FINAL ASSIGNMENT – MIND MAPS AND ESSAYS

Object – Snuff Bottles
Discipline – Product Design
Object – Punch Marked Coins
Discipline – Strategic Design and Management
I started with the introduction of the bottles – use, origin, time period.
I then explain the design on the bottles – materials, colours, process.
Concluded the essay with the symbolism each design on the bottle depicted.
I started the essay with the introduction of the coins – their origin, time period they were used in, regions they were circulated to.
I then moved on to their design – shapes, inscriptions.
Punch Marked coins were famous for their excellence in maintaining the weight standards.
This object was chosen for Strategic Design and Management discipline because there was strategy in their design – about how many inscriptions to be designed on a particular weight of the coin. Also, there was a strategy behind circulating the coins across the world. It was done based on the number of symbols on the coin, weight of the coin, and area it is being circulated in.
