Bachelor of Design / Bachelor of Commerce
Studying a degree in Design and Commerce, I aimed to incorporate both fields into my portfolio, creating a series of product designs that explore the relationship between culture and consumption.
Through the appropriation of cultural designs and crafts in a culturally-ambiguous manner, my portfolio blurs cultural boundaries, expressing the impacts of globalisation due to commercialisation and consumerism.
My strength is 3D Visualisation, so I heavily reiterated my radio created in that studio. Bearing a Scandinavian design style, I created a manual that both demonstrated my process but also acted as a parody of Ikea's instruction manuals for its products. I created advertisements for the radio, refining my rendering skills and enjoying it very much along the way.
