric of the shoes, we now can visually assess how much energy was expanded through body heat.

CHARCOAL FAN
THE FAN:
Charcoal helps bad clear smells and odors, which is good. But they have to be placed at locations with good airflow to be effective.
REDUCING THE SMELL:
Other than scouting for such a spot, we could create one by modifying the fan, thus updating an existing product at the same time.
CLEANER AIR:
Combining both products was the ideal solution. We now get to breathe cleaner fresher air.

BUT WE CAN HAVE IT ALL:
Why not have both beverages together? Maybe we can even mix them in our mouths, y'know if you want.
NEVER COMPROMISE:
With a nifty dual cap, you can have double the taste each time. The world is ours; there is no limit to what we can have and we are infinite.

SHOWER LIGHTSHOW
QUIT HOGGING THE SHOWER:
While hogging the showers feel great, doing so wastes large amounts of water, thus a guilty pleasure.
LITERALLY A SHOWERTHOUGHT:
There had to be a way of allowing people to keep track of the time inside while not using wasting any more resources of mother earth.
TOILET TRAFFIC LIGHT:
Using graphene panels fabric as a shower curtain allows energy to be generated from the bath itself. This would be used to power led lights that change color over time - letting you know how long its been.

A NEW WAY OF SHARING:
People love to share the latest videos they have seen, but a small screen limits it to 1 or 2 people per view.
ONE FUNCTION:
The goal was to create an easy-on-the-go method of sharing visual imagery. We wanted to turn any place into a cinema.
RECREATING SPACE:
A wireless-based projector (that syncs up to the phone via Bluetooth) that fits in your palm. With a sticky end, you can put it on any surface.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME:
Regular health check-ups help us stay in tip-top shape, but how often do we bother to go?
TECHNOLOGY ONCE AGAIN:
With modern advancements in technology, they can now read your BMI, body fat level, blood pressure, mental state all from a short 3 seconds footage.
DAILY SELFIES = DOCTORS AWAY:
Enabled whenever you open to take a selfie with your front camera, the app will do a quick check for health irregularities. If not, you wouldn't even know it did it's thang.
