7 years ago

Today we looked at how to represent metal in sketches; neutral, desaturated colors and fake reflections, suggesting a photography studio environment.

We also looked at the work of a range of current designers:

Martha Stewart – what is unique about her work? Organized clutter!

Karim Rashid’s biomorphic shapes

Ross Lovegrove: Captain Organic. Rejects biomorphism/blobism/consumerism, but does use smooth organic forms.

Yves Behar, Sayl chair, enabled by elastomer technology

I am the instructor and designer of Aesthetics of Design, and Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder.
