Start-up project. Research and Drawings

This is a first project this year. It's based on packaging and will be carried on for 8 weeks. We were asked to produce a small batch by reproducing a piece or a module and then altering it or changing it somehow. The main form should remain the same. To do so we have to use different techniques then in our previous work. It is the 3rd week of the project and so far I have done research on packaging and some models. I hope to start my clay work this week. My inspiration for this project are plastic bottles :) Here are some photos : I first started looking at different types of packaging like pills slips, contact lanses containers, inhalers etc.  Next group of objects that caught my attention were plastic bottles.  I have noticed that mineral water bottles don't only have different shapes but the bottoms vary as well. I then 'translated' them into quilted plastic discs. I will add some more photos soon. :)
