Belly Bites

I made a dog treat box for school and it's adorable. Look at it's lickity little tongue and woobly little legs.

The paper it's sitting on is a class critique. I've been working on this project for a week or so, and this is the second iteration of this box. As you can infer from the sheer quantity of notes on the template, there will certainly be a third.

So crack open its skull and feed your pets with the innards of this adorable little doggy box! It's technically not cannibalism!

The Roaring Five-Years-From-Now

This was past of an art history project, the assignment was to create an educational product that could be sold in a museum gift shop to teach people about a particular movement. Hence this art deco desk calendar. It's chock full of all kinds of lovely prints and fantastic information about the era, the art, and the legacy of art deco.

I'll Make You a Pizza You Can't Refuse

There's a pizza place nearby with a mafia theme. Their current menu doesn't really suit their restaurant - it's built around buffet and delivery orders, but finding a way to order the pizza you want is a bit of a mess. It lists all kinds of things you don't need to know while in the store and things that don't do you any good outside the store, like the contents of the salad bar and the drinks available at the drink fountain. Here's the original for comparison.

I redesigned and streamlined their menu, turning it into a tear-away notepad. The focus was on user experience, and I wanted a design that would be easy for the customers and cooks to interact with. This menu explains everything you need to know about building a pizza with little pieces of mafia theming sprinkled throughout. I also redesigned the logo while I was at it.

Low Relief

We've been moving right along in Design 3D, with all sorts of paper engineering stuff. I don't have any of those to show you yet,but here's a bunch of little fluttery thingies arranged in a diamond shape!

The project was to take a single form, make it into a cell, and repeat it into a grid. So I did that. Yup.

Interlace Again

More paper weaving, on a slightly large scale.

Lest it Flutter Away

I made an origami bird! And then I made an origami cage, because ain't no folded punk gonna fly away from me.

A Book Made of Paper? What a Concept!

My Design 3D teacher isn't terribly fond of this one, but I had to use that parchment paper somehow.

Weave a Cardstock Web

Welcome to Design 3D! Where we cut up bits of paper and make them into things! On paper this class is a continuation of Design 2D, and the principles of gestalt and organization are to be carried over into a three-dimensional space. Right now we're basically just playing around with paper, though.

Here's a thing I made!
