Think about all of the different aspects that go into mindmapping, i.e. exploring all opportunities in terms of design, market, end user, user scenarios, modes/habits, current/future cleaning trends, materials etc. Start throwing out ideas and remember, this is a brainstorm so anything goes.

    Since they’ve got their hands full (of sharpies and sketch paper and stuff), at this point we’re not planning on doing a regular Wednesday brainstorm session.

    Instead, get involved with the fun happening at Bed Bath & Beyond. You can find all of the details right here.
