Integrated Design

Description

People engage in creativity for a multitude of reasons and express it in various ways, often by designing or altering products, processes, or systems. This study specifically focuses on modifying a commonly used kitchen tool by changing its physical characteristics. Our investigation involved examining similar items in order to identify crucial questions pertaining to our objective of modifying the material of a mixing bowl. After evaluating a range of possible materials, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and Polyether (PEEK), were selected, that would enable us to achieve our research goals. To aid in our research, we employed the material selection technique known as "Ashby Charts." Through comparing and analyzing the physical properties of different materials, we discovered a promising option that could effectively serve as an alternative for creating a versatile mixer that is both safe for human health and environmentally friendly.
