Mechanical solutions and production methods was a bit tricky for me as the subject was a complete new area that I wasn't familiar with. I had to get lots of information from engineers and experts.
Research: Literature review, observational studies and focus groups made to support the design process. Literature review data is documented in research documents submitted.

Her love relation with her plants was very inspirational for me. She actually been a part of the project by participating to research process.
