Accordion Cart Use - In an effort to innovate and improve upon urban modes of transporting goods, an extensive investigation of "granny" carts was undertaken. I gathered market research, observations and user and non-user interviews to reveal design opportunities. Ideations were prototyped and tested to find a final solution.

Design Opportunities - Icons were created to easily identify design opportunities and needs as they appeared.
Iterations - Iterative brainstorming was done for each of the design opportunities.
Prototype Feedback - Scale prototypes were created to elicit user feedback.
