such an eventful studio presentation.

even though i never did actually get to present my project - for known reasons hahah - here is my presentation stuff.

Valuable lesson learnt

never get sick just before a project is due!!

techy genX daddy goes green

Considering GenX dads pretty much are well catered for, in terms of gadget-esque type products and indoor products, I've made my Dad head outdoors and a green-thumbs man - having an interest in the outdoors; gardening, furniture etc. Soooo from this, I've decided to see where I can go in terms of combining technology and the outdoors; my GenX dad's big interests - in 5 years we'll probably see more products doing this; more environmentally friendly and stuff too.

Concept boards

These were our concepts boards for our target market - finally managed to find where I had them saved on my laptop!!

concepts continued

alsooo have been doing research on new technologies that genX daddies would be into.. e-ink and e-paper look like the next best thing since sliced bread and will probably be used with a number of products to be designed and released in the next couple of years.. sooo looks like this e-inky stuff is something big to consider/integrate into my designs.
