For this project we were tasked to design a house hold product in the style of either industrial or organic. Here were some designs that interested me for this project.
Visual Language: Iron Project - My model didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it to turn out but here is the process of how it was made. My design started off with inspiration from a game which had a device which was a gun in it called a portal gun. It’s strange shape which gave me inspiration. I created blue foam model and cardboard models which then served shapes to chemical mood models. These were all hand carved which I put a lot of effort into. I was disappointed when my model didn't turn out how I designed it.
For a personal project, I decided to rework this design from my second year into something which was visually more appealing than the one I had designed before.
Here is the end result. I used Sketchbook pro to update the iron aesthetics and give it a slick, fresh, stylist design.
