My object is an plastic egg cuter, which consist of 3 accessories and a base.

The images on this page shows the different patterns of the accessories.

The base pattern is much more complex than the accessories as it needs to cater for there’s cutting traces.

These 3 sections of the base is to show the coherent change of the height and shape inside of the base to cater for the shape of eggs and the cutting traces.

PERSPECTIVE DRAWING: SEPERATION AND COMBINATION SCALE 1:2 These perspective drawings show how the accessories and the base look like in a three-dimensional way. Besides, they also demonstrate how to combine together to use as an egg cuter.

MEASURING DRAWING DESCRIPTION There are mainly 3 ways for me to do this measuring drawing.

1. I photocopy the egg cuter and then trace the main outline. In this way, I can easily use my ruler to measure it on paper.

2. Directly measure. This method works when I need to know the height/ depth of different parts of the egg cuter, as the first method only tells the weight.

3. For those areas where ruler can not fit in, I use a small picese of paper to trace them out first. For examle, when I was drawing the base sections, I need to know the accurate height of the inside of the base.

Thus, I put a paper inside and trace the outline, then use ruler to measure.

SKETCH MODELING PROCESS

SKETCH MODELING IDEA There are 3 main characteristics I absorbed from my object.

1. Flexiable 2. Intersection and lock 3. See through layering

9

Sketch Design #1 CHANGABLE/ADJUSTABLE/MULTIPURPOSE/PORTATIVE

What is your idea? [Maximum 5 key words]

INSPIRATION: This design idea came from the characteristic of flexible from the model. This sleeping pod is designed for people who sleep on a chair/ next to a wall without a desk.

The triangles interseting with each other on the shower are removeable and can be adjust by the user for their expected angle and height.

10

How does this respond to your personal space?

I use triangle as the main design element is because it has the visual effect that looks not easy to approach. This implys that the user is not willing to be disturbed by others. Besides, the geomectic shape eye mask also contributes to increase the users’s sense of security as it blocks the view form outside but till also the user have the chance to see what’s happening outside.

Sketch Design #2 LOCK/PROTECETIVE/SLEEPING ON A DESK

What is your idea? [Maximum 5 key words]

How does this respond to your personal space?

INSPIRATION: This design idea came from the characteristic of intersect and lock from the model. This sleeping

I use curve shape pattern to wrap around the user’s neck and back to protect the user being disturbed from the back.

pod is designed for people who sleep on a desk.

Sketch Design #3 RELIABLE/IOSLATE/SEE THROUGH LAYERING

What is your idea? [Maximum 5 key words]

INSPIRATION: This design idea came from the characteristic of intersection and lock. Random amount of traingles intersec with the grid shape layers underneath to form the basic shape of this sleeping pod, which allows the user lay down to sleep.

12

How does this respond to your personal space?

Triangle is still the main design element in this design. Apart from the reasons mentioned above, in this design, triangle is use to protect the user and isolate he/she from the others and outside environment. Besides, the geomectic shape eye mask and the grid-shape layers underneth also contributes to increase the users’s sense of security as it wrap the user, isolating he/she from the outside environment and blocks the view form outside.
