we've mainly focused on making things look very pretty,

and a little bit of touch,

which means we've ignored the other three senses.

Chris's clock shows us that even raising just one

of those other senses can make for a brilliant product.

So what if we started using the five senses theory

in all of our designs?

Here's three quick ideas I came up with.

This is an iron, you know, for your clothes,

to which I added a spraying mechanism,

so you fill up the vial with your favorite scent,

and your clothes will smell nicer,

but hopefully it should also make

the ironing experience more enjoyable.

We could call this "the perfumator."

All right, next.

So I brush my teeth twice a day,

and what if we had a toothbrush

that tastes like candy,

and when the taste of candy ran out,

you'd know it's time to change your toothbrush?
