7.1 The name
PENDURADINHO
The name is in Portuguese and it's a pun.
Pendurado = dangling
Estou pendurado. - I'm broke.
I wanted an artifact that would be affordable to everyone even if you are broken.
In Brazil diminutives are very commonly used in informal language and I thought that it would be a nice informal way to talk to consumers.

7.3 Some flash back
PROBLEM STATEMENT
How to store belts liberating space in drawers, hangers and making them easy to see and find.
PRIMARY NEEDS
7.4 Next steps
First I'll make 10 "penduradinhos" and give away to people to have their feedback on a long term use.
After collecting the feedback I'll see if it's worth it or not to try to sell it in a large scale.
The course
As I'm coming back to the object design branch it was very helpfull for me to review and learn on the process of create an artifact.
Thanks to professor Ulrich for sharing his knowledge with us and thanks to all the TAs that made of this course a very pleasant journey.
Hope to have the second part as soon as possible!
Here you can see the evolution of the project from week one to now, the result of method and very important, empathy.
