Cansu Akarsu starts with a blank slate when she begins a design. Banishing your brain’s preconceived notions of what a pencil case looks like, she says, allows you to create a mind-bendingly new way to store a pencil. Akarsu has brought her talent for holistic and playful problem solving to the field of philanthropic design. In this video she invites you to closer your eyes, imagine you are nine years old, and think about soap as you never have before!
Cansu Akarsu is an award winning design student from Istanbul.
