I’m sitting in Green ITC at the moment while Yuki is photoshopping her last image to go into the presentation and Omari is redoing the sections that he left at home. I have expanded on the PowerPoint presentation and have now done the layout for the wall print. I’m not sure how much it is… Read more →
Today is the last day we have before our summative assessment and I have tried to participate as much as I can but really the only thing I can do is layout the final presentation. Only thing is I’m relying to Yuki and Omari to provide the detailed drawing as 3D models so we can… Read more →
Here is a redesign of the initial kiosk concept I did, using the form of the bean that the rest of the Platz will be using. I have swapped the colours for in use and not in use as people associate red with unavailable, I suppose the blue should really be green to symbolise available… Read more →
Today we had a meeting with Flo and Greg and while I arrived late for it, I caught the tail end. The result was that Will was still single-minded and even Greg seemed to be frustrated by his conversation with Will about communicating. So the only option was for the tutors to declare all bets… Read more →
Today was spent in Illustrator again, not such a bad thing as I’m really quite good at it now. Anyway Omari was working on some sketches of the final idea. I’m not really bothered what it is as long as its done! It seems as though our group is now not the only one fractured,… Read more →
So I have been working in Illustrator on the connecting points within the main structure. Lets call them pods. It’s been very difficult to get the perspective right and for some reason I just can’t use gradients in Illustrator, so I had to switch over to Photoshop to create some lighting effects. Anyway, here is… Read more →
Today I had a brief meeting with Omari and Yuki, only for about half an hour but we cleared a lot of things up and we all have stuff to be getting on with. I will be using my new found illustrator skills to mock up a few concepts for various aspects of the confirmed… Read more →
Today was a little disappointing considering we were supposed to pull it out of the bag. Yuki worked on some 3D modelling and I used illustrator to produce a concept using the bean idea but Omari was unfortunately very ill today and so his Vector Works skills were lacking. Anyway here are the images of… Read more →
So today we had our formative assessment. Yet again we produced two distinct presentations – paper printouts and PowerPoint. Not that it mattered, we knew we were incredibly unprepared for it considering that we had no sketches…no ideas until 5pm last night and that was only thanks to a 10 minute meeting with Latent. So… Read more →
After an interesting meeting with Ruth and (insert name here) yesterday about PPD, we were told that we should firstly have an online presence as interaction designers and secondly that we should have a blog to show our thoughts and design process about our current project. A little late considering our formative assessment is tomorrow… Read more →
