Wei Jing, Xiao Xuan & Claudia | UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF OLIVER LEE

RECIPE BOOK
How would you imagine measuring tools to look like in the world of no numbers?
The ratio template is integrated with instructions on the sides, allowing simple visuals for users to reference easily. Then, measure out your ingredients and place them into the ratio template.
Timer
Without numbers, how could we tell time?
One unique method we discovered is using ball bearings. The duration for them to stop spinning varies based on their size and weight.
PACKAGING
Additionally, different foods have varying shelf lives.
Through our research and experimentation, we discovered that metals react differently with various liquids, such as water, saltwater, and vinegar. We incorporated this observation into our design to visually represent the passage of time.
