city car sketch

A colleague and I were asked to contribute to a local IDSA chapter's display booth at the Rochester Auto Show coming up this spring. This series of car sketches was an afternoon exercise done in sketchbook pro. It is conceptually a two-seater "city car" which takes on the form of a landrover crossed with a mini.

first attempts with Sketchbook Pro mobile

Here are the first few attempts at drawing with sketchbook pro mobile on my ipod touch. Unfortunately, it is a first generation ipod touch and the software is a bit laggy. It is useable, but not fun :( For now, I still carry a small sketchbook :)

a few quick sketchbook pages from last month

Print

I don't have a name for this yet, but it's a sketch for a personal digital storage system, with proximity aware modules. Battery powered hard drives/flash drives with functions manipulated by arranging multiple drives in physical space. Modules can sync, combine, upload, backup, etc. This is a work in progress.

the.brief DVD

I was invited to participate in this little project over the winter. Yes, that is my work featured in the teaser :)

the.brief.dvd is a new approach to showing how products are created. Four professional Industrial Designers were given the same Design Brief asking them to design a single cup coffee maker. All four Designers were videotaped as they worked, showing how they come up with their ideas and begin to realize them as a final product.

the.brief.dvd is not your typical “how-to” DVD. All four Designer’s work has been sped up and then put to cool unique music by the band “Lips and Ribs”. the.brief.dvd isn’t trying to “sit down and show you how to design”. the.brief.dvd has been created to teach, inspire, and provide a unique way of understanding how professional Designers work.
