3DD- Project Two- Week One

On the first day of our second project, everyone was given a different object and the aim was to get inspiration from it and finally create a final piece. The object I got given, was felt tip pens. At first, I observed the pens and thought that I could use both their shape, as well as their different colors.I tried experimenting, by gluing the pens together in order to create different forms and shapes. By taking photos of the form I created, in different angles, I was able to get different shapes out of it, which later on helped me create my designs After trying out various designs, such as a table, a floor lamp and a coat hanger. My initial idea was to create a coat hanger, but after trying to make a prototype, I realized that this plan wouldn't work, since the structure was not suitable for it. Therefore, I decided to create a shelving unit. This helped me realize that by making prototypes of the product I wanted to make, helped me understand more about the structure of the object and gave me the opportunity to improve it.
