DING3000 P RODUCT DESIGN Industrial designers at DING3000 started out with a sketch while debating whether to use stainless steel or plastic. They opted for plastic but they wanted to give these ordinary utensils a unique look and usefulness.

T HE P ROCESS Once designers made up their mind over the design of the product, production of the prototype. The design had to be tested before production of the final product began. The designers chose plastic because it was more comfortable to use. Blades and how comfortable the utensils were when used were tested before the final production could begin.

F INAL P RODUCT Once the product is finished testing and the product is approved, molds are made for mass production to occur. This can be used as utensils and as decoration making it a stylish and useful item.
