2018 STX Cell IV Lacrosse Protective Gear
Designed the Shoulder Pads, Arm Guards, Arm Pads, and Elbows. Gloves were by another designer. Not a huge fan of the white injection molded elbow on the white colorway, but you cant win every battle (Black looks better!)
Fun project with some good technology and protection improvements.
I also was busy with this project. The elite speed rope. It has an innovative grip that allows for the fingers to come closer to the center of axis for the highest level of control. I added some initial renderings to help explain the shape of the handle and highlight some of the details.
I can’t find one. I was looking around the web not sure where they are being sold. Or even the exact name they launched under. What were your questions I can probably show work to explain it more?
I personally would be interested in seeing how you came to the shape you did - Really digging the subtle twist and transition through the handle. Nice work!
Here are some of the development process I used to create the final shape. There were also a lot of 3d model revs and prints to get it to were it is now. I am also including some close up pictures from a sample on my desk so you can see the texture and curve of the handle. The initial idea came from an obscure reference that I came across about creating products for delicate surgeries and that it is best to try to have the fingers closet to center access of spin.
Really excited to share the first round of products I’ve designed and developed here at Orvis. This being my first time in footwear and outerwear, alot of time was spent working with sourcing, vendors, and field testers to determine proper fabrics, construction techniques, and best practices.
Our second project with PRS Guitars just dropped. This was a fun product to develop - rock stars have their own vision for a VBL and corporate entities have their vision for cost effectiveness - we got to sit in the middle and help bring it all together. It didn’t hurt that we got to work with Mark Tremonti. I’m thrilled with the execution of the details. http://www.prsguitars.com/amplifiers/mt/mt_15/
Just in, this amp won Best of Show at this past weekend’s annual NAMM show. Awesome!
I joined this project really late, so really can’t take much of the credit, but am still really excited to have played a tiny part in it’s journey in to the wild! The press went live this week ahead of New York Toy Fair, Iron Man Hero Vision AR.
Nice work on the amp! That’s so cool that you got to work with them. I’ve always wondered if guitar brands design their own stuff or hire consultants. Working with a guitar brand is a big bucket list item for me.
This one’s for you gamers out there!
I did the ID concept for a new Gaming speaker that launched today: the Logitech G560
Usually I focus more on our core business with keyboards and mice but when I found myself with some free time last year, I volunteered to “freelance” a little in the gaming department and conceptualized this speaker.
I just did the concept design for this and the team did a great job refining it and pushing it through product development stages.
Really cool! I don’t game, but love the concept of the lights matching the screen. I remember there was a Philips TV with some sort of backlight behind the bezel that did this, but never saw it in real life and not sure how bleeding color works on a movie (when you typically want it black around the screen) vs. a more immersive gaming environment or passive computing one where this would enhance the atmosphere.
