Asthma Inhaler:

This was my final year major project. The brief was set by EG Technology to design an inhaler implementing a patented concept. This required the development of a complex mechanism to index and prepare the doses for use as well as the design of the inhaler's casing. Due to confidentiality I am unable to show the internal mechanism developed for the inhaler.

Biometric Time Clock:

This redesign of a biometric clock for use in the workplace was the brief for my Design Week project. The existing design was deemed unfriendly, easy to break and hard to use; I had seven days to design and finalise a new concept.

Bottle Opener:

This is a design for a bottle opener that allows a bottle to be opened with no twisting action. It uses a combination of the conventional lazy tong bottle opener and the ratchet from a Yankee Screwdriver.
Modeled in pro/Engineer.

Modular Recycling:

This was a project for the RSA's "Green Clean" competition where the brief was to design a waste solution for the home that would encourage more recycling.

Interaction Design:

This is a flash mock-up showing how a user would interact with an internet connected device in their car. It provides route-planning that is tied in with your calendar and traffic reporting based on social networking.

Model Making:

This design is a portable information device that uses an e-paper screen so that it can be folded; This is so that it will fit in a pocket but still have a large viewing area when fully opened.

Photoshop Rendering:

This is a rendering of a mobile phone produced entirely in Photoshop.

Injection Moulding:

This is a replacement cap for a USB pen. It was designed to be injection moulded using a mould tool manufactured using a three axis CAD CAM milling machine.

Sketch Work:

Here are some examples of sketch work done for a design of a craft knife.

Older Work:

These pictures show my GCSE and A level Design and Technology projects.
