INITIAL THEME
AAU was approached by Sacramento State Universitys Engineering Department to help them design a one seat, rear engine race car. My design was chosen out of several submissions from transportation design students at all levels.

WORKING DIRECTLY WITH ENGINEERS

The goal was to design a body that was not only beautiful, but also lightweight, and realistic to produce. Working with real engineering and packaging constraints, I gained invalueble experience, and knowledge.

DESIGN INTENT / ALIAS

Working with actual engineers was a huge learning experience. A major revision was neseccary very late in the project. A large section of the bodywas eliminated, due to fabrication deadlines, and last minute budget cuts.

Footwear

INSPIRATION

3 collections of mens footwear. Stylish urban rainboots, subdued casual sneakers, and hi-tops for daily wear. Throught the use of new materials, and classic shapes, this collection evokes emotion through visual simplicity and proportion.
