An example of projects from sophomore year at Wentworth Institute of Technology! More to come!

1. Ariel Ziegler
Industrial Design 2018

2. Hi, I’m Ariel!
I am an industrial design student currently
studying at Wentworth Institute of Technology!
My passion for design started when I was young
when my dream job was to be an “inventor.”
Since then, my desire to create has only
heightened. At Wentworth, my training is being
formalized as I combine education with a passion
I’ve had for design since childhood. My projects
have shown creativity, cleverness, and sometimes,
a touch of whimsy. This portfolio showcases a
small portion of that passion. Enjoy.

3. A Shoe for David

5. A flat single color-a trend setter like David
needs something more unique to stand
out above the rest.
Pointed toe is uncomfortable-
David needs a pair of shoes he can walk
around in, do business in all day
without the need to take them off due
to discomfort.
Classic low cut- while classics never go
out of style, boots are more unique,
stylish, and comfortable.
Laces- short laces make it difficult to
adjust shoe tightness. More laces means
more adjustability, more adjustability
means more comfort.

10. Trophy For
Maid of Honor

11. The Maid of Honor
The Maid of Honor at a wedding often goes unappreciated considering how
much time, money, and effort is put into the task of helping the bride. Only
the most beloved friend of the bride gets this position. An award should be
created to celebrate and thank the Maid of Honor for the amount of work she
does as a wedding planner and friend.

12. Traits of the Maid of Honor:
Sisterly bond with the bride
Elegance
Supportive

13. Permutations

14. Refinement of Form

15. Final Model

16. The two pieces of the trophy
represent the Maid of Honor and
the bride. The top piece may
wobble, but the stand is there for
support- much like how a bride
may be overwhelmed and the Maid
of Honor supports her.

is Honored

17. Allie the
Angler Fish

18. This is Jackson!
Jackson loves to go
fishing with his daddy
and wants a new toy that

during bath time!

20. Initial Toy Ideation

21. The Initial Idea: Angler Fishing Rod
Jackson’s new toy will consist of a
main body that will act as the
fishing rod and several smaller
bodies that will act as “the catch”
to catch with the rod.
This type of toy encourages
manipulative play by challenging the
user to use a tool to catch the bait,
and make believe play by allowing
them to pretend to go fishing.

22. Refinement of the Main Body

23. Refinement of Accessory Pieces

24. Allie in Action!
Fin acts as reel pulling line in
and out.
Rope and all accessories meet
the United States Consumer
Product Safety Regulations.
Magnet in Allie’s “light” allows
little fishes to get caught.

25. Final Model

26. Jackson is Happy!
Jackson is ready to go fishing
every time he gets in the bath with his
new favorite toy, Allie the Angler Fish!
