Today in class I created the first half of the desktop organizer. I started by laying out all of the dimensions on the left sketch and then created the box for the drawer to sit in. I made sure to add in all of the needed areas such that the pieces can be joined together with glue. and I then extruded the walls up in the left side and back. After that I created the actual walls for the drawer and left enough space so that is slides in and out easily.
Wed, Apr 9 HW – image of completed homework
Today for homework I measured out my roommates desk and figured out exactly how much space he has to work with. He said “I want to keep my mat on the desk and have the folders behind my computer mat.” After that I decided to change the dimensions of which side would be longer. I made the first component with the drawer to be longer, and the other on would be a little bit deeper. I also started my designs for the drawer and the hockey sticks for the separators between folders.
Mon, Apr 7 CW- image of work completed in class
Today in class I started my final sketch for my desktop organizer, I decided to have two main parts of the design. The first part of the design will be the drawer, It will allow him to store pencils and other small items. In order to not have the top be boring, I have decided to add a design of an ice rink to the top. The second part of the design will be the stick rack which will have 5 sticks to separate the area into 6 spots. This allows him to have a folder or binder for each period A-F. In between the hockey sticks will be 6 outlines of him skating on the ice.
Problem statement: After talking to my roommate Aiden, I found quite a few different problems that he was dealing with. First, Aiden was looking for a solution to his messy work area specifically fixing his problem of having little space to fit his binders and folders for each class. Secondly, his area has no specific place for his pens and pencils to be placed in. Hence he is always asking me for a pencil because he losses them after two days. Third, his area does not have enough space for a tall box structure. His desk only has space for a L shaped design to allow his entire computer on the desk.
