Observing. Interpreting. Responding

Being a designer, knowledge to observe, Interpret and respond to objects in our surroundings is a must. Also, as humans, we form deep connections with the objects that we own. These objects become an extension of ourselves and a representation of our memories and experiences. The studio helped me developed these skills in me by focusing on objects around me and the identity they bear.

Here, in this assignment, I learnt to develop a concept from a word to visually conveying outputs.

A Framed Design Concept- Concept development

Abstraction of objects around

Object Biographies constitutes of an object manual, which successfully documents the cause of existance, history , production, mechanism and some hacks of the object.

Designing a non- normative body for myself , taught me how the characterstics of existing body\system gets interpreted, converted and expressed through design language.

Then designing a system for normative body’s interaction estalibshed a sense of contextual understanding’s requirement to creat a system responding to the non- normative body.

Finding objects in my surrounding, which i would never notice otherwise, made me gain a certain level of observing skills and sensitivity towards the interesting capabilities of the objects that are around.

Making furniture out of the objects found while exploring was a challage, which increased the influx of knowledge with many new explorations and learnings. Plus Estlabishing a concept based on the material tray and my design signature, and then conceptualizing furniture elements was an adventerous ride for me.

Here you witness the documentation of the objects that I ever owned, and for me they hold significant meaning and are connected with my memories and identity. These objects represent my experiences, interests, and values. They serve as tangible reminders of the people and experiences that have shaped my life, and when I look at them, I am reminded of who I am.
