Mixed Tape
BA Design Warm-Up – Foundation Course
2023
semester
The first assignment consisted in choosing an object from a selection of random things, ranging from common utensils to more peculiar items. We were given a few minutes to quickly sketch the selected object with accurate proportions and in its essential shapes and details, after which we were given two sheets of thick cardboard and told to turn our 2D sketches into realistic 3D models. The only important things to keep in mind were the two-hour time limit we were given to complete the assignment and the fact that at least one of the dimensions had to measure 1 m.
We were given two weeks to complete the second cardboard model; the assignment was to choose two musical instruments and combine them into one. After doing the appropriate research and sketching out various ideas, we started working in the ateliers.
