TC1000: Moby 2.0

We presented Moby 2.0 at Modo and everything went very well. Our presentation reflected the friendly and playful aspects of our cart. Thanks to Modo for sponsoring our senior design studio project, and for giving great feedback in both conceptual development, as well as design direction.

Moby 2.0!

TC1000: Moby 2.0

After our final review, we realized that Moby could be smoother and livelier. So we’ve been spending time creating Moby 2.0.

Moby has been stripped, sanded, replastered, and sanded some more. The arm was also fixed because it developed a crack on the way over to the presentation room. We’ve also resolved the joint issue and refined the overall shape a little bit more. The docking station was also refined to make the visual language blend all together into a cohesive product.

Lots of work, but we’re happy with where we’re heading now and the process is easier the second time around!

We still need to paint, add the dots, and finalize our presentation to Modo. More images to come!

TOOLS: Final Review

Today was my final review for TOOLS class – presenting the last terms worth of products! As you know, I’ve been working on ceramic candlesticks, a furniture piece to display the work, and also a sheet metal lamp.

Here are the final pieces!

Piggy Toy Chest at MODERN

Piggy toy chest will be featured at Modern in Eugene, Oregon for the Artwalk! It’s taking place on Friday, June 4th at 5:30PM.

New to the School of Architecture and Allied Arts, the Product Design Program has joined forces with MODERN to introduce design in various forms.  The Product Design Program provides a thorough grounding in the use, invention, and production of manufactured goods and is based in the history and practice of interior architecture, design, and visual arts disciplines. Students study both material and theoretical aspects of product design, manufacturing, and design research.  In this exhibit, students focus on “flat pack” design in which marketable products are presented in flat or modular formats.  The designs presented include lighting, furniture, and even toys.  Student designers and university faculty will be present to introduce and explain the designs.

Modern design boutique featuring furniture, housewares, light fixtures, modern art, gifts, jewelry, watches, kids’ gifts, and interior design consultation.

Hope you can make it and check out the work of the Product Design students and enjoy the creative works in this amazing design boutique!


TC1000: Reveal of Moby!

Introducing Moby!

Moby is a playful bedside companion that helps you stay connected with your family and friends, as well as keeping you entertained while you are recovering or receiving treatment in a hospital. The form is friendly, easy to maneuver, easy to clean, and the mobility of the arm allows for easy viewing, playing, and using of the iPad. The three ball & joint systems allow the docking station to be positioned in the most comfortable way for the child patient.
