Read through some of my process books here, they're pretty cool.

Hands-on

Typically involves activities or tasks that require direct physical interaction, manipulation, or practical work.

User Experience

Typically about optimizing interactions between users and systems with intuitive usability throughout the design process.

Digital Modelling

Typically involves the creation and manipulation of virtual representations using computer software.

Sustainability

Typically about integrating environmental, social, and economic considerations into design and implementation.

Fixperts

My fixpartner and I tackled a Fixperts project where we designed a custom device for someone with a deviated septum. We researched, conducted interviews, 3D scanned her nose using molds, modeled the device, 3D printed it, and tested it. The whole process was documented in a video!

Hands-on
User Interface Project

Redesigned an airplane website's booking process with wireframes in Adobe XD. Compared to better UI design, conducted interviews on usability and created a live version of the new booking process.

Tidal Turbine Redesign with Biomimicry

I undertook the design of a novel tidal turbine inspired by principles of bio-inspired soft robotics. The central idea revolves around creating a turbine structure that mimics the fluidity and net-like characteristics found in nature.

Design for Manufacture

Designing an earphone case in Solidworks that can be injection moulded. Studied the principles of injection moulding and other earphone cases, ideation to design and modelled with all working drawings included.

Digital Modelling
Advanced Modelling of Form

Worked in a 'house' design style, where other team members needed to match the team's design. Goal was to create unique forms based on the team's chosen concept but have them tie in unique features.

Hands-on
Design for Repair

Redesigned the Ferrex V12 Dremel for better repairability. Explored different concepts of Design for Repair, especially around legislation and ideated proposed ways to make the design easier to disassemble for replacement of parts.

Digital Modelling - Travel Bottle

Picked a chosen brand style to work with in designing a 100ml travel bottle. Brand study to ideation, then learned to model in software Blender, created renders, backdrop scenes and a short animation.

Digital Modelling
Keep Playing - Toy Box Service

This concept for a subscription toy box service aims to reimagine the function of toys by providing sustainable practices to eliminate the problems that we currently face in the toy industry around the world.
