IDEO Video

I enjoyed watching this video. I liked how the large groups split up into smaller ones to solve the same problem and then came together in the end to create a final product. I also liked the environment that IDEO created (or rather the employees created for themselves) for there employees to work. It was a creative environment that can spark creative ideas that could lead to something great. I also enjoyed how they didn't discourage unfathomable ideas, but built on them to make them possible. Overall the video inspired me to recreate this horribly designed potato peeler to the best of my ability and use my team mates to bring all of our ideas together and creat the best design possible. The video stated that the oldest person in the room is not always going to be the leader. This theory is a well received one because in most companies thats how it works. I liked how it differs in IDEO. My favorite quote form the video was "the only thing that doesn't need to be designed is nature", I like it because it is a very pure and true statement. All in all i really enjoyed the video and it inspired me to do my best.
