Spice Grinder
This spice grinder is a new way to grind spices! The idea mimics the motions of someone rubbing their hands together in anticipation for a meal or a savory treat. This product is designed to be assembled by the buyer in order to save on packaging labor and provide an opportunity for interchangeable colored parts and grinding hardware.
Knuckle Mp3 Player
This sports mp3 player has designated buttons for favorite songs and can be worn on the back of hand for bike riding. Here is an example of the research and interview process I learned at the Pratt Institute and really opened my eyes to the organization of coming up with a well rounded idea that is desirable to a large audience.
This product was created for a design competition that called for the embodiment of three aspects of my personality. I chose a create a sweet sour and savory drink mix set that served as its own display. The round flask was inspired by the top-knots worn by Buddhists symbolizing the second brain of the Buddha. The two glass pouring containers cap each other off when assembled and create an elegant serving gesture with a simple turn of the wrist.
Sweet, Sour, and Savory Mixing Set
Come Passion Fruit Desire – Perfectly desirable on its own, blended pomegranate and passion fruits elegantly excite the tongue and induce the mind into confident desire.
Salty Britches Sour – A bitter flavor leaves one with a lasting and truly unique experience; a lime-mint base supports subtle harmonies of pepper and sea salt permeating complexity into the palate complimenting any light flavored alcohol.
Topknot liqueur – Symbolic of the second brain of Buddha, Topknot liqueur is a transcending exploration into the most refined flavors in worldly existence: sweet sake dances with savory honey mead, while bourbon chants a deep ominous tenor nearly drowning out the whisper of coriander and essence of lobster that accompany.
Chess Set
The concept behind this chess set deals with the function each different piece plays. The pieces themselves are shaped in correlation to the spaces they move; hence the pawns are single squares and the horses are four squares in an "L" shape. The board for this set goes away from the squares in the pieces and uses cone shapes to create an abyss for the fallen pieces to be caught in- reminiscent of fallen soldiers strewn about a battlefield. The materials consist of wood and plastic to imply a battle between man and nature.
