Technical Drawings
This project was about observing a commercial product and producing technical drawings. While staying true to the basics of industry standard drawings, I added elements like colorful backdrops and photo inlays to make the drawings more engaging and explanatory.

Hotel Furniture
For this project, each student chose a social entrepreneurship (out of the ones introduced during the course) to focus on and was to create some sort of artifact or product for the entrepreneurship. I chose “Liana Cane”, a sustainable furniture company located in Guyana. The company mainly focused on making cane (rattan) furniture but wanted to expand to using more hardwood and had also expressed an interest in the hospitality furnishing market. Liana Cane’s designs were also outdated in style and required too much manual labor due to having excessive amounts woven elements. I came up with a simple bedroom set of furniture that kept with the natural theme of the company’s previous designs while updating the look to be more modern and timeless; making it suitable for a hotel environment. I also reduced the amount of weaving so that not as much human labor is required but it can still act as an accent point.

Ideation Cards
This project was on making a set of ideation cards that could be used to help guide someone or a group of people during a design project/process. To keep the cards from being redundant after multiple uses and also to make the experience more engaging, I made the cards in a multi-use manner including a game-like way of using the cards. Sticky note paper and a pen was also provided with the cards in the packaging for convenience and reusability.
