- 1. Attached project examples Design brief: Design and make motorsport themed seating which incorporates motorcycle components. A-Level I created this stool with an upcycling theme, making use of motorcycle parts that would otherwise have no use. Parts were taken from a written off Honda nc30 and the main part of this project was determining how these parts can be incorporated into a seating design. This involved designing, developing and manufacturing unique components (example shown) to make this design possible. In total 8 unique components were designed with drawings using Solidworks then manufactured using a range of machinery and manufacturing methods. I thoroughly enjoyed this project, to create something very unique and functional, also being given the opportunity to work away from the classroom. Once directed how to use the machinery safely, I could use the equipment available to me to create a product which I consider one of my greatest achievements. Design brief: Design and make the packaging and promotional material for a commemorative product with a London 2012 Olympic theme. GCSE Graphics At GCSE level, I designed and made the packaging and promotial material for my own design of BMX goggles. The equipment available to use was limited. However, I was able to develop my designing skills to produce a product to a very high standard, unique to conventional packaging through the use of mechanisms. The product produced showed my technical approach into design and manufacture. Overall I was very proud of the end product and also my project as a whole.
