INDUSTRIAL DESIGN PORTFOLIO
HELLOMy name is Connor Devine, I’m a second year MDes Product Design student at Coventry University.
Ever since I was a child I’ve been asking ‘why?’ and ‘how?’. How does that work and why is it done that way? I love taking things apart and putting them back together, I love to see how things work and I get a kick from repairing stuff.
I’m excited by the possibilities that new materials bring and I take a real interest in the impact that design has on the environment, I’d love to work using new and innovative materials for sustainable design.
I hope this portfolio is an informative overview of my skills and interests, Thank You for taking the interest and time out to look through.
