my portfolio In my four years of design journey I have seen, experienced and learned different aspects of design which helped me amplify the quality of my work and design process. The portfolio displays some of the works that I have done over the span of 4 years chosen accordingly to provide you with an essence of skillset and design understanding that I have acquired during my education.

01 PARAMETRIC BENCH What if things in our environment were not static but constantly changing and evolving instead. Here is a beginning to that.. A product that is free of any specific form and breaks the conventional idea of having a static furniture around us.
O9
GRASSHOPPER SYSTEM Everytime the change in angle leads to the calculation of the horizontal surface area which will serve the seating purpose. The hoizontal surface hieghtrange varies from 350mm to 550mm which comes under the average seating hieght.
10 | Shivansh Verma | Portfolio 2018
180° 90°
45° BASE FORM
Inspired from a mobius surface. Everytime the angle changes the algorithm distributes the angle equally within its members and the change in form takes place slicing the area that comes between these parametric range and finding horizontal surfaces in this region gives us the desired result. Afterwards finding the surface area of these horizontal surfaces gives the range of suitable angles for this system.

The system itself is free of any form. The same system can be used to make something with a different base form. The base form serves a the foundation for the bench to create other forms based on the data given. 14 | Shivansh Verma | Portfolio 2018
A L G O R I T H M The rotation angle directly affects the form of the bench and in turn shows the area available for people to sit. It analyses the data and also tells you the kind of positions you can take. The software used to create the algorithm was grasshopper. The idea of the bench is inspired by a mobius surface. Something that is not static and can change its form.

Sw i tc h Switch is a stretcher that works beyond the basic needs of a stretcher. Being in a scenario with such a fast life switch helps in switching the patients from one bed to the other.
Shortlisted for AMTZ incubation center. 16 | Shivansh Verma | Portfolio 2018

PROBLEM STATEMENT
Shifting the patient from one bed to another is a task which requires a a lot of man power and sometimes the safety of the patient is at risk because of improper handling of the patient. There is still no proper method to do the same. Switch is a stretcher that solves the purpose of shifting the patient from one bed to another or from the stretcher to the bed with saftey and comfort of the patient.

IDEATION SKETCHES...
CONCEPT The stool is designed with 3 identical pieces arranges alternately opposite to each other and joined by 3 dowels in between. This makes the design easy to produce, assemble and ship. 26 | Shivansh Verma | Portfolio 2018

Identical bent wood peices
Dowel that also acts as a handle
The stool serves the purpose of seating beautifully and is very light wieght.
The alternate opposite arrangement makes it stackable

T A R S ?
The trolley’s idea is inspired by a robot called tars from the movie interstellar and is translated into the idea of a kitchen trolley which acts as your personal companion. The leg mechanism is also inspired which gives tars the ability to adjust its hieght. Tars gives the user freedom of cutting and chopping wherever they want to. Kitchen or living room or bedroom.

MATERIAL EXPERIMENTS The experiments were conducted to test the extremes of the material in order to explore more properties of the material. Acrylic showed its thermoforming Capabilities and its ability to be as flexible as you want it to be. Different tessellation on the surface gave different results on he acrylic surface, Some made it more flexible during thermoforming some did not.

O S C I L L A T E A product that serves the purpose of a laptop table whenever needed in order to use your laptop while on your bed or lying down straight. An unrealized issue that has been growing for a long time now.

Well do you really keep it on your lap? Research shows that around 80% of laptop users want to use their laptop while resting but are not able to do so because of not achieving proper comfort.
54 | Shivansh Verma | Portfolio 2018

Control the amount of light you want by just opening the lamp and keep it in whichever way you want to. Whirl is inspired by one of favorite childhood pencil case and I have tried to translate the same sense of playfulness in this lamp. It is free of any specific resting position, one can keep it in any orientation unlike other delicate lamps out in the market. The 360 degree rotation feature makes you want to play with it.

09 For those of you who’ve reached here Welcome to my system design project. It is an ongoing project that I’ve been doing and i would love to share some of it with you. We’ve been trying to find out about trust and what is it that builds trust within you regarding anything or anyone. What makes you buy a product or trust your doctor? What is it, that is behind all this? What is the driving force.
67
but first....
What is trust ?
Trust is an unspoken, variable facilitator of acceptance, approachability, and credibility for any relation, and reliability of any individual, object or institution.
Trust is like a po

After 6 weeks of primary research, secondary research, experiments, volunteering at different places and surveys. We defined trust based on six broad categories and listed down the factors that define trust in those categories. Which helped us create better insight and outputs for our project. It is still an ongoing project and you can follow us up on our blog.
