Project: 1 Strike Hammer

Pricing on this came back ridiculously high so we are redesigning it a bit for manufacturing

Do you not consider manufacturing processes while you are designing?!

I feel like you fell somewhere in the middle of “art products” and normal functional design. It’s not sculptural or beautiful enough in it’s own right, and not functional enough to be useful. I find it kind of hilarious (maybe sad) you’re comparing this to the Alessi juicer, which is an attractive design reminiscent of Brancusi’s Bird in Space. Your design is just awkward. Proportions are awful, choice of materials (aesthetically speaking) is questionable, and the overall form is just so boring.

iab is kind with his C-, I’d give it a solid F.
