I kept some yogurt's lids and tried to animate on them. I made 17 frames and I am quite satisfied with the result

We came to a breakthrough when we combined the bristol paper with the aluminum foil. The thick paper provided the spoon with much needed structure.
One of the other class groups redesigned the actual yogurt product and added different toppings for more cultural value. They started with Fage yogurt which has a “split cup” design. This got some of us thinking - what if the “separator” in the container could be pulled out and converted into a spoon? I created some quick concept sketches shown above from this idea.
Final Design
-Chobani’s brand values fit the design.
-Easy for Chobani to implement as the same shape of the lid & yogurt is kept - only new material is added.
-Provides an enjoyable experience as users no longer need to worry about finding a spoon.
-Users are “guilt free” as they create less waste when eating yogurt.
-More sustainable for the environment; less plastic spoons are used/thrown away.
After prototype iterations, we came up with three final designs. Our final presentation ended in a workshop that allowed students and faculty to try our spoons out!
We instructed users to eat yogurt using only the lid. After observing their actions and taking notes, we went back to prototyping.
24 Hour Design Sprint!
Our class was given the prompt to “redesign the yogurt experience” in 24 hours. Our group of four students decided to tackle the experience of eating yogurt. We aimed to redesign the yogurt lid to convert to a spoon. This is an easy, sustainable solution that decreases waste and allows users to eat yogurt on the go! After creating some prototypes, we went to the cafe to conduct a workshop & some interviews.
