Define and Inquire

This engineering project is designing and creating a product that converts energy, me and my partner Hana wanted to create a useful product while making it look aesthetically pleasing.

We agreed a lamp would be a great addition to anyone’s room. Our dreamcatcher lamp emits soft light, making it ideal for those who want to read quietly without disturbing their roommates, sometimes, the big light in your room is too harsh, straining your eyes, so this lamp provides soft illumination while setting a calming mood. You can hang it above your desk for late-night cramming, next to your bed for reading and catching your nightmares!

Doability:

Taking into account we only had 5 lessons to complete our product, I found this video on how to create a easy dreamcatcher,

Materials:

  • feathers (white or brown)
  • suede lace
  • metal ring
  • wire

Taking into I found this video on how to make a DIY dreamcatcher, it seems easy enough and shouldn’t take too long to make.
