Having an awareness of current designer makers and visiting shops, galleries and trade shows is essential in identifying with designer maker products.
Analysing and focusing on the quality of the design and product will enable you not only to gain more confidence but also give you a clearer understanding of that particular product and in turn potential selling opportunities!
Visual Research
Visit exhibitions, museums
collecting found objects from a range of places such as car boot sales, flea markets, thrift shops, vintage fairs, beaches, forests etc..
This is just as important as collecting research from libraries and the internet
Collecting photocopies from magazines and journals is not always sufficient in extending ideas into development more in depth research is necessary!
