Getting Technical

















So for our project this semester in Wuppertal we are designing a shower radio. For the first month we have been strictly doing research and studying different shower radio products that each student has purchased. We have gone more in depth to materials and processes than we usually do in Cincinnati. I think overall this will prove to be a very vital experience. I'm excited to start thinking about the smaller intricacies of a design like leaving an indentation for product sticker placement so it doesn't just get randomly placed on in production. Thinking through small features like this and how to incorporate them into part of your design as opposed to simply putting them on as a last step. Try looking at the underside of a product next time you use it and it is often a dead giveaway to how detailed the designers and engineers went into making the product. Anyways enough rambling, this is a SolidWorks rebuild of the shower radio that I built. The render isn't the best but it was finished at four in the morning so bare with me.
