My object of choice was the electric toothbrush. I thought about ways to change each part of the object. Making the handle wider, changing the brush, so it would be faster to clean the teeth. Then I thought about storage and made a travel-size toothbrush and a laying one, that would fit in a drawer.

I decided to continue evolving the U-shaped brush design because it was the most innovative idea. First I made the connection part to the handle shorter. I followed one idea, where the shape was just half of the U, so it would fit for all jaw sizes. But I preferred the idea of making different shapes for the brush-attachment.
