Some sketch models and presentation boards of my first and second years of product design
Because what better time to explore and have fun with your design than at university…

Therefore, I chose to make my product for sex workers as they are often overlooked or discriminated against.](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60da89d899c93c16e99f11c6/1625036269122-EF5QO3AV0WGBRHVU2A7C/Presentation%2Bboard1.jpg)

For this assignment, we needed to design a jigsaw for a chosen brand, in this case, Dyson. We were asked to use Solidworks to bring our designs to life and then use Keyshot to make some flavourful renders.
