Summary
This is the design project for developing the local toy (carton pierre) handed down by the Aizu district for many years as new goods. This report describes three viewpoints of “design research”, “design work”, and “production”.
By design research, while we observe the practicality and the trend of carton pierre, it has been decided that “a present-day young woman is cured” as design concept.
The design work was completed in the new way of thinking of dressing with wool without carrying out a painting, as a result of applying a trial-and-error method. The sheep which symbolizes 2015 was selected as a subject matter on account of sale.
Finally in the production after trial, “Fuwamoco Sheep” was commercialized as new carton pierre, while productivity are improved.
