Hello,
Im a student studying at Southampton University for a degree in Product
Design and for my final project I am loooking into the design of garden
sheds. My aim is to produce a new product that is styled to fit in with
the modern garden design currently becoming popular.
To understand exactly what I need to incorporate into my design to
create a successful product I was hoping some keen gardeners would take
the time to fill out a questionairre for me. I would be truly greatfull
and it would help a great deal.
Thankyou very much
Chris
