Each week I let you in on some of the best the web has to offer with regards to the inventing world.
If you have or know of a site that should be featured in next weeks article Contact Us and we’ll take a look.
Core77
This site has two main sections of interest, the articles and the forum.
For me the best part of the site has to be the 1 hour design challenge. The premise is simple,
- The Core77 team set out a brief, in that brief they will detail a problem or subject for design
- We (the audience) then set about designing our ideas according to that brief, we design what ever we can within one hour.
- We then share our idea on the forum alongside ideas other people have had.
- This then opens up a debate about what design is best and what it truly possible. It’s a great way to get your head into problem solving mode.
Here’s an example of the challenge they set for a theft proof bike.
