MAPPING

Form follows function. They taught me for this everywhere I learnt the basics of product design, and I have always felt the sense of this sentence. The surrounding of an average person’s life contains much more inputs than we can receive. As a designer, my vision is that we must be able to decide that if the final outcome of our project is really a need for the world, or just a 1000th disturbing factor in our already overcrowded environment. If the answer is yes, it is an answer for a real problem, than we can talk about my craft. My craft is to find the best form and shape of this products which follows its function well, and not contain any useless parts. I did some successful project underneath this menthality, but there was a point when I had to face with a problem. During my previous semester at Budapest, I had to design a smart home system. I had to figure out what the system good for, what problem does it solve and the 3D product itself. There was a good plan in my head, but when I started design the shell of the system I couldn’t be efficient anymore. I was not able to think about any shape which would fit to my idea. In the end of course I finished it, but to be honest, that was my first outcome that I was really not satisfied. I get my grade and have not though about it anymore until the digital craft. When I start making my projects to digital craft I was not sure what is my position here, and what exactly I want to do. I saw people around me making their own digital stuffs, but the only think I was able to recognize was the cables. I tried build something, but
