These are some of my time piece ideation sketches. The left side of the page is initial ideation and the right is more of a refinement. The materials are marker and pen.
Design a Time piece off of a designers philosophy. Go. I picked Ross Lovegrove and for those of you who don’t know him he is worth every second of your time. He is an incredible inspirational and innovative designer. After the first 150 sketches I finally found the design I am going to finalize and I am pretty excited to make the finished working prototype. Ill upload a sketch as soon as I have time! Just picture…a sexy streamlined and in loose terms “sand” clock. For the mean time here is a little bit about my designer.
This is the final presentation for the lamp project that i worked on the first week. I’ll be updating with a post for my next project in a few days. All I will say now is I will be designing an object that “tells time” and I am extremely excited about it!
This is the project I just completed, and I finally created something that I really think is just representative of me: Fun, bright, and funky!
well that was a long and most needed summer break, but I am back at SCAD and already full on into my first project. I should be updated the blog shortly with the project guidelines, sketches, CAD models and a final prototype. And with Studio 1 this quarter there is sure to be a lot of stuff to post! Here’s to a great start to a new school year!
Just a fun little project I did for my CAD class!
Here are the final renderings I did for our kitchen presentation. The renderings accompanied the model giving more of a completed look and feel that we wanted to convey. This was My major contribution other than the construction as I was one of the few who could use the CAD and rendering software. It was completely modeled in Rhino 3D and rendered using Keyshot. The major struggle with the rendering was getting the interior lighting right. In order to get the brightness I wanted with out harsh shadows, I played around with emissive isoforms floating in the space. These allowed me to adjust the intensity and really accomplished the final lighting.
Working on getting interior lighting right for this kitchen rendering. It is a challenge but I am learning a lot about emissive materials in Keyshot and general things on what make a space and objects come to life from a simple CAD model. Here’s to a smooth finish and some great renderings!
building a kitchen out of foam core to scale in less than 2 weeks… my teams current challenge. We must design and build a full scale mock up of a residential kitchen using foam core, cardboard, glue, etc…. heres a look at a rendering of our kitchen design. 
The materials shown in this rendering are analogous to the materials we will be using in the actual mock-up. we wanted to get a visual for the building direction. Heres to a smooth construction!
Starting on my CAD Final. Its an open ended assignment allowing us to design and model anything we want in Autodesk Alias. I did some quick sketches in class and after drawing some more concept based worked decided to have a little fun with this project. So I will be designing a robot companion toaster for your kitchen. Should be an interesting end of the quarter!
