  1. Hi Ping!! I love the bone like appearance of your salad tongs. They also look a lot like flowers, which is great imagery when designing something for serving salad. I really like the shape of the handle with its lovely curves, maybe one point for improvement would be making the teeth of the tool smaller. But other than that I really like your work.

  2. Hi, I like the form of your salad tongs and the way that they sit sculpturally when placed on the dining table or other surface. It looks appealing, but from your poster and the way in which it sits in your hand, the handles appear too large. For something as delicate as a salad, maybe a little more refinement would have been better, though still maintaining the overall sculptural form.

  3. The salad tongs are shaped like shells or just a really appealing shape to me. It would be a awesome salad tong just too comfort to look at, maybe the use of colour will be more attractive while for use.

  5. The shape of your salad tony is creative for me, seems its original. Color choice and the arrange of the poster also quite good as well. However, I think that the size of the salad tony might be a little too big, because it look a bit hard to control in hand on the photos of story board, as the big front part of salad tony, I think it should not be too big, or it will be hard to use for small hand.
