I'm a third year ceramics student in Limerick School of Art and Design. This is a blog we were told to set up to record our projects during the year. Please feel free to leave some comments or questions and to follow how things progress throughout the year.

Nicola Dunne Ceramics: Macquettes

Nicola Dunne Ceramics: Macquettes: "Here are some paper and card macquettes."

Macquettes









Here are some paper and card macquettes.

Trying to come up with a design.










Here I have taken some of the elements that I liked from the package and just messed around with them to see what I could come up with.

Sketchbook




These are some of the sketches of the package that I
have done.


Starting Point




I chose a package that was designed for a travel alarm clock. This is a transparent plastic object that when opened out revealed many different shapes and sections. 








Packaging Project

This project is based on packaging and how it accommodates an object.  The objective is to look at the function of the package rather than how it is styled and to come up with a new design based on the qualities that I was drawn to in the design.
