“The design draws inspiration from natural systems such as red mangrove propagules and barnacles to inform both the form and function of the buoy, focusing on hydrodynamic efficiency, durability, and the potential for guided recovery.”

“Using pellet-based additive manufacturing and PolyTexx recycled materials, this project develops fully recyclable garment fasteners that eliminate disassembly, enabling a circular system through BlockTexx’s S.O.F.T recycling process.”

“By co-designing homewares that reflect personal photographs and memories, a meaningful bond with the product is formed even before it is produced, helping to reduce over-consumptive behaviours.”

“The issue of inadequate waste education standards has failed to equip the next generation with effective tools to combat this decline. ”

“The project investigates the hospital inpatient’s consumption experience, to address the issues of patient consumption, patient nutrition information and patient mood, through a product redesign.”

“The design prioritises modularity as a means of extending product lifespan. Individual components are designed to be easily removed, replaced, or upgraded without specialised tools, reducing the need for full device replacement.”

“This work contributes to the design and health space by demonstrating how design techniques can be employed within underexplored health contexts to create more accessible, human-centred solutions”

“Contour Project examines how participatory design, as a framework for developing consumer electronics, can better align with individual needs and core values, thereby encouraging more sustainable, value driven consumption.”

“Responding to this shift, this project investigates how design can reintroduce purposeful friction and non-visual interaction into the digital music playback experience. ”

“The issue of inadequate waste education standards has failed to equip the next generation with effective tools to combat this decline. ”

“The project explores how design can actively reshape these habits by providing intentional storage for the bedtime routine and a calmer, filtered delivery of notifications in the morning.”

“ A circular economy approach will guide the bag’s construction, focusing on waste reduction through pattern design and energy-efficient manufacturing. This will be explored through research questions.”
