Multi-view Sketches

These are 2D sketches I drew of a 3D picture.  Due to this change form 2D to 3D, we can onnly get one perspective of view for an object.  There are many different views for an object.

Color Theory and Kaleidoscope

Color Theory

This is a color wheel I mad showing all the 3 Primary, 3 Secondary, and 6 Tertiary colors.
                                                                 
A color scheme is an arrangement or combination of colors, especially as used in interior decoration.


Monochromatic color scheme is all the colors (tints, tones, and shades) of a single hue. 
The analogous color scheme uses colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel.
Complementary colors are colors directly opposite each other in the color spectrum.
A triadic color scheme uses colors that are evenly spaced around the color wheel.

The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, it uses the two colors adjacent to its complement.

Using the color theory we made a kaleidoscope



This was a fun experiment in which we applied the color theory and our craftsmanship to build the kaleidoscope

Final Design Solution Project

                                  Earphones That Will Never Break Or Be Uncomfortable 


41+Xs+FECYL._SL500_AA300_.jpg (300×300)
These earphones will never break or be uncomfortable for two main reasons.
One they are covered with steel making it impossible to rip and they have cotton inside to reduce the sound and make it soft and comfortable for your ears.  The price is only $15-$20.

Interviewing a Designer

                                                              Interviewing a Designer

Today we interviewed designer Joshua Jenkins about his life and his designs.  It was a great

experience because we learned about how he became a designer and about his different designs.  He

told us about his new idea of "Goji" icons while texting.  Basically, it is a shortcut to texting because

it already has pre-installed functions that would give a typical text message and the user would't have

to type the text.  I thought it was a great idea and that it will be a big success.

Self as Designer

                                                                  Self as a Designer
As a new designer, I feel that there is a lot to learn.  I  know that designing is not a just a simple task and takes many steps and time to master.  Over the course of this school year, I intend start learning the basics of designing and in drawing and eventually build successful prototypes of the designs I make.

Improved Headphones

                                                                    Improved Headphones
The Future of Headphones
Headphones currently break too easily.  With this new design, headphones have more outer protection and more stability.  Also, there is a cotton covering to help with sound reduction.

Improvements on Headphones

                                                                       Headphones
Currently, our headphones are too flimsy.  They break too easily, do not give good quality sound, and have too less functions.  To fix the instability problem, we can cover the wire with steel alloy making it impossible to break. The would be a few open areas to be able to fold the headphones.  Also, we could add more desibles to fix the poor sound problem. Finally, for the usage problem, we would add a swipe function on the mic to make it more productive and have better voice recognition on the mic.
