- Describe:I wanted to improve the average shower head. I think the way the water comes out is inefficient and really boring. So i added some other features that would make the showering experience a lot more relaxing.I added a large slit where water would fall out like a blanket. I hate how the average shower head is too small and it takes to long for it warm up the entire bathroom. I also added mist to the top so that when you are sick you can use the humid environment of the shower to ease your sinuses. I also added easier controls. I hate how the shower is hard to turn on with the lever/faucet thing, so I made a dial pad on the top that had motion sensor controls. Last but not least the shower could turn easily into a bath tub with sliding barriers and an automatic closing drain so that you wouldn't have to manually stop the drain with a rubber stopper.
- Analyze: The process to make this wouldn't be very difficult because all of these technologies have been created they just haven't been implemented in the shower yet.
- Apply: Showers are boring and haven't been improved upon for many many years. It is definitely something that could be improved on now to make a more relaxing environment.
- Associate: It reminds me of something from the future, something that needed to be made more pleasing and relaxing.
- Compare: This shower head might be similar to something very futuristic. I would really like to have something like this at my house because I like to take really long showers.
- Arguments: It wastes a lot of water, I got this comment in my critiques.

Your design does sound like it would turn the bathroom into a mini spa. What is the ultimate function of the shower head, and how does your design help meet the form follows function method?
