Evolve

In the ideation phase I like to create unpredictable ideas. One of the techniques we used is quick rough marker sketches. This allows you to loosely sketch without getting into too much detail. Here it was the aim to make a lot of sketches and eventually choose a sketch to develop further.

During the ideation phase I came up with a double handed drill concept. To converge the process I chose three requirements: Precision, versatility & durability. Furthermore, I incorporated the concept of using a sensor in the drill to detect what is in the wall. Since this idea was futuristic, I opted to use a modern style for the design.

I used digital means to make several variations of the original design. After I was satisfied with the line sketch I materialized the design further in photoshop. Through in-depth study of materials such a chromium, high-gloss surfaces and matte rubber, I have learned how to materialize a design in a convincing and appealing way.

In the final phase, I have gained insight in the rules of composition, colour balance and many more elements in graphic design to make a professional poster presentation. In order to retain the image and feeling of a raw sketch, I created a final hand sketch that I used in the poster design.
