Apple watch SE exploded isometric sketch
I learned how to create an exploded isometric sketch which allows me to gain a better understanding of how components interact with one another.
Apple watch SE plan for manufacture
From this plan for manufacture i was able to get a better understanding on how the Apple watch was made and the materials used for it.
Sketchbook drawings of headphones
Sketching different models of headphones taught me how different styles of headphones are different and drawing them from another angle can affect the way it need to be drawn.
Initial ideas for a station for children to plant plants and research them on a tablet which also looks like a plant
This taught me how different stations could look and what can be taken to be explored to look better and fit the specification fully.
Initial ideas part 2 for plant station
This taught me the same as the first initial ideas which was how different stations could look and what can be taken to be explored to look better and fit the specification fully.
Explore 1 for plant station
From this page I learnt how to explore and develop the roof and seat of the station looking into different shapes and materials to be used.
Explore 2 for plant station
Further looking into the station in explore 2 I discovered adding a flooring and how this would end up looking, with the different shapes and ideas of this. I also started my exploration into the walls of the mushroom design.
Explore 3 for the plant station
In the final page of exploration I learnt different table and wall shapes and what outcome would be the best overall, also looking into if the strip should be a window or shelf and which had the better qualities to it.
Sketchbook drawings of hairdryers
Sketching different hairdryers taught me which one looked sleek and best presentable but also easy for a consumer to understand and store safely at home.
CAD orthographic drawing of hairdryer
A ergonomically better hand grip and the head of the hairdryer can tilt for the consumers preferred angle and also wireless so no need to have a cable
The orthographic let me know each size of which parts were selected. It also gave me a understanding of CAD technology and how to present a model made through this programme as a orthographic drawing.
Poster for hairdryer
The making of the poster let me discover different colours and patterns which made the hairdryer stand out to the public intriguing them to buy this product.
One point perspective of a living room
Sketching a one point perspective of a living room let me understand proportion and scale in a real life setting, I had to understand how each object in the room lined up and how each item needed to inside the room to the one point perspective. To allow me to understand more how one point perspective works I took inspiration from my own living room for a clearer understanding.
One point perspective of a bedroom
In this drawing of a bedroom I learnt how to understand the space of the room and to try make all furniture fit within the room. I had to understand that all furniture would be drawn differently when considering one point perspective.
Sketchbook drawings of chairs
Taking time to research other chairs I learnt the very broad range of chairs already in the world and took inspiration from there to create 5 very different chairs from one another, each with different qualities to them.
Craftwork
When undertaking the National 5 practical woodwork course I had to make the above models, in doing so I learnt many skills within a workshop including working with hand tools, working fixed machinery and much more, letting me have a bigger knowledge on how a product can be made when given to be manufactured.
