Project Description

I was working with this company named Stacks + Joules. They’re a non profit teen program focusing on teaching teens computer programming and wireless network management. They needed a new uniform for their students that better represented the program the teens were getting involved in.

Reflection

Stacks + Joules is a non-profit company that focuses on computer programming and wireless network management. The issue that they are trying to solve is the issue of outdated technology wasting more energy than it should. By working with these teenagers, they can help teach them many skills on commercial energy efficiency, at the same time helping them get jobs, and mentor them to sustain careers to. What they want to do is teach systems, so that the places that have automation can eventually waste less energy than it would using an outdated system. What I essentially did as a designer, was to design a line of clothes that they can wear while they learn, better representing what they do, while adding a little bit of flavor from where the program originates, to help differentiate this program from any other teen club.

I took notes from all of the meetings I was having, about every thing down to what the company stands for, where the company is located, I drew some mockups and discussed it with my mentor at the time. What I wanted to make was a design that represented the technological aspect, the way I did that is by incorporating actual robots into the design ( I like futurama a lot so you can see where the inspo from ). I also wanted to include different races into the design because its not only a specific type of people that can be accepted into the program. I went through many stages of design before me and my mentor agreed on the final camo design.
