Hey Morna, I loved this video thank you! Please do more such product analyses, especially of products in/of daily use, it is very exciting to know/understand how good design and even design education is embedded in objects that are all around us.
Hi there, you are welcome! Great to hear you enjoyed the video. Yes, exactly - every product we encounter is like looking into the mind of other designers. Products in themselves are gold mines of information and knowledge. I'm working on a video about a food grater. Should be out in the next week or so. Cheers!
I'm Rich, from Taiwan, Formosa. I want to say Thank you to Morna! Very helpful! Can't wait to see more product analyzes!! I'm ID student, I have problem of not knowing how to upgrade my design's appearance and form, Wish one day I can be as knowledgeable as you, Thank you!!
I am an aspiring designer from India, your videos immensely help me in knowing the nuances of product design & help me refine my skills. Thank you very much.
Hi Morna, I am kevin, professional industrial designer, I just found you with your channel. Since I have not found any industrial design "professionals focused" channel other than sketching tutorials or learning software, I would like your channel to focus on showing your perspective of industrial design and product development at a professional level for design professionals and not just for students . There is plenty of basic information, and vlogs for design students. I think many of you can find greater value in your knowledge knowing that you have worked for so many years in an industrial design consultancy if the content is focused on sharing that knowledge for professionals who already know about design. In my case I am a professional but I always found very valuable to learn from designers with more experience than me. is just my point, a suggestion i hope i was clear otherwise thank's a lot for the content!
Hi Kevin, nice to meet you. Thanks so much for taking the time to write with suggestions. I feel like there is so much I learned "on the job" so maybe I'll focus on that. I'm hoping to make more videos once my teaching semester is over. Cheers!
Hello Dear Morna, Your videos are very informative for an industrial designer. First of all, I want to thank you for that. You put in effort and spend your time for us. After watching this video, I researched how egg cartons are molded. Does the material harden after molding or during the molding process? Do you know this? Maybe it's a really silly question, but as a curious person, I honestly wondered.
Great video ! Your analysis is very interesting and complete, and the part about the softness got me thinking about Kenya Hara's work (especially his talk about Japanese perspective on design in "Shiro/White").
Thank you! .... so I'm a bit embarrassed because I have Kenya Hara's book, Designing Design, but I still have not read it. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I'll look it up! :)
Great analysis of this product. The only thing I'd love to see is if you would dig deeper into the manufacturing process and maybe even the cost to produce. Otherwise awesome job. I'm so happy I found your channel. I look forward to more ID Talk!
Thanks Devi! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. Here is a link to a video of the manufacturing process: th-cam.com/video/CA9xBSb9NZI/w-d-xo.html The lid and lower part of Pulp Storage is manufactured with the same process as drink carriers and egg cartons which is a moulded paper pulp. Talking about the cost to produce is a more difficult conversation. I would need a file to get a quote to see how much the moulded parts would cost (price of tool that would mould the parts + part price).... And then source the other parts. There are many variables to cost and it fluctuates. For example, China has a new tax on silicone parts so our silicone parts just got more expensive to make.
Hi Morna! I have found an interesting product design called "Mighty Mug". I finally adquiered one 😁 and It is surprising how It works. I recommed you to take It a look....

You're channel is very useful. Thanks for starting this!
Hi Anavi, Thanks for the feedback! I'm happy to hear you found it useful. :)
I love all of your videos about product review from a designer's perspective. I will look forward to see more of videos like this. Thank you!
You are welcome. Thanks for sharing this info with me. Are you a student? I have a free workbook that shows how to do this type of analysis.
