Executive Summary

Research and Observations

We have been tasked to identify a new opportunity in the domain of the ceiling-mounted bicycle lift and develop new product design recommendations to improve and expand your product line. As we stated in our previous report, we feel that the product has been designed very well and that it fulfills its intent to use the commonly unused space directly below a ceiling for storage. However, this product is severely limited to only being able to store one bicycle. We feel that you will be able to improve and expand your product line by producing new products that can store many other items in the space directly below a ceiling. The Team A Research Documentation page shows pictures of storage places that we have taken during our research and the results from a survey we have taken to determine what items may be stored by a ceiling mounted device.


Concept Generation

We held a brainstorming session as a group to develop as many storage solutions as possible. Our ideas were focused on using a the space below a ceiling for storage. Our list of ideas can be seen on the Team A Brainstorming Documentation page. We voted on the ideas to narrow them down and develop a few strong concepts.
