HANDY WORK
BOXED SET
Speculative design and improvement of a pre-existing product
Revisiting my book Handy Work, I took the design of the nail tech practice hand and improved it by adding a layer of sillicone skin. My intentions were not only to improve the realism of the hand, but to boost community and connectedness. The layer of skin is to simulate the clients hand, therefore preparing the technician to be cautious of the health of the clients hand.
I thought about who would be using my product and what purpose it would serve for them. Imagining the clients, I created a fictional community that was built on the foundations of community, intospection, and creativity.
