identify 3 designs around you that have a combination of creativity, integrity and quality.

1. public urinal to reduce public urination.

i think it’s innovative how it emerges in the night during happy hours when people are out partying and drinking and thus having a lot of pee. during the day it retracts back into the ground so the pathway is cleared for vehicles and people.

2. two way toothpaste.

most people get tired of squeezing out toothpaste from the other end once it’s finishing. with this concept, life would be easier.

3. finger-pointing bookmark to show exactly which line you read last.

i feel this is quite creative as sometimes people forget which line they’ve stopped reading from, with this, it points out exactly where the readers last stopped.
