I chose this design to sketch because i thought it was intriguing. Cars are a very common thing in our lives now but we seldom stop to wonder how each car was developed and put together from scratch. This car was the first rear engined vehicle so i just thought it was interesting to see how its form related to its function.
"Marc I" Chair: Marc Newson
This product captured my attention because of its shape. This doesn't look like a very comfortable seat and probably isn't but the shapes that are combined to make this chair creates an interesting look. It would be more of a sculptural piece rather than a practical piece.
Catalytic Converter: 1980
This was also another invention that amazed me because it has to do with cars. Its an improvement to cars. A design that is meant to facilitate another one which is almost like redesigning the car itself. This would be a perfect example of form follows function. Everything about this converter does its job properly and there aren't really any extra parts but partly because this product would not be seen.
VentrAssist Heart Pump: Ventracor
This intricate design is both aesthetically pleasing and very useful. This is the type of design i would aspire to come up with because it not only looks attractive for what it does but its also something that changes peoples lives in a good way. This is the type of organic design that i think is successful. The shape is taken from something already available made by nature and its function is to assist rather than to do something for you.
