Analogical Thinking............

For this lesson, we were taught about analogical thinking. We were asked to walk around the school during lessons to look out for things that look like something. And so, here are 10 pictures i found while walking around with my classmates.

Is it me or does this looks like a penguin?

Well this is one of the school's locker actually.

Next this was taken in the lift. The eyes are the lights and overall i think it resembles a robot...maybe? 

This is an artwork found in the staircase. It was actually supposed to be a long pole artwork but i decided to crop it and it kinda look like an Owl.

Next we went outdoors and i found this part of the building. Don't this reminds you of a Whale? Hahaha the greyish black part of the wall would be the bottom mouth and the two lights are the eyes. 

We past by the graffiti wall area and we found one part of the artwork that resembles a sad face. The original artwork wasn't supposed to be an sad face. It was actually a king kong's nose. But we took a close up picture and so, a sad face appears.

Next, this is part of a chair that resembles a frog/tadpole. The hexagons at the top are the eyes and the squarish hole at the bottom is the mouth. Funny looking isn't it?

This is one of the picture that I'm very satisfied with. It really resembles a bird. Woodpecker/parrot maybe? 

Hmmm this is not really accurate but it looks like a rabbit head to me hahaha

the dust around it makes it looks like fur too. This was found in the vending machine though.

This totally looks like a Crow!!!!! It's a fire extinguisher. The beak would be the yellow part. The eyes would be the screw and the head would be the black handle part.

This is just a random locker outside the classroom. It resembles a cartoon face. Maybe a frog. With the Locks as the eyes. and the yellow part the mouth.

I gave up after looking for 9 pictures because it was kinda hard to find stuff that looks like "something". But guess what, the 10th picture was found when we opened our iPads, looked at the cover and realised that it actually resembles a face. Two holes as eyes and 3 lines as mouth. Haha. 

What i've learnt was unexpectedly great that day, which is to think and imagine more creatively because to be honest those pictures aren't realistic looking. Mostly just resembles a cartoonish face/animal. And also as designers I've learnt that we may not always get ideas from the net or other passage. More of the inspirations come from real life examples and are a great source of help if you look around yourselves!
