Moving Shelving for ChildrenThis product was designed to encourage interaction and make reading time more of an activity. The shelving reacts to the child as books are taken or placed.
Through passive use of the shelf, the children will be learning about balance and having fun. This is typically when children will be learning to identify letters and string together words. By making the reading experience more engaging, this product hoped to make the reading experience more enjoyable for children. This project won the Design Innovation in Plastics Awards 2011. |
Renewable Energy Donation Scheme (REDs)The brief was to design a product or system that made it easier to give to charity. I arrived at an idea that addresses both the recession and the drop in donations to charity. Private electricity generation is becoming more popular thanks to government grants that reduce the initial cost and schemes that reward the user.
My proposal was a private renewable energy generator that powers appliances in the users’ home and donates any excess electricity to charity. This provides people with a method of cutting their energy bills significantly while providing a steady income for charities. |
Constellation 2010 Wine Packaging Competition
For this brief I designed a bottle that uses wood to reflect the traditional cork element of a wine bottle. It was designed for 2010 Constellation Wine Packaging competition brief. The concept was simple; an innovative bottle design that gives the illusion that it is a construction built half of oak and half of glass.
