A big thanks to photographer Wendy Niamath for taking these great photos! Kleio will be making her next appearance at the Future Masters Exhibit of IDSWest in Vancouver! See you there!

Grad Exhibit at Emily Carr

Thanks to everyone who came and gave such great feedback at my final presentation last week! I’m really looking forward to the upcoming Grad Exhibit, which will be opening on May 7th at 5pm. See you there!

Final Presentation

Just a little teaser ahead of my final presentation, which will be held on tomorrow (Tuesday April 18th) at 11:00 AM. The presentations are being held in the Motion Capture room at Emily Carr University. I’d love to see you there!

Final Form

The final form is ready! Here are some teasers.

Branding

I’ve been very lucky to work with the talented and fabulous Nireesha Prakash to design the branding for Kleio. She had brought to the table some really inspired ideas and a wicked beautiful aesthetic for the product, which we’ve pulled into packaging as well. Here are some of our process images to date.

CAD Development

I have been tucked away in the CAD room for about a month now, slowly but surely refining my form. My skills with surfacing have grown by leaps and bounds- I never knew that Solidworks had such powerful tools for creating organic forms! Rhino might have been easier, but a trusted adviser mentioned that in a professional context, all the final product files will go through SW, as that’s what the Engineers will use to design tooling. I’m happy to know that I’ll have more control over final forms this way. Here are some images for you!

Solidworks

I’m taking CAD II this term, which will let me really boost my skills in Solidworks, and will also mean getting to do more 3d Printing. Over the past week or two, I’ve been trying to learn Surfaces, (not covered in CAD I) and had some success. Here are some of the models I’ve been working on.
