Evaluation of Product | Clock Evaluation

This is the finalized design, chosen by my client to re-create as my final product. I agree with his decision as well and think that he chose the best design. In the following paragraphs, I will discuss the positives, negatives, and possible improvements I can make to this clock.

In brief, I believe that this clock is successful because of its creativeness and positive aesthetic design. I did not want a simple, standard, generic-looking clock because those are uninteresting to look at and not very eye-catching. Therefore, I decided to construct a clock that relates to my client's passion for cooking. The creativeness alone is a selling point in my eyes because if the clock is attractive, the user will look at it more often. When the user looks at the clock more often, they will keep track of their time more effectively, which was the whole purpose of my clock in the first place: for my client to be able to look at the clock and keep track of his own time to make sure that he is on time for his new job. I have received feedback stating that my audience likes the color of the clock, and the implementation of the fork, knife, and spoon were a nice touch. They also like how this clock is kitchen-themed. Another positive to this design is its size. It is big enough to be seen from a short and middle distance, but it is not too

large it takes up too much space on his kitchen wall. I followed the specification for the size, and my clock now hangs 220mm x 220mm. Although it possesses these positive qualities, my clock has a few negatives as well.

I believe that this clock has a few negative points to it. First of all, as many people told me during the "Testing" phase, the clock needs to be easier to read. They say I should have implemented the numbers 3, 6, 9, and 12 to ensure that the user would just have to quickly glance at the clock to know the time immediately, and I agree with this feedback. Another negative one person noticed was the dark brown color looks depressing and I should consider adding a lighter brown color for the pizza platter instead. The final negative I can notice is the slight crookedness of the clock. I feel as though that the spoon is located higher than the fork, even though they are supposed to be perfectly horizontal, and represent the 3 and 9.

Overall, I believe that this is a very successful final product that my target market will approve of. There are both positives and negatives to this clock, which will be improved upon by implementing the possible improvements suggested on the "Improvements" page.
