Original Concept Description: A cyberpunk-like rendition of a respirator mask made specifically for Sophie Chu.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Sophie because it fits the form of her head while not putting any strain. The mask fits comfortably around her nose and cheekbone. There is also a strap that can bend around the back of the head to prevent strain on the ear and hair from scrunching up that the covid mask and VR headset does. The beak part of the mask can also be taken off, leaving the base structure still on the face. This allows Sophie to easily access to her mouth for eating and drinking without the painstaking process of taking the whole mask off.

Process: I first stared off with collecting visual references of what I had in mind and what I wanted to make. I then got a 3D scan of Sohpie's head and ideated the design of the mask and final compositions. Afterwards, I took screenshots of angles that I wanted to use, imported them to my drawing app and drew the design over the screenshot.

Reflection: Getting a 3D scan and finding how to work with one for a design was very interesting. I never put much thought about using a 3D model to revolve a design around. It was nice as I could move the scanned model to the angles I want, but at the same time it felt a bit redundant because I could just take pictures of my model and get the same result.

Original Concept Description: Have you ever wanted a premium brace with premium looking and feeling materials. Well now with the new  iBrace that is a Perfect Fit for the user you can have that luxury experience while on and off the field. 

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is the perfect fit for my Knee: 

• I've worn ACL braces before and I know the positive and negative 

• It has easy BOA system adjusters

• Comfortable padding around the legs while also having aluminum and hard plastic protection in spots that need it

• Design inspired by apple branding 

Process: I initial started by scanning someone elses leg but the scans were just not coming out. Somebody scanned my leg and it ended up coming together from there. I always wanted to make a costume brace for myself so this was a perfect excuse to make my ideal brace with some factors that I know a good brace should have.

Reflection: This project was a slow start for me. I stated by sketching and using those sketches in Viscom and another AI software to get inspiration which helped a little with visualizing. I then moved to fusion to 3D model and this was way harder then I expected. Making a model around a form to perfectly fit it is a challenge on it's own and trying to make it represent a certain style is a whole other challenge. I wish I went into this knowing how difficlult this was going to be but I am really happy with the end result.

Original Concept Description: This backpack is designed for Aliina's everyday usage plus more! With a focus on form and function this backpack is versatile without compromising comfort. Aliina can simply slip right in and start her day perfect with a perfect fit. 

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Aliina in these ways:

• The back aligns perfectly with Aliina's back. 

• The bag also has detachable pieces for on the go grabs.

• The bag has a plethora of pockets for easy organizational needs and for protection of heigh value goods. 

• colors inspired by Aliina's favorite color palate and style of backpacks. 

Process: I started this project by taking a 3D scan of Allina's back. After I took the scan I did an in-depth interview on what were her pain points with the backpack she already has and what she would want. I then took these ideas to the drawing board and came up with 6 rough sketches. I showed these sketches to her, and she picked 2 that she liked stylistically. After getting my general form down I looked up some reference images and then layout my poster. After I got my first two posters done I created a gif to show the full form. 

Reflection: Before starting this project I was really intrigue to see how 3D scanning works and how it would impact our final outcome. This guided me through the process of analyzing the difference between a photo and a scan. Although a photo is extremely similar to a scan (as you need photos to make the scan) the biggest difference for me is the scan allowed me to think in 3D. Often times with a photo it is easy to overlook the form or the texture of an item but the scan provides you with those details that are missed. I felt like it was easier to make my form to Aliina’s body once I did the scan as I could toggle and look at my subject in the digital world while I sketched in the digital world. In the end, I feel like this project provided me with a stronger incite to the power of 3D scanning.

Original Concept Description: A unique pair of glasses for Nicole that features a tactile button. It allows her to transition between regular lenses and sunglasses instantly. 

Intent of Perfect Fit: This perfect fit is intended to shape Nicole's glasses to her nose. For people with low nose bridges, standard glasses tend to slide down, rest on the cheeks, and be ill-fitted. 

Process: I started by doing a short interview with Nicole. I learned about how her glasses currently fit, the style that she likes, and what features she would want. I then 3D scanned her head in Kiri - paying attention to her nose and ears. From there, I gathered references on Pinterest from glasses ads, sketches, and models. I then planned out my visuals with the orientation and perspective I wanted. In Fusion360, I imported the scan of Nicole and a pair of glasses. I oriented them on her face and took screenshots so I had something to draw from. I used my references and screenshots as underlays in Procreate and made sure to change the shape of the glasses to her style and add the button. 

Reflection: 3D scanning was new and exciting for me. Although they didn't show up well in Fusion, it was still nice to add this to my toolchain. The sketching process was incredibly difficult but I learned a lot and I am interested in broadening my character style. Overall, I am happy with how they turned out.

Original Concept Description: Kora can say goodbye to one-size-fits-all mice and hello to a new level of ergonomic excellence with this custom-made mouse.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Kora in these ways:

• each finger channel is custom fit to Kora's finger 

• the mouse has the option for hand warming in cold classrooms/offices

• keeps her favorite sensory cues (clicky mouse and buttons, textured finger channels, smooth plastic)

• colors inspired by Kora's favorite color palate(s)

Process: I started by taking a scan of Kora's hand.  I examined her current mouse and asked how she'd want to change it.  Then, I ideated forms based on her answers.  Using Photoshop and KIRI Engine, I created posters to display her formulated product.

Reflection: This project showed me the impact that ergonomic fits have on products.  Getting to 3D scan a "client" and create a product around that 3D scan was incredibly helpful for making a custom-fit.  I was surprised at the fidelity of the 3D scan, but I wish I had explored the hands in different positions.  I would have liked to explore creating a more unconventional form for the computer mouse.

Original Concept Description: Ear cuffs have become popular jewelry pieces for achieving a stylish "earscape" without the need for painful cartilage piercings--ear cuffs typically wrap around the curves of the ear, no holes required! This set of custom cuffs has been curated to Lea's personal style and ear anatomy.

Intent of Perfect Fit: Lea's jewelry preferences were prioritized in designing her cuffs. For instance, she exclusively wears gold jewelry, so my design features gold metal only. She has three existing lobe piercings that she often wears standard earrings in, so I wanted to leave that space open so that she could enjoy both her normal earrings and custom cuffs at the same time. She also expressed an interest in a mixture of solid metal and dangly styles. The cuffs provide a bold, solid look while the chains add movement and daintiness, and the helix cuff chain showcases a charm that matches the hoops she often wears in her lobes. The 3D scans of Lea's ear were used to shape the cuffs to her unique anatomy, most evident in the anti-helix cuff that is shaped to fit that curve perfectly. The design also exhibits a fitted style that closely hugs the ears for security, most evident in the front-facing view of the third visualization, pictured left.

Process: References and inspiration photos were gathered from Pinterest and TikTok. I consulted with Lea about her thoughts on these images and gathered information about her jewelry preferences and style. The Curated Lobe, a jewelry company I was familiar with on TikTok, provided great examples of the functionality of their ear cuffs and chains and how they style them together which influenced my design. The 3D Scanner App was used to capture a 3D model of Lea's ear and profile, which I later edited and refined for use in my final visualizations using Procreate. I used a series of screengrabs of the scan that described the anatomy in a 180 degree rotation, from front to back. These images were used as underlays during ideation in which I used Procreate to sketch potential designs on top of. I also did a bit of research on basic ear anatomy and made a reference diagram so that I could properly name the jewelry pieces based on where they are meant to sit on the ear, pictured in my second visualization (left). Each of the final images was drawn in Procreate using the 3D scans as underlays.

Reflection: I am a fan of jewelry and am interested in the concept of "ear styling" and "ear curations" which I have seen on social media. I used this assignment as an opportunity to do that myself and become a stylist for Lea. A lot of ear cuffs on the market are adjustable but limited in their shape because they are trying to accommodate for a one-size-fits-all situation. By fitting these cuffs to Lea's ear, there are more possibilities for uniquely shaped, funky jewelry which I aimed for in this design.

Original Concept Description: A pair of Solar Eclipse glasses that fit Fran's face perfectly, for a comfortable and safe experience as she awaits the next solar eclipse in 2044. 

Intent of Perfect Fit:  My design is a perfect fit for Fran because the glasses fit perfectly to her face shape, and the bands are angles to fit her head just right. There are additional features for comfort and stability, making it much better than her old eclipse glasses.  

Process: I began to search for target visual references. I wanted to explore different styles and identify what could be seen as a perfect fit. I originally started with the idea of creating a google that resembled a ski goggle. I then used the 3D scanner Kiri to scan Fran's face whom I was basing my design off of. After multiple attempts of scanning I was able to achieve a few profiles that worked well for my final visualizations. I used overlays in procreate to sketch on top of the scans and other target visualizations to create a perfect fit. I then added arrows and call outs to explain how my solar eclipse glasses fit perfectly to Fran. 

Reflection: I thought this project was really interesting. I enjoyed getting to mess around with 3D scanner platforms and would like to continute to see how this can be used in the future. I think I had some funky outcomes with people, but I am interested to see the quality when scanning objects. I also really enjoyed the creative freedom to create a series of images that highlight the qualities of our perfect fit design.

Original Concept Description: A crossbody bag designed to fit the geometry and needs of Jessica Angst.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Jessica because it is made to be ergonomic according to her 3D scan, and it fits her color, style, and storage needs. The J Bag is meant to fit comfortably to the contours of her body, is her favorite color, has pockets designed for her specific belongings, and is a size shape specific to her. 

Process: When thinking of an item that could be designed to be a perfect fit, a crossbody bag came to mind. I have a lot of preferences when it comes to bags: sizing, pockets, zippers, etc. A crossbody bag specifically felt like a good choice because it interacts with the body more than other types of bags. I began my process by collecting images of bags I liked visually and bags I liked the shape/ fit of. I also found style and graphic design inspiration for my visuals. I then used Kiri to do multiple 3D scans of Jessica, focusing on her torso. I took screenshots from her 3D scan and used them as an underlay for part of my visualizations to fit the bag to her body. For the other visualizations, I focused on the bag itself: exterior, interior, contents, and callouts. I created my visualizations in Illustrator and used bag product photos for inspiration. 

Reflection: I enjoyed this process. The 3D scans could be frustrating as it would not focus on the right area or make some areas low quality. I had to reroute when my initial idea for sketching my visualizations did not turn out how I envisioned. I am happy with how clean a cohesive my final visualizations are.

Original Concept Description: To reimagine the utility of CPAP machines at a smaller, sleeker scale. By eliminating clunky headgear and enacting a visual overhaul, users can rest easy with this trusty little machine and reduce noise to a minimum. No tubes, no stress, no red marks on the face. Just close your eyes and dream.

Intent of Perfect Fit: Lincoln Ahn has an affinity for bold geometric designs and a taste for subtle elegance. This device was designed using the contours of his 3D scanned face, seeking to match his pointed chin and sharp jaw. Features including the rubber nose fitting and retainer ensure a strapless design that keeps Lincoln's hair unbothered and looking fresh for the morning. The object's color pallet was inspired by one of Lincoln's favorite Patek Phillipe watches. The CPAP is an object of personal interest and not in of itself related to the client.

Process: 3D scanning was done using the photogrammetry option for  3D Scanner app for android. I wanted to invert my usual workflow by starting with digital sketches since these can be altered quickly and impermanently as opposed to analogue sketches. After experimenting, I found my form and colors. I then transitioned to analogue skethcing, but only in low fidelity. Using Krea open beta, I was able to refine my sketch using desired materials and finishes. I let this result inform how I should render my final drawings by hand. Finally I took each sketch and used photoshop to create my three final visuals.

Reflection: I felt rushed during this project and produced some of the lowest quality sketches as a result of staying up to four in the morning. That being said, using 3D scanning and Krea for the first time was exciting. I want to keep trying this inverted workflow because I do think it helped me know what to aim for when my pencil hit paper and reduce the amount of materials used in ideation.  It was fun working with Lincoln and learning more about his stlye and preferences. I think that is some great training for client work and look forward to more projects along those lines.

Original Concept Description: Customized Traditional Chinese garment for Sophie Chu

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Sophie in the way the dress is sculpted on the 3D scan of her body. 

Process: I attempted to use Marvelous Designer for my project but encountered problems when converting my 3D scan into a compatible avatar for the software. I switched to using Blender, where I used the sculpting tools to correct the flaws in Sophie's scan. During this process, I discovered an different approach to this project: using a 3D model of a dress and adapting it to the scan by sculpting it directly onto the body, making the perfect fit. 

Reflection: I am happy with how it turned out, I learned a lot during this project and it made me curious to know more about Marvelous Designer.

Original Concept Description: I planned to make a snorkel mask fit to Emily's face for a custom, waterproof, comfortable fit.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Emily because the seal and nose fit perfectly to her face,  and the strap fits to her head size and shape, with a cut-out for her ear.

Process: After researching snorkel masks and realizing how important it is for them to be comfortable and fit the wearer's face, I knew I wanted to design one for Emily. First, I scanned her face using KIRI. I then took screengrabs of the 3D scan and edited out any flaws from the scan using Photoshop. Next, I took the screengrabs into procreate and sketched and colored in different angles of the mask to showcase its different features.

Reflection: The process of 3D scanning was new and interesting to me. Once I took all the photos for the scan, the 3D model still had many flaws in it that I had to edit out. Overall, I am very satisfied with how my snorkel mask came out because my drawings convey all the features I wanted to show. I am interested in exploring 3D scanning more and using it to 3D model products.

Original Concept Description: A custon designed piece of headgear made specifically for Cheyann to aid in getting over migraines. 

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Cheyann in the way the foam would be molded to her face allowing it to sit seamlessly thus blocking out light. 

Process: I started by looking through different kinds of eye wear. I found some that have a thick foam inside to fit a face and block out light. From there I went into the 3D scanning in order to make this a perfect fir for Cheyann. I tested many different including ScandyPro and 3D Scanner App, I ended up using Kiri Engine and it's LiDar function. It took many, many tries to get one that was good enough to work. Because the scans were not perfect I compared it with plain photos I had taken to get a more comprehensive sketch. The sketching was made through the use of Procreate where I sketch overtop a screen capture of the 3D model and the still photos in order to make them fit her face. After all the sketching was done I exported into photoshop where I fixed the image size as well as cleanign up some shapes. 

Reflection: 3D scanning was a much tougher process then I anticipated. It took a lot of trial and errors to even come up with something that was decently well. However, I did figure out some work around so if I ever use these programs again I think it will go more smoothly. I think with more time I would have likes to experiment with animation more and incorporating the 3D scans even more than I did for the final.

Original Concept Description: A cozy Eevee themed onesie pajama set designed specifically for Cynthia Szeto, featuring Eevee's signature colors, ears, and tail. 

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Cynthia in its form that considers her body measurements, preference for comfort, and love for the Pokemon Eevee. The onesie is tailored to ensure comfort during sleep or lounging.

Process: I started by struggling through the scanning process. Once I got a model I could work with, I realized it helped to use a the lower poly model, which cleared up a lot of the odd formations. From there I took screenshots of angles I found helpful, and built my first two posters on top of this. I also knew I wanted to draw a poke-sona of Cynthia to help capture the spirit of the project, which ended up being my third piece. 

Reflection: At the end of any design project I always wish I had more time. I wish there had been more time to explore 3D scanning technologies, and more time to render. Overall I'm happy with how this came out. Sketching on top of a 3D model made me think about how it all came together, and developed my understanding of shape more then I thought it would.

Original Concept Description: A lighter ring made as an homage to Columbus designer Chip Orban referencing his love of topographic patterns and fire.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Chip due to...

• References his old logo designs.

• Takes inspiration from his favorite patterns and motifs.

• Is made to bolster his ring collection.

• Made with close consultation to his hand movements.

• Has both a cap and a band to secure the main section to the thumb.

Process: After consulting with Chip on his interests and favored hobbies and visuals, I made several attempts at 3D scanning through both KIRI and 3D Scanner app. While these were developing, I sketched out the concept for a ring that acted as a lighter when flicked. I then used Fusion 360 to model the ring and adjust the measurements. From there, I rendered the ring in Keyshot and edited a fictional magazine with Chip on the cover wearing the ring. I also used watercolor pencils to make an older style advertisement. 

Reflection: Overall, I thought using the 3D scanner was inaccurate most of the time, with my final scan even having some webbing issues. However, I'm excited to see how the technology develops and is brought into our daily lives. Trying to make three visualizations with drastically different methods was also a lot of fun, with each conveying a different feeling and "use" of a product where utility needs to play nice with style and novelty.

Original Concept Description:  My design is tailored precisely to Sydney's ear, ensuring a perfect fit. She can effortlessly slide the cuff onto her helix and let it rest on her lobe. Its snugness ensures it stays secure and comfortable during all-day activities.

Intent of Perfect Fit:  A custom designed piece of jewlery made specifically to the size of Sydney's ear to allow her to wear earrings on her cartiledge without it being pierced. Made in silver coloring to match her skin tone and preferences, as well as the pattern was designed to compliment her ear size and shape, going as far to ensure it covered her pre-pierced single and double holes. 

Process: I began by looking through pinterest for any pre-exisiting earrings that could provide inspiration for my design. Then, I went ahead and scanned Sydney's ear, trying out both Kiri Engine and the 3D Scan App to obtain the most optimal scan. Once I had this scan I was able to put the profile of her ear into procreate so that I could do some quick ideation. I then narrowed down my options and consulted Syd to find out which cuff she was most interested in. After deciding on the cuff design, I went into Fusion 360 were I attempted to make a rough model so that I could visualize what the ear piece would look like. Finally, I hopped into Procreate, using the 3D model to guide me in my sketching. Here I was able to sketch out multiple different angles of the cuff and place it onto a sketch of Sydney's scanned ear. 

Reflection: I though that it was interesting to use 3D scanning for this project and explore how we can utilize it in our work to both visualize and design on. While there were definitely some inaccuracies with the scanning software we had access to I do think that with some patience it was possible to get a successful outcome. I am interested to see how the heavy duty 3D scanner that is being set up will work. At the beginning of this project I was uncertain of what direction I wanted to go in and was nervous about what I would end up creating. But overall I am satisfied with my final outcome and the tools I used along the way.

Original Concept Description: The concept for this project was to take a simple dog walking belt and elevate it to a personalized item.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for Katrina by forming it only to her, I didn't make the belt adjustable. I took into consideration what she takes with her when she walks her dog and factored in pockets to accommodate. Visually I made it red, her favorite color, and tried to make it more stylish to fit her.  

Process: At the beginning of this project I was torn between what product to customize. After getting peer opinions and further searching the internet I decided on a dog walking leash and then started trying to play with apps to get a good 3D scan. After the first two scans tried to include the room, I realized I didn't have the correct settings checked. I was then able to get a couple scans on KIRI to work pretty well. After I had my scans I brainstormed how I wanted to present my visuals to then bring them into Fresco and sketch over them.

Reflection: I think this project was interesting, I had never used a 3D scanner app before and was surprised how many free ones are available. My success rate with how each scan turned out was about a 60/40 but I feel like I got the hang of how to angle the camera and slowly circling. I'm curious how other objects would capture and will have to play around with that.

Original Concept Description: A watch inspired by the Aston Martin DB5.

Intent of Perfect Fit: My design is a perfect fit for my brother Seth because it celebrates the more luxurious objects in life. It is fairly minimalist but makes a statement. The watch and strap is tailored to fit specifically around his arm. 

Process: After getting a 3d scan and experimenting with the mesh to get something more manageable to work with I then began to ideate different wristband and watch face styles in fusion 360. At the same time I was also looking at other luxury watch brand and identify some of the aspects that I liked from them. Next I began to develop my ideas further in fusion 360 building the watch around the mesh in order to make in fot correctly. After I created something I was happy with I brought the OBJ of the watch into keyshot and began applying materials that related to the DB5 to further that connection between the car and the watch. 

Reflection: I am very happy with my final outcome. I really think that I have progressed with my fusion 360 and keyshot workflow. There is also noticeable progress with the quality of the keyshot renders. I did not particularly enjoy the 3d scanning as I never got it to work as well as I would have wanted it to
