We seem to spend the majority of our time in square environments filled with 90 degree right angles. A standard room in a typical live/work structure is designed with walls joined together at 90 degree angles (ie. a square room with 4 walls). I once heard of a study which found that people tend to feel more 'creative' and relaxed in curvilinear or 'natural' environments. It makes sense to me that 'we' as creative 'beings' would function better in environments that would better support our inherent nature.I propose a floor to ceiling rounded (concave) 'corner insert' for the home or office transforming ones interior space into a 'softer' more creative environment. People would install the 'Room Rounder' after market without the help of a contractor.Reward: credit

To develop a plastic device to sit over a finger that enables people with a disability to write more easily or for chidren/artists to use in a creative way. The device would consist of a ball or nib protrubing from the tip of the finger with an enclosed inner well or wick of coloured ink/paint located under the finger. Children could wear pens on all fingers for a new form of finger-painting. Students could use them to underline key points while studying; bingo players and office workers would also find a use for the idea.
