The Shiny Elephants Design Process | August 2020 Newsletter

Writer: Emily PlattEmily Platt

The S.E. Design Process


This month Shiny Elephants explored the product design process. We started with Inspiration, and learned about some hand-painted wooden ornaments that served as a spark for the Holiday 2020 Collection. Then we looked at Ideation, and glimpsed some watercolors and sketches - playful studies of the original muse.


What strikes your fancy?


Now we are on to the interactive phase of User Feedback! To kick off this very important next step, Shiny Elephants conducted its first user feedback activity! It was a terrific learning experience. We put forward four distinct color combinations for our Woodland Bird pattern online and asked you to vote on your favorite. From the four patterns presented, we ended up with not one, but two winners! Thanks to all our participants! We hear you loud and clear and will keep your favorites in mind as we finalize our color palette for our Holiday launch. Please click the link below in order to participate!



But why stop there?


While it is true that we create products that bring us joy, it is equally true that we are designing for you! We aim to bring you tabletop products that meet your needs and spark your imagination! That is why we want to hear from you! Please take a few minutes to complete this quick questionnaire. With your help, we will tailor our designs to better suit your lifestyle.

A word from Emily...


Thank you for your involvement in Shiny Elephants! Product design has been a long time passion of mine, and I consider myself beyond lucky to have your attention and support as I get this dream business off the ground.
