1) When i visited Target i was wondering what artifact can i find to take a picture of, the first that really stood out for me are the books. I didn't Target was selling books too, they all kinds of books starting from history and ending in healthy human lifestyle. For the consumerism part Target did a great job by just selling books because it will just bring them more money, also for the idea that people don't always have to go to the bookstore to buy a book they may find the same book in Target for cheaper price. As for design features, as you can see the books i am standing next are all for women so they are mainly for women but they did have books for guys too.
2) Target had some UK gear as well and surprising this is how much they only had. UK blue is everywhere and Target i think does a good job by advertising new UK gear that's not really expensive at all. For consumerism, since this city is know because of our school and basketball team Target sells the t-shirts because they represent our whole city. As for design, like i talked previously the color of blue represents our city and the picture below has mostly blue in it. The t-shirts are designed to look the same and what i mean by that is the UK logo is always on the front.
3) I was surprised when i learned that target is selling cellphones like iPhone and giving our careers. The iPhone is an Apple made product so for to be sold at the Target shows how big the store Target has become not only clothing wise but electronically. Right now every second person in this world has an iPhone they say and for to be sold at a store like Target shows that anybody can get an iPhone these days you just have to work for it and that was the consumerism part. As for design, iPhone design to be easy to use and easy to carry around, simplicity is beautiful.
4) I decided to take a picture of a Target had cart because it tells a lot about the store it self. The hand cart is red because the Target color is red and it represents many other things to it. The logo of Target in front of the hand cart represents that this thing belongs to this store. The hand carts are designed for people that aren't going to buy whole lot of stuff when they visit the store, so it can be use for quick shopping. For consumerism this hand carts of Target have contributed a lot to their economy because they made the process of shopping faster and safer. As for design the hand cart is designed to be light and easy to carry with a handle.
5) Lastly i took a picture of some headphones, they are not regular they are all made by the company called beats by dr. drey. As you can see those headphones are not very usual and you cant find them at any store. But when i sow these at Target i was surprised because those beats cost a lot and for a store like Target to be selling them makes me want to do all my shopping there. For consumerism these headphones have a big name, the rapper Dr. Drey is the one who came up with them and every young adult in this society wants one of those because of their name. As for design those headphones are designed to prevent the outside noise get mixed with the music.
