Brainstorm Session

For getting some inspiration we did a brainstorm session with Micky. The day before I've went to the beach to do some inspiration myself and I found some shells that might come in handy to use as materials.

Taking a look in my environment

At first we had to look around in our room and to sketch what we see.

Mind maps

Secondly for each theme I came with some idea's and put it in a mind map. Afterwards in duo's we had to show what we had and put the idea's together.
