Conclusion
While working on this project I learned to really trust the research and discovery process as I started working on it with a very different assumption and initial idea on how to solve the problem. In the end I needed to satisfy different user need, that wasn't in fact the chaotic plant exchange culture, but the decisions user make in the first place. I learned to not get too hung up on the solution and be flexible with the ways of solving the problem. It's great to have the general ideas and inspirations - the process of the idea evolution can take us much further. Creating a virtual marketplace (the original idea) can be developed down the road with more time and resources. I believe that minimizing poor shopping decisions in the end is fixing the problem at the core.
