Hello,I am an industrial designer with a passion for product design and engineering. I love working out how products currently or could work, and finding ways to improve them. I am a designer because I want to improve people’s lives, making it better

and easier for them.

Final year design project. Stå is a chair designed to be used withsit-stand desks, particularly for people suffering with back pain.

Mechanism development

adults in the UK will suffer from back pain at some point in their life.

sitting a day increases risks of health issues. British people sit

of Scandinavian companies currently use sit-stand desks.

Exercise can be an effective method of pain relief for back pain.

5 million working days were lost due to back pain in ‘03-’04, costing

of UK companies currently use sit-stand desks in comparison. This number is growing.

Braking mechanism started as dog clutch. Tried in different places trying to get it to work.

Tilt mechanism has near enough always been the same.

Dog clutch changed to a collet and tried to connect it to the tilt to remove user error.Could not get the collet to work

with tilt so made it turn to lock.

VibrationThe chair vibrates after 30mins of being sat on to remind the user to stretch or have a small walk. These are vital when sitting down, especially with back pain.

ModificationColours and some shape can be modified to suit the customer’s company brand identity.

Bamboo

The fabric is made from bamboo. It is more sustainable than other fabrics, is antibacterial, is very soft and comfortable, and is highly breathable to avoid over heating.

Safety

The gas cylinder has a collet mechanism to stop the chair spinning when perched on, and gliders to stop it from sliding.

Standing

Using with a sit-stand desk takes strain off ankles so the user can stand for longer.

Beat Move was designed to reduce the strain of elderly people on the NHS. I focused on exerciseas medicine, and particularly the insight of grandparents enjoying spending time with grandchildren.

Users

76% of over 65 year oldsin the UK are overweight

2/3 of NHS patientsare over 65

Exercise reduces the riskof some heath issues like

falls & diabetes in over 65s

They love food, sometimesa little too much

They like to socialisewith family, friends, orpeople in the street

They like using technology,not loathe it like others

The key opportunity is to create a product that

helps the elderly play active games with

grandchildren over long distances

Falls alone cost theNHS £2bn per year

Over 65s spend on average10hr a day sitting down

Over 65s spendapproximately 80% of

their time at home

Grandparent who lovespending as much time

possible with Grandchildren

They want to laugh, havehave fun, and enjoy life

Over 65s who do as little exercise as possible

Problem

Plug Beat Move into a computer or USB plug adapter to power. Select game mode using the pads (warm up, easy, medium, hard, multiplayer). Copy the sequence shown. A new colour is added each time. Can be played with other people in the room or with people over Skype using a plug-in. Exercises the body by moving and dancing, and the mind. Once finished it can be folded, and clipped shut to be stored.

The solution is a mat with similar gameplay to the game “Simon”. It gets the elderly more active by playing games with grandchildren or other people either in the same room or over long distances.

Research Methods

Proposition

To produce a product to aid baking cakes that will reduce mess and utensils needed, and will making measuring ingredients easier, making the process overall a lot quicker.

Hands-on Experience

1/4 turn gives 1oz of the ingredients, as does 1scoop of the margarine bowl.

Rubber seal stops ingredients falling or air drying,as well as making the mechanism slightly stiffer soit is harder to accidentally overturn.

The sugar container and mechanism is smalleras sugar has a higher density than the others.

Table HockeyFood Ball This project was to co-design assistive technology sports equipment with and for children with disabilities.

The games will help them develop skills such as team work, co-ordination, turn taking, and counting.

There were 4 site visit to a special needs school. First was to look around and meet some of the children. The second site visit was to interview a child to find out what they do and do not like, what they would like to do, and to try work out their disability. Then I went away and came up with suitable designs.

These designs were produced as rendered outlines. In the co-design session the child coloured in the pictures how they wanted and were asked to change the shape. The initial designs and results can be seen above. These designs were then produced for the child to pick their favourite.

We started by learning about disabilities and their effects, to be able to work them out without having to ask. Then we learnt skills such as empathic modelling (above), interviewing, and other ways of obtaining primary research.

Table Hockey Faces

This combines the previous two games for an added challenge. More points are scored by scoring with the puck going through the mouths directly before going in the goal. Three points for going through the mouth, one point for scoring normally. The three sized faces offer different levels of difficulty.

Food BallThe children work in teams to try get their team’s colour balls through the mouths. They get 10 points for the small mouth, 5 points for medium and 2 for the large. They can do this any way they want: roll it, kick it, throw it, hit it with a hockey stick, etc.

Table HockeyThe child loves air hockey. This design was produced to be made of plywood with a low friction PTFE sheet for the surface so it can be played anywhere without the need for electricity. It comes with paddles which have an elastic strap so easy to hold, and a stick for people who may struggle to reach to the centre of the table.

These are a variety of other projects I have completedwhile at university, from my first and second year.

This was a first year branding project to design an oil bottle in

the style of a Mini.

The USB was a second year CAD surfacing module. Shown is the initial sketch, the surface model, and the manufacturable model.

This was one of my first concept designs at University of a rugged DAB radio. It would be made of aluminium and painted Teflon. Over time it would get dented and scratched showing the aluminium through the Teflon.

We had to research and design a cooking and eating device for an extreme sport, with a design that fits in with a brand. I chose

Tag Heuer and snow sports.

Part of the Interaction/UX module was to create an app for E.on involving gamification. My app let you set targets for points to be exchanged for prizes. It has VR which gives info, hints and tips for your appliances, as well as keeping track of efficiency and bills.

These are various projects completed when on my year industrial placement at Bristan Group Ltd., ataps and showers company. The first two are main projects, the other are other various smaller tasks.

The Bristan Collection is a range of showroom bathroom taps I worked on. The first part was released August 2015. For the full range, go to: http://goo.gl/MoN25u

1. Concept sketching.3. CAD development including engineering in components

and calculating to make sure they should work.

2. Team critiquing and development sessions.

4. Finshed Products.

TMV3 OpacCommercial Taps

The Opac Thermostatic shower range was a project that I started when I joined Bristan, shortly after the taps were sent to the supplier for quotes. This project was heavy focused on product engineering.

My first job was a critical task to change the highly complex internals to fit a new cartridge.

SECTION THU SCALE 2:5

My primary job was to aid the other members of the design team and the wider company with design related jobs. These are a variety of projects and tasks I did throughout the year.

On my second day, I created a shroud in CAD for protecting a shower valve while plastering. Three weeks later the first samples arrived.

I had training from Root Solution (Creo reseller, support, and training company) in surface modelling.

I did realistic renders for the catalogue when photographs could not be taken.

I did a large amount of 3D printing and jet washing.

I produced CAD models from sketches by other members of

the design team.

As well as part and GA drawings, I also created drawings for instruction manuals, design registrations, website, brochure, etc.

I created my own materials and environments in Keyshot. This meant things like realistic section

renders could be created.

I reproduced and reverse engineered parts and products in CAD. These are: a tap where all parts were made, then changed to have less; and a ceramic toilet tube which needed an engineering drawing.

One other recurring jobs I had was to create Keyshot animations. These were used as installation and maintenance guides, to highlight key features, and as a marketing tool. I made all the raw footage in one continuous sequence, and a member of product management edited it.
