ABOUT ME I am a creative type interested in all facets of art and design. Lichtenstein, Rams, Fukasawa, Eames are the sort of aesthetics that I subscribe to, which support my own design philosophy of finding the simplest and most elegant solution to a problem. But one of the most important things that I’ve learned is that design is more than just an aesthetic. Design is about a number of different things: semiotics, ergonomics, and communication, but most importantly design is thinking made visual. I aim to mix pragmatic sensibilities with pop culture, history, stories & people. I do this through research, mood boards, mock ups, testing, empathy and a sense of humor.



He r i tag e

a place to store memories & traditions, preserving heritage in the digital age.



How do you preserve memories & traditions in a personal way in the digital age?

HISTORY My grandmother’s bakery distributed baked goods to the top hotels in Manila, giving strangers a true taste of Philippine culture. Now she is older, forgetful, & hasn’t had the time to pass these recipes down. Her story & the idea of preservation of heritage and traditions was the driving force behind the project. The goal was to evaluate and update the recipe recording process.

illuminate

a companion that helps light the way through your work



“You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway.� - Walt Disney

KID AT HEART What happens between being a kid and being an adult that makes values & needs change? We all face the same problems, stress, lack of focus, time management, & motivation. There is no product that addresses both kids and adults. Using light, the goal was to address the intersection of emotion, youth, & function.



a BRIGHT companion Nate is a light timer that sits on your desk or travels with you. Pat Nate on the head to turn it on and watch it change from a soft ambient glow to a work light.


LIGHT THE WAY

1. Pat Nate to Activate

2. nate brightens up to work with you for desired amount of time

3. nate dims to an ambient glow when time’s up!



Nate is a fun lighting solution that aims to alleviate your work anxieties. With a upbeat, encouraging, stance it can help you pass the time in any room of the house


re:align

a sleek and complex pc case that redefines the look of a home computer



“Life is chaotic, dangerous, and surprising. Buildings should reflect that� -FRANK GEHRY

city slicker Personal computers are becoming more and more integral in our everyday lives. They are moving out of cubicles and into our homes, and they do not reflect their surroundings. By thinking outside of the norms of manufacturing, the computer can change. Young urbanites will request a unique PC case that is a reflection of their lives and lifestyle.

arbor allowing a mental, physical, and electronic recharge in the hustle and bustle of city life, questioning the existence of isolation in our urban lives.



HOW DOES SOLAR POWER SHAPE THE URBAN LANDSCAPE?

THE CITY & STORIES As a city, San Jose has a long, rich, and diverse history. It is the birthplace of the California State University system & the home to many innovative companies. San Jose’s latest endeavour is to become the biggest clean technology city. A solar powered product that improves the urban conditions of San Jose would inspire and aid in the city’s green initiative.

configurations & details There are several ways to configure the system, either involving one tree or two. Arbor is easily adjustable to any urban environment. The canopy is supported with a sheet metal fabricated brushed aluminum support with inset frosted acrylic for ambient lighting

The junction boxes with outdoor plugs are inside the configuration, allowing for even more weather protection and accessibility.


GROWTH This concept was presented to the city of San Jose and a prototype was created & exhibited in the San Jose Green Vision Clean Energy Showcase. It was aslo featured in an stainability exhibit: Sustainability 3.0: Beauty Brains & Brawn, with companies such as Frog, IDEO, Method, Levi’s, and Public Bikes.

a flexible fruit bowl that is good green fun

Jozy Klupar, Alexander Neilson



HONESTY & SIMPLICITY

REWORKING With the theme of honestly and simplicity, we thought about creating an object that served a simple purpose on a tabletop. Because the goal was to create something sustainable, we gravitated towards an environment that dealt with freshness and sustenance. The kitchen was the ideal place.



F L EXI BL E DE SI GN Pouf is a fruit bowl that flexes as the amount of fruit decreases. The open airy design allows the fruit to aerate naturally, allowing it to last longer

FLOAT a play on how plastics are formed, emphasizing industry, translucence, & what we put on display



“The city is one big theater where everyone is on display.� -JERRY RUBIN

THE PROCESS The goal of the project is to redefine, redesign, and create a scale prototype of a previous design. The initial design was inspired by thermoforming. A chair was designed to emphasize the kinds of draws and tolerances that can be achieved in the process. I was also drawn to the aesthetic properties of plastics, such as translucence and lightness 48

FOR DISPLAY The result is a two-piece thermoformed chair. One half is an opaque plastic, with a translucent top. It gives the effect of floating and putting the user on display. The legs are tapering aluminum pipe, its slender nature adding to the airy feeling.

Float is a chair that takes the concepts of mass production, manufacturing, exhibition, and floating to make a functional piece of furniture. With its translucent top and exposed interior, the user appears to be sitting on air. The model is painted zprint & translucent and white thermoformed styrene.


pursed a bag that stylishly and effortlessly caters to the multi-faceted life of a modern woman.
