Outcast - Collection

A few shots of me working in the workshop at Bullwood in Glasgow where I have been working on my Outcast collection.

Show Cards

These were the designs for my show cards. The first two were for my degree show and the following pair were for my Show in London.

Degree Show

Photos taken at my Degree Show in Evolution House, ECA in Edinburgh. The show took place during the Edinburgh Festival in June 2009.

Workshop

The above photo was the final mould for my Outcast chair and below is a shot of me blending some woodchips to begin casting the chair.

Outcast - Final Renderings

These were my final renders for my Outcast chair. The photographs were taken in St. Andrews Square and Dalkeith Country Park in Edinburgh.

Outcast - Design Evolution

The image above is the design I chose to proceed with. I liked the simplicity of it and that it did not shadow the mulch. The images below were the other ideas I was playing with.

Outcast - Hand Renderings

These hand renderings were to illustrate the environment which the chair was aimed at. I hope this also helped to show the clientele and market class.

Outcast - Models

These models are were made early on in the prototype stage, as creating a mould for a entire chair was a lot more complicated as I first anticipated. the model helped to calculate angles and exactly how the mould would go together.
