The egg holder must be able to be placed on a horizontal surface
It must be able to hold at least two eggs
It must be visually appealing
The design ideas of the egg holder must incorporate its use

7. What constraints (limits) must we work on in this project in relation to…
Size and proportion?
Sustainability?
Skills ?
Cost?
Materials?
Time?

8. Research and investigation:
Research and investigation is completed to gain
information and knowledge on possible solutions to the design problem. This information and knowledge will help you to develop ides for your own design.
Lets take a look at some images related to our brief…
