Human Behavior
Through my observation and some interviews with my friends,
I find that when people brush their teeth, they would fill the cup
with clean water no matter how big the cup is. Actually most of
the water is used to clean the toothbrush, which is definitely a
waste of water.
Environmental Background
The environment has always been the most popular topic.
As a limited resource, water should be valued.

Currently there are 2768 non-governmental environmental organizations of all kinds in China,
and the total number of employees is 224 thousand. Among which there are 69 thousand
full-time personnel and 155 thousand part-timers. These organizations have many outstanding
features such as rejuvenation of employees, higher academic degree, strong dedication, and
wide influence. About 80 percent of employees are young people under the age of 30, and over
50 percent of them have University degree or equivalent. What's more, 91.7 percent of these
volunteers are not expecting any reward when participating in the environmental activities.

Establishing of Levi’s
In 1853, to clear off the backlog of canvas, Jewish young businessman Levi Strauss tried to
make a batch of jeans which were low-rise, straight-legslacks, and tight hip circumference.
These jeans were sold to the rifflemen in San Francisco. Surprisingly, this kind of jeans had
a great vogue as they were more endurable than genes. Hence, Levi opened a company
specialized in the production of canvas overalls, and used his name Levi's as the brand.
This was when the Levi's legend began.
Cultural sign
The 19th century gold rush made the United States become a paradise for the rifflemen, which
also helped America achieve its economic lift-off, created the American culture of aspiration,
levity and freedom. This was very different from the blue-blood European culture which focused
on delicacy and magnificence. Those Levi's jeans designed for the unruly riffemen, became the
most direct expression of longing for freedom, independence
and ideal. Hence from a certain angle, the Levi's jeans had
already become a symbol of life attitude as they emerged, and
then became the watershed between American style and
European culture.
In people's heart, the Levi's Jeans which have been sold more
than 3.5 billion pairs are not only the leader of fashion trend,
but also a typical representative of American spirit, which has
symbolic significance of
appeal and so on.

research characteristic
Since LS & CO had started to manufacture the first pair of jeans, the
black pocket was sewed with unique double arc. The double arc was
America's oldest clothing mark. Before automation was invented,
all the double arcs had to be sewed by hand.
The red flag which was
first added to the back
pocket became the
earliest brand tag. It
made the Levi's more
recognizable, and had
spawned many imitators
on other jeans brands.
Attaching metal nails into the
top left and right corners made
Levi's jeans even more popular
as it broke the traditional style.
The metal nails of Levi's Type 1
TM jeans were particularly
magnified ,which brought
people with much stronger
feeling.

Meanwhile, it makes the product environmental friendly.

25. inspiration
origin
There is an old saying that goes: “An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening.”
Yet the first thing in the morning is to get up, which is extremely painful for most people.
And this is why I want to design an alarm clock that can wake up people naturally..

Seven good methods to
ease the pain of getting up
It is of great importance to go to bed at regular time. If you can't make it, then just try to get up on time. The actual sleep
rhythm would coincide with your biological rhythm with six weeks, “the regular pattern is very significant to set biological
clock,” Muth, a professor of psychology from Cornell University believed so.
In the morning after human body feels the sun light, the melatonin secretion inside human body declines, and the serotonin
secretion increases. Hence the body metabolism start to speed up, and each body part gradually goes thorough a transition
from heavy to light sleep till the whole body wakes up.
Have you ever found that it is very easy for you to hit the snooze button? This is because your brain has got use to ignore
acquainted sound. Hence, you can take turns using two or three alarm clocks, or you can utilize the music to wake you up
romantically as music can stimulates the flow of oxygen in the brain as well as blood, simultaneously, it can vitalize your body.
After waking up, taking a deep breath can relax your body for an entire day. Inhale slowly at first, as if to breathe in above
your head, and then breathe out. Stay there for two seconds and do it again. This can let your body filled with fresh air in
the morning, and make your day in fine fettle.
Find some water right away once you wake up. This will inform your body of the beginning of a brand new day. Human bodies
would sweat as much as the quantity of a cup of water. Drinking wines the night before will make your body feel at the desert.
So grab some water first, and go to the bathroom afterwards will make your body feel cozy.
The fragrance will stimulate your brain as well. It can improve the function of your consciousness, and drive away your
drowsiness and fatigue.

point lies in its form of inflation which can effectively reduce transportation costs. Meanwhile
the material change from glass to plastics can reduce the production weights. As for the users,
this change can make it easier for them to carry. In addition, it won't be as fragile as glassware
and can extend the service life. Moreover, it's concise style is suitable for all kinds of indoor
environment in use.

In childhood memory, we always looked through
the soda bottle, which feels fun. “Bottle-telescope”
is not only a soft drink bottle, but also a simple
telescope. The convex heavy sheet glass on the
bottom serves as convex lens, and the concave
transparent soft on the lid can serve as concave
lens. In this way it looks just like a telescope, which
can also reminds of that memory after drinking up
the soda.
