Interviews
Design Interview
What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?
It may have happened to all of us that we want to draw a certain shape, table, chart or font on a piece of paper that is difficult or time consuming for us to draw. Sometimes it may even be very different from what we guessed or expected because of our inability to put it on paper, or after drawing the elements on paper and seeing the reality of what we had in mind, we were not satisfied with our layout and came to the conclusion that I wish I had used a different layout. My main idea starts here. First, select the elements on the Doodlight mobile app page which is the same as paper proportions. Then you can connect the mobile Bluetooth to Doodlight and transfer it to the product. Now Doodlight uses a laser to display your design on the desired paper and you can see your design on paper and in real dimensions. If you are satisfied with your layout, all you have to do is pick up your pen and start drawing lines by following the laser lights on the paper. When done, you have the design ready and it is exactly the same as what you had in mind!
What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?
In addition to the concept, the performance and beauty of the product has been very important to me. The product is too small to carry with you. In terms of form design, Doodlight has the character to convey the feeling I have in mind: "Doodlight is a little friend who is always with your journal."
What are your future plans for this award winning design?
Bring Doodlight to mass production.

- Design Challenge
- An important challenge in using a journal bulletin is to solve problems and difficulties while designing its pages. With this product, you can more easily manage journal design. You can design faster and with the same quality you want. You can edit the designed journal many times before drawing on paper. Another challenge was trying to shrink the product as much as possible so that the user could easily carry it with her/his bullet journal.
- Research
- In today's digital world, time management with new methods is very important because it is faster and more complete. Bullet Journal is also used for planning. According to my research, in some cases there may be a problem while designing bullet journal pages, drawing shapes, different fonts, page layout and so on. Sometimes it takes a long time to design a page. Sometimes it is necessary to draw with a pencil and then use a marker or pen to highlight the correct lines. The research eventually led to the design of the Doodlight.
- Inspiration
- "Track the past, order the present, and design your future."
