01) OBJECTIFIED:RESPONSE - Sewing machine

OBJECTIFIED: RESPONSE - Sewing machine 

 Watching interviews with many designers on the OBJECTIFIED, I felt that good design eventually comes from in-depth observations of 'people'. 

 

In the film, great designs are everyday things (OBJECTIFIED 10:13) and get better with use. When I heard this, I remembered an object I had read in a book before: the sewing machine of Kenneth Grange.

 

Before Kenneth Grange's sewing machine, most sewing machines had all corners angled and the needle's position was always centred. However, this past form of sewing machines had a lack of material to place on the sewing machine, as the angular edges of the sewing machine pressed painfully against the body part that touched the sewing machine, and the needle's position was centred.

 

Uncomfortable with these sewing machines, Kenneth Grange rounded out the corners that touched the body and moved the needle outwards.

 



 


 
























This sewing machine of Kenneth Grange changed the basic design of the sewing machine entirely. 

And now most sewing machines are similar to Kenneth Grange's sewing machines.

 In a film interview, industrial designer Karim Rashid said that the biggest issue of design is that what we do now affects and changes everyone (OBJECTIFIED, 46:32), and Dutch industrial designer Hela Jongerius said that each small object becomes part of the house. (OBJECTIFIED 47:40)

 The sewing machine may seem trivial, but Kenneth Grange's change of feeling uncomfortable with the sewing machine led to a change that eventually changed everyone's life beyond my home. 

 The in-depth observation of people changed a small but large part, eventually creating a great design.

09) PAPER CRAFT OBJECTS:FINAL REVISION

이미지
This week is the week when the Paper Craft Object project ends.  I made a more advanced version of the paper stalactites based on the prototype I made the week before last. The prototype version of the paper stalactite doesn't seem like in a cave, so I designed the final version of the paper stalactite by changing the organic lines into a deeper, pointed curve.  And I made two drops of water to make it seem like water is falling from the stalactite. - the process of making paper stalactites - Completed paper stalactites - Paper stalactites according to various lights - Prototype vs final Unlike the version made in rhino, it is regrettable that the paper stalactites have become a little longer overall. I think it would be much better if I revised that part. It was a good idea to choose pastel-toned paper centered on purple to give a mysterious feeling. Paper stalactites look more three-dimensional because of the increasingly darker colour of the paper outside.   Next time,...

10,11) 3D PRINTED HALLOW FORM OBJECT:THE HYBRID

이미지
This week's assignment was to create a new hybrid object of object by combining the object I made and the object of my partner. - My first 6 objects When I heard the topic of this assignment, I thought about creating objects using many Rhino tools that I have learned in class.  So it was good to review many Rhino tools such as rotate, loft, join, cut, etc. other than taper and twist that I learned most recently. - the object that I choose creating hybrid object. This object seemed to be able to stand alone without the help of others, and it also seemed easier to print when this object was actually 3d printing than other objects I created. I chose the object because I thought it was aesthetically good because the edges of the object were not round and sharp. - Ericka's first 6 objects - Ericka's  I thought the objects in both of us looked great, especially Erica's tentacle objects were great ideas. So, when mixing the two objects, I decided to make sure to use the unique...
