Iteration and Discovery

.  Design rarely arrives fully formed. It evolves — through trial, error, refinement, and persistence. This series follows the development of a small geometric form , from a loose idea on screen to a tangible, tactile object. Each stage — digital modelling , contour sectioning , 3D printing , sanding, filling, and finishing — is a layer in the thinking process. Working across analogue and digital tools , I’ve been exploring how geometry can be pushed beyond intended workflows to reveal unexpected results. The object isn’t just an outcome — it’s a record of learning, a reflection of praxis : the act of turning thought into form through making. Surface sketch (VWX 2016): First pass shaping the asymmetric patch; testing how far the loft tools can be pushed Wireframe studies : Contour lines and edge profiles compared to a simple solid—deciding how to build the curvature Refined sectioning : Contours cleaned and packed; checking flow and edge continuity before making the block Co...

Designing & Making

Image
Praxis : Definition Praxis (noun): The process of turning ideas or theory into practical action . It means putting what you know into practice — the act of doing, making , or applying knowledge in a real, tangible way. “ What Praxis Is About ” Welcome to Praxis - a journal about the journey of a designer and maker transforming an idea or problem into a tangible object. Here, I’ll explore how design thinking meets hands-on making , blending traditional analogue techniques with digital tools to form a smooth, iterative workflow . The goal isn’t just precision, but discovery - learning how digital geometry tools , sometimes pushed far beyond their intended use, can unlock creative outcomes not achievable by conventional means alone. Praxis is where experimentation , problem-solving, and curiosity intersect - where design theory becomes lived experience through the act of making.
