FINAL CONCEPT:

MUSIC COMMUNICATION : DIY MUSIC BOX









































A set of music boxes with 3 different songs + 3 diff inputs (melody strips) - 3 diff messages I want to say.


WHY?

1. I have mentioned mum loves music, music can ease her sensitive emotion.

2. I always think music box is a sweet and warm product for your special one (normally for female), it can be touching and make the receiver think of the memory between you and her.

3. it's handy, it can be placed on mum's make up desk, a corner of the dinning room/table or even in bathroom or kitchen. Also, I think the hand crank always attracts people to play with.

4. This kind of DIY music box can show my deep feelings with my designs on the melody strips and my own selected music for mum. When mum inserted my messages (strips), music comes out through the box. I wish she can read and understand my feelings with a calm and soothing emotion. This is the most crucial point I would like to reach in this project. I am sure mum cant buy this designer product anywhere else on the street, it is an unique art piece for me and my mum.




3 Main Messages for mum :

a) I suggest you to listen music more often than you do, as I guess it is the most effective way to ease your sensitive emotion and stay calm when we come to any disagreement.

b) I desire so much for freedom and space between us. You may think I 'm not mature to cope with problems and may go wrong easily on everything. However, success comes from failure. I would love to manage any big issue and experience any failure. I am sure more freedom comes with closer relationship.

c) I want to tell that I love you no matter what happens. I am still the tiny Ying Ying in those old pictures. I never forget the love you gave me these 22 years. Love stays still forever.



Possible Branding ?























Actually im thinking should I do engraving on the music boxes (metal) and insert these graphic branding typefaces on each beginning part of the melody strips
