Problem Framing
I started by raising a question about what it feels like to use a peeler with non-dominant hand. I want to consider the limits and barriers of using a peeler that is currently on the market.  Then, I researched the effect of users with physical impairments, which helped me define what I needed to focus on with my design explorations.

making moodboard helps me establish aesthetic feel during my design process. By experimenting with facets of a design, I established the baselines that guide my design process.

Ideation

  1. How to design a peeler that ensure good grip and fits comfortably in hands

  2. How to design a peeler that promotes inviting appearance with ergonomic forms.

The goal during sketching process is to develop forms that will fit effortlessly and comfortably in hands with limited mobility. Forms that will maximize precision, allowing a controlled motion instead of a striking motion.
