Project III- Travelling to the Finish in Pairs........

  

Project III…Travelling to the Final Stretch in Pairs

Project III’s direction is product design driven. In keeping with our theme of travel this last project is a team initiative.

Pairs of (your choosing) will produce 6 concept sketches and 1 prototype of an article of travel

The pairs should have a discussion about what travel means to each of them. Communication is key in-group work.  

The themes of the concepts may draw inspiration from Project I and from Project II or if your team is very organized a combination of both from each team-member providing a very directional narrative to the concept of travel and arrival in space and time….

Materials for Prototype- Paper, glue, tape, staples…no wire, no plastic -Color, pattern are allowed the prototype must fit on your desk and be no larger than a toaster or a large shoe box…it can have several elements, and objects, made of paper placed in it to give scale and realism…

CLEAN! Effective, documented process and of course WELL-CRAFTED work is the goal….
