Computer Modeling                         

 

 

Condominium designed after the Frank Lloyd Wright: Robie Chair

 

This condominium was designed in real world scale, incorporating the self-modeled Robie Chair into the space. Right angles and straight lines are created to enhance the elongated Robie back. The bench stems from the design of the Robie Chair. The bench created for intimacy is wood and padded with leather for comfort.  

Obelisk Salt and Pepper Shakers

 

Designed with computer modeling, these salt and pepper shakers were plastic 3D-printed to functionality. The open top provides a simple but sophisticated flow. The bottom stopper provides an air-tight lock. 

 

Pepper: 4" x 3"

Salt: 3" x 2.5"  

The Cosmetic Swab

 

This product design was inspired by the need to improve the Q-Tip. It is designed with women in mind. The metal tube is custom colored and reusable. The cotton swab is removable and created to form to the delicate eye shape for the after-use of mascara application. Many times women can be seen with mascara flakes, runs or spots on their eyes. Regular Q-tips can irritate the eye and sometimes scratch. The Cosmetic Swab is going to stop all of this by it's ultra-soft swab and chic custom handle.  

Design Transition 

 

Connecting Art Building West and Steven Hall Studio Arts Building, this transition is an underground tunnel, 200' long, 20' wide, 15' tall. The design was inspired by the need to get away from Iowa's physical standards. This tunnel is modeled after a rainforest with hollow tree trunks arranged for sound effects, vine railings and a leafy canopy. Ideally, the tunnel will provide warm air, misting features and rainforest phonetics.
