A fashion statement.
This is my first time trying to sketch clothes, constantly looking for inspirations in the fashion industry for inspiration. I realized how much I was missing outside the product design world the during the process. The art direction and imagery spoke ideas and emotion to me and now I look at fashion as an inspiration when I render and compose my imagery.
//Vizualization
Photobashing with digital assets
The last phase before going into CLO was me trying to piece together what these garments would look like visually. Photo bashing allows me to bypass sketching garments (that slowed down the process) and create higher fidelity visual mock ups to communicate my vision.
The left 2 versions are pushing the timeline too far into the future that didn’t suit the brief.
//CLO
Real time simulating AI vector patterns
CLO is surprisingly intuitive and easy to use, starting off with basic patterns, I was able to cut, re-draw and adjust parts of the garment with ease, while moving quickly with iterations.
//Polestar_wear

//Brief_
To propose a new product category for Devialet by designing a unified collection of objects.
//Project_
Devialet Dune is a collection of re-imagined audio workstations that beautifully streamlines the experiences of music production.

//Devialet Dune Series
DEVIALET DUNE
is a collection of re-imagined audio workstations that beautifully streamlines the experiences of music production.
The three core products, the digital keyboard, sequencer and recorder, operate in unison by wirelessly transferring high-fidelity data on the fly.
Innovative 5D touch technologies open up new avenues for expression, allowing for real-time modulation and intuitive sound shaping for more natural and creative performances
//Dune Keyboard
The Dune Keyboard is the main product, giving users the power to create melody, with the innovative 5D touch, Dune Keyboard encourages users to sculpt sound with intuitive gestures.
//Dune Sequencer
The Dune sequencer work as a compliment to the Dune Keyboard, but could be used individually: allowing users to create beats.
//Dune Recorder
The Dune recorder is enabling users to easily capture sounds on the go, with a slim profile the Dune recording transmit the recording data wirelessly to the rest of the products in the series.
The Designing of the Dune Series
//Brand Analysis
Devialet is an audio equipment brand of passion and innovation.
As a group, we were asked to create a brand book that told everything about Devialet.
Other than figuring out the brand identity, I played a role of overseeing the sections and organizing the presentaion deck, I was also helping other teammates on their section of research as well as the oral presentation.
//New Audience
Users of Devialet want is simplicity and high quality results
By introducing the new user group of the Adult Music Hobbyist, Devialet has a chance to introduce not only the joy of listening but also creating to music.
//The Challenge
The Adult Music Hobbyist are adults that have passion for music but don’t have enough time to deal with complexity of music production.
The hardware and software of current music production has many componants, making it hard to approch and not easy to understand eveything at once.
How could Devialet help the adult audio hobbist to express their creativity?
//Benchmarking
The current landscape of musical instruments are very function based, the design language is all quite similar.
Through research and consideration three products were choosen to simplify the equipment needed:
A keyboard as the main product, giving users the power to create melody;
A sequencer as a compliment, allowing users to create beats;
A recorder as a assistant, enabling users to capture sounds on the go.
These products would communicate wirelessly to make the process more streamlined.
A system that allows users to unlock features afterwards and connect to Digital Audio Workstations for more professional production.
What if gestures were musically expressive?
//Key Sketches and Modeling
By thinking about the flow of music, a design language inspired by the softness of sand dunes was explored through sketching.
40% of the term was spent modifying the 3D model to get the design language exact.
Modeling done in fusion360.
//Moodboards as Design Process
Images are used to represent the visual emotions, setting the mood for the product, as well as the story.
Using sand dunes as the main inspiration, the refinement of the modelling process was look back constantly to make sure the feeling was the same, the Material, Finish and Color boards helped to set the tone and image for the products while designing.

The bands are a detachable mesh that could be magnetically fit any wrist without comprise to comfort.
//Process_
Being a rapid project, I am used to do rapid loose sketches to convey multiple ideas and refine as a start modeling, allowing me to achieve a showable result for visual critque in a short amount of time.

Nintendo has already begin looking at mobile gaming with launch of pokemon Go, Mario Kart Tour, so why not reimagine AR gaming for mobile?
This is the Nintendo Agument.
A vision where Nintendo made AR ready mobile phone.
With the dual screen, you will be ablr to experience content like never before, unleashing the potential for future mobile ar games, now you will be able to see more with more screen space, allowing extra content or even view guides as you play through.
The roundness gives off the soft, playfulness of Nintendo products, smooth and comfortable to hold in the hands.
//Process_
After gathering refrences from older nintendo products, I generated couple concepts for a phone that resembled Nintendo’s fun, bubbly design language.

We were asked to think about new services along side products for Shinola, a detroit based watch and leather company, to expand its audience.
What if Shinola started an audio content production, named Shinola air, featuring local Detroit artists, music and interviews about lifestyle.
With the launch of the service, comes the Offshore Portable speaker, a speaker designed to be sustainable from the ground up.
The word offshore means to relocate. With this speaker, we want the user to be able to relocate the speaker easily as they move around the house doing different activities, enabling the music move with you.
//Process_
This being a full 14 week project, has the full reaserch and process, including: target user, market research, CMF, user scenarios, sketches, prototypes and more!
