My main project inspiration was first being Fibonacci Sequence, since I have always been a huge fan of those spiral design. But eventually, I opted for a hedgehog inspired design for my final project, because I thought it’s interesting to utilize the mimic the spikes on the back of the hedgehog into a functional design.…

Presentation of the final project.

For my final capstone project, I made a 3D-modeled phone case, inspired from the spikes of the hedgehogs. I wanted to make a phone case that help people to stop using their phone, and end product did fulfill my initial expectation. The back is made of movable spikes with a mechanism inspired by lego. And…

Not going to do an actual 3D printed or fabricated object, but I’ll present the render of the object for the final expo/presentation.  

I don’t see any aesthetic roots in myself. But as for my final project of making a hedgehog phone case , I’m choosing minimalism and perhaps a little bit of biomimicry, with that being said, it’s creating something with minimal shape that can represent its animal form. Above is the example of biomimicry, the product…

I like the channel, Mars Project Team, a lot. They are really good at making miniature buildings out of real building materials like concrete and then furnish them with usable diy-furnitures. The miniatures that they make are very much like a livable real houses, but just in small scale. I remember the first time that…

The image itself is pretty self-explanatory. I’ll probably choose at least one route in between the options of ordering 3D printing service online, make the phonecase by hand, or just buy a basic phone case and alter it to fit my design.

For the final project of this class, I’m creating a hedgehog phone case with minimalism style. I didn’t get to present in class, but here is the slides if anyone wants to check it out: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1gyJf20X2NOQIr0quf0dYWkkVemHNb0aMCKH-BLIX3PU/edit?usp=sharing I had this super rough 3D model in the presentation, which I still need to refine. But the basic…

The top 5 constraints of my project would be: Time: The time for the project by itself is not a lot, not even to mention that fact that we as students may have 4-5 of other projects/assignments for other classes. So there is limited time to devote to the project. Having to deal with it…

My goal for the final project is to make a phone case that’s so uncomfortable to hold, that it makes your whole experience of using phone horrible, and forces you to put down your phone. The guest lecturer on Monday briefly mentioned about addictive phone use, and I feel like creating something that disrupts the…

It’s just hard to upload pictures onto this site, so you can check them out at :https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nfvkl7p3Ltj-a_64PLm_OcqbC4G3kT0u Original Sketch&thought: I started out with quite a lot of ideas for this upcycling project. But after I talked with one of my teacher from another class, I decided to focus on using plastic bottle caps for this…

For my upcycle project, I’ll be creating an art-piece out of those plastics caps. Right now, I got all my materials: Cardboard, around 1000 bottle caps ( thanks to CU Recycling Facility), and the “glue”. I had taken some of the caps that I got and placed those into a plastic container and soaked with…

Group members: Ethan Elshyeb, Kaiya Wahl, Xiang Luo Here is our designs for the Aesthetics Game during the guest lecture. Our topic was to create soda/beer drinking hat with holder and straw in nerd culture style.

The story of my inspiration came from two weeks ago… One of my classes is called creative climate change, in this class, we have a professor named Patrick Chandler, who presented one of his past work experience, of working with the Washed Ashore Project. The project itself is about reusing the marine debris, trash gathered…

Polka dots, is the “a pattern consisting of an array of large filled circles of the same size.” according to Wikipedia. The polka dots pattern, despite being popular and widely recognized in today’s fashion. It hasn’t always been this way. In the old times “In Medieval Europe, the pattern was initially seen as very unpleasant,…
