1. Facilitate the reason and cause of hoarding to prevent it. Such as introducing an object that can fulfill the needs of the person that cause the hoarding. I need to look at the underlying issues that start hoarding.
Homeless people have dogs, one reason why is to have something to look after. Henny talked about a robot dog that was given to old people to look after it showed that they enjoyed having the dog. Something that could help fill the issue.
What about swapping opposite roles to see if it takes affect. Such as the programme supersize versus superskinny. Design a space for someone to use.
2. When an event happens it may stop the hoarding. "My housemate got a girlfriend and stopped hoarding". Look at why a hoarder hoards.
Do I want to have an aesthetic approach or a therapeutic approach? What kind of approach shall i take? Usually my work makes a critical response to the subject matter, it is somewhat difficult in this case as it is not easy to have my own opinion about compulsive hoarding. I am not the sufferer, I would need to create empathy. Be sensitive to other people.
3. The chair that prompts accumulation encourages hoarding. The more items compressed the more likely you are to hoard more. Make and finish this idea. It just encourages the illness.
4. Do i design for a specific hoarder? As various hoarders have different reasons for hoarding.
5. Addictions are used to escape from problems people don't want to confront.
6. If you go into the subject you have to be prepared to answer it.
7. Apply "the potential of a candle idea" to the project and the process.
8. Nadine Jarvis work suggests that there are solutions.
9. Create space for the hoarders to deal with her loss. Create objects for her to create an escape. Design a really nice object that she can turn to such as a monument or piece of jewelery.
