Last time I was speaking with my wife about an idea for a lamp, like a big bedside lamp I wanted to make and sell of course. I asked her should I add a hidden drawer, because why not ? And she asked if I studied the market for this kind of product. It made me wonder, do you study the market before selling an item ? Is it really necessary or couldn’t we just consider it like art and it doesn’t need a real use or function ?
