RESEARCH

Survey

Based off my research findings, I conducted a survey of 18 questions with 29 anonymous people who collect.

This survey helped me realize the best approach for my design solution. I wanted to address the issue that not all collectors seem to have access to a good way of cataloging and sharing their collections in a social aspect. That is when I decided to create an app for collectors.

RESEARCH

Categorizing Key Words

After all of the research I did, I took key words from my findings and organized them into three separate narrative paths that would explain why collecting is important through personal (internal), external, social, and scientific ways.
