Pleasure Analysis

Rationale:

Target user:
For this product, I have set the target market to the population whose age is in the range of 23 to 30. The round-shaped accessories might be attractive to them, also for same type of decoration. The color of shining gold and silver will catch their eyes with the metallic feeling as well.

Introduction of the Product:
Color: The initial idea of the product was designing a girl-liked nail tool with the color of pink and black. However, I realized that what I have to do is not just at our age but beyond. Then I set the target to the age range beyond 20 years old, turn the view to the working ladies rather than the teenage girls. In terms of fitting the age range that the product needs, the color has been changed from pink to gold and it meets the target users’ like.
Shape: The whole shape of the product is like an oval with the decoration of the waving pattern. And the whole idea is to make the product looks curvy.
Function: Besides, this nail tool is supposed to be multi-function. First of all, the back of the tool has a sanding surface whose function is to shaping the nails while doing the manicure. Secondly, there is a mini brush at the top of the tool in terms of cleaning out the dusts that be produced while doing the nail beauty process. Last but not least, the nail tool has a slightly diagonal edge in order to remove the dirt that hidden in the seams of the nails with the slant angle of the edge.
Material: This nail tool is based on the material named bare wood. The brush is standing on the clay. And the sanding surface is made out of a piece of sanding paper and is pasted on the wood.
Idea: The idea of the product is from the key, the ladies from contemporary society more like the accessories which multiple functions and the mini size rather than the stuffs that weigh heavy and hard to fit into the ladies’ bags. Thus, this product is supposed to fit into ladies’ bags, even the purses of the women. In a word, it is convenient for any lady to carry with.
Also, this product is suggested to be put into lady’s bag or even a purse. Women who love beauty will find this mina nail tool useful and convenient in their daily life.

  1. I really like the fact that its so intricate in shape and size which really reflects on the type of jobs it needs to do. The balance of the product form semantically shows users which end to hold it making it pleasurable and easy to use. Maybe some small decorative detials may let the product have more references to being like an elengant piece of jewelery more than just a nail file. Best of luck

  2. I like the shape of the design, and the size is very easy to carry around, it is not something that is very big, and can be used when people are travelling on a train, bus etc, and it is not like a tool looking tool, its like a piece of decoration or jewelery. Instead of a boring looking nail file

  3. I really like this cute accessory, the bright shinning colour suits your target market. The size is good for carrying around, however it will be better if there is a hole on the product so that people can put it on their key rings and wont lose it due to its size.

  4. The reason why I like this product is because its cute size and shinning color which give a feeling of funnies and directly target to its market - young lady. And I like its multi-functions as two products are combuned in one small size product which help to reduce the weight and save the space in the bag.

  6. This is a pretty cute design, nice and easily fit into a purse or wallet or a keyring for taking out. It suits the target market, with its sleek curved shape and the bright colour, as well as it's multi-functional capability, for the working ladies who need that efficiency, in one small product. Nice work!
