Earth Techling

My Pure Melt concept was recently featured on the green-design website Earth Techling, feel free to check out the article here: "Solar Bag Purifies Snow for Drinking".

2-Wheeled Vehicle

Here are some photos of a model I built for my motorcycle class a few weeks ago that show the 2nd generation of my concept. It is clearly more abstract than some of my more recent drawings but still represents some of the same elements, colors and emotion I want to capture in further generations of my motorcycle design.

Each of the 2nd generation models had to be painted with a five-color paint scheme meant to enhance their visual appearance. The Pratt compressor was broken so rather than spraying the models I had to hand-paint each. I've decided to continue evolving the final model with the lime green and tan color-way and will have more photos soon of recent changes and the addition of wheels!

These models were adapted from the three chosen concepts below by adding additional forms or details and enlarging the overall size. They are constructed of scored bristol board, blue foam, and wooden dowels.

Motorcycle Studio

I'm taking a transportation design class as my core studio this semester and thought I'd share some of my initial work. The class is specifically focused on two and three-wheeled vehicles but we began by simply experimenting with abstract sculptures constructed of planes, lines, and volumes. After making 10 studies, we chose three of the most successful models to evolve. Here are some photos of my chosen three models:

Break

Well I'm finally finished with first semester of my Junior year at Pratt and have already arrived home in Seattle. The semester ended with quite a lot of work and I'm still working on documenting and sorting everything out before I can begin to share it. My final critique for ID View went great, here's a little peak of my setup:

1000 Page Views

A big thank you to my friends, family and fellow students for their continued interest in my work and for 1000 page views as of today.

Finals week is in full swing here in Brooklyn, but check back soon for post ID View updates of my latest projects and final work.
