1. Shape Borrowing

A random object can inspire the shape of another object, through a technique like force fitting. Take for instance, the shape of an elephant can be used for the shape of a pencil holder. Or maybe the shape of a mushroom can become the shape of a light bulb. Thus, the final product of the item would look quite innovative.
