Winter Quarter 2009 Summary

Flatware Final

Hello Spring Break. There's some intense banjo playing going on in my backyard, so I'll keep this brief. My final is finally over, so that means some glamour shots:

Flatware Final

Now it's time to figure out how to sleep with all that celebration going on outside.

ETA:

I'm awake from my post-final coma. The biggest criticism my class received as a whole was not summarizing our projects effectively enough. What I wish I had said:

My final model reflects the physical styling found in the core product line of the Bodum brand. The majority of the flatware is made up of a transparent material. It has three distinct elements, the black plastic handle, the aluminum screw posts and the stainless steal utensil heads. It uses the perfect circles found in their strainer as a graphical element, much like their toaster does. By referencing these physical elements, Bodum's customers recognize this silverware set as being part of the brand's product family, and through its relationship to Bodum's core product line, participate in the experience of quiet contemplation and relaxation.
